Services
Sewage Treatment Plants
We install and maintain EN 12566-3 certified sewage treatment plants that process waste into environmentally safe liquid discharge. Our systems operate quietly and efficiently for households and businesses. All installations include compliance paperwork and environmental agency liaison.
Septic Tank Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures septic tanks function optimally. Our engineers perform inspections, repairs, and effluent sampling to prevent failures. We service all approved models and provide rebuild options for aging systems.
Drainage Repairs
Blocked drains are resolved using high-pressure jetting equipment and CCTV surveys. We handle emergency repairs for residential and commercial properties, restoring drainage systems to full functionality with minimal disruption.
Pumping Stations
We install, service, and repair pumping stations for sewage and drainage systems. Our engineers handle all makes and models, including emergency repairs and complete system rebuilds to ensure reliable operation.
CCTV Drain Surveys
Our CCTV surveys identify blockages, cracks, and system failures in drainage pipes. This non-invasive diagnostic tool helps plan repairs efficiently, particularly during property transactions or recurring drainage issues.
