Understanding Your Septic Tank: Essential Surveys in Chorley

Why Choose Us?

What Exactly is a Septic Tank Survey?

Think of a septic tank survey as a health check for your property's private drainage system. Unlike a standard CCTV drain survey, which typically focuses on the pipework, a septic tank survey dives deeper. Our expert team inspects the tank itself, the connecting pipework leading to and from it, and crucially, the soakaway or drainage field. We use specialist CCTV camera equipment to get right inside your system, identifying any blockages, cracks, root intrusion, or structural defects that aren't visible from the surface. This thorough inspection allows us to pinpoint issues that could be causing problems now, or might lead to them in the future.

Who We Are

Why a Septic Tank Survey is Indispensable for Chorley Homeowners

There are several key reasons why a detailed septic tank survey is a smart investment, especially if you’re in Chorley, Leyland, or any part of Lancashire relying on off-mains drainage.

  • Property Purchase: If you’re buying a house with a septic tank, this survey is non-negotiable. It uncovers hidden issues before you complete the purchase, potentially saving you thousands in unexpected repair costs. You’ll understand the system's condition and compliance with current regulations.
  • Persistent Drainage Issues: Are you noticing slow draining, foul odours, or soggy patches in your garden? These are classic signs of a septic tank or soakaway problem. Our survey gets to the root of the issue, allowing us to recommend the most effective and lasting solution.
  • Regulatory Compliance: New 'General Binding Rules' came into force in 2020. Our survey can confirm if your existing system meets these standards, helping you avoid potential fines or enforcement actions.
  • Routine Maintenance: Even without obvious problems, a periodic survey helps with proactive maintenance. Catching minor issues early can prevent major drainage disasters.

Our Thorough Approach to Septic Tank Inspections

When you call Avery Drainage Solutions for a septic tank survey in Chorley, you’re choosing a professional team with years of experience. Our process is meticulous:

  1. Initial Assessment: We start by understanding your concerns and the history of your drainage system.
  2. Tank & System Access: Our engineers safely access your septic tank and relevant inspection chambers.
  3. CCTV Camera Inspection: We deploy high-resolution CCTV cameras through the pipework leading to and from the tank, and into the soakaway system. This allows us to spot everything from minor cracks and displaced joints to significant root ingress or blockages like fatbergs.
  4. Detailed Reporting: You receive a comprehensive, easy-to-understand report (often in Wincan format for professional use) with our findings, supported by video footage. This report clearly outlines any defects, their severity, and our expert recommendations for repair or maintenance. We provide clear, straightforward advice, without jargon, so you understand your property's drainage situation fully.
