What can go wrong with septic tanks in Northern Ireland?
1. Repairs required due to ageing of septic tanks
There is not always a large, dramatic reason behind your septic tank requiring a repair. Over time, drainage systems can age and their overall condition can become poor.
2. Lack of or improper septic tank maintenance
It is extremely important to maintain your septic tank correctly. This means it should receive a cleaning service to empty it regularly – approximately once a year. Additionally, septic tanks operate using electricity. Therefore, issues occur when electricity is incorrectly maintained. It can become faulty as a result.Â
