Prior to installation, we will secure council approval for your septic tank system. Dobson Excavations can supply, install and connect your septic tank system. If an electrical contractor is needed for pump installation, then we can also assist with this.

Where are septic tanks often utilised?

Septic tank installation in Perth (WA) is common in locations where a small-scale sewage treatment system is required or in areas not connected to the primary sewage pipes. The city government and private companies often regulate the public sewage system.

The installation and maintenance cost of the public system is also expensive. This is why Dobson Excavations encourage septic tank installation in Perth for residential or commercial properties that are away from sewage system lines.

Septic tanks are crucial in the recycling of wastewater. The septic tank system utilizes a natural filtering process to eliminate waste. Once the septic tank filters wastewater, it winds up in the leach drain. The soil then separates the microorganisms from the water. At this stage, the water is safe for re-use. This water can then replenish the water table, which benefits wildlife.

When we are installing septic tank systems, we take steps to guarantee we do it far from buildings, boundaries, water supplies like dams, and away from groundwater level. At Dobson Excavations, we take measures to ensure your environment continues to be risk-free, during and after the installation of the septic tank.

Transparent Communication on how to make the installation as economical as possible.

The long-term benefits of using a septic tank make the cost of septic tank installation much lower than that of installing pipes to the public sewage system. This is especially true if you need several pipes to route wastewater to the public sewage system, which is the case in remote locations.

Compared to the drain system, the maintenance cost of the septic tank is lower. When you are connected to the public drain system, you will keep paying the maintenance costs, at least up until you sell the building.

When identifying the cost of installing a septic tank, we will consider the size of the tanks and your location. The material we use for the septic tank will have an effect on the cost. Dobson Excavators believe in going over all the options to ensure that you can make an informed choice.

For example, concrete septic tanks are a lot more costly, but they will serve you for a longer period than plastic systems. Concrete septic tanks will cost you more money first, but you will be safe from future troubles, such as degeneration and damage.

Septic tanks are durable.

We suggest regular maintenance of septic tanks and leach drains pipes for all our clients. The number of times you pump out the septic tank depends on the size of the home. For a 2-person home, you may only need to pump out the waste every four years. Families with more members will need more frequent septic tank maintenance.

As your septic tank installers Perth, we advise the services of a certified liquid waste collection agency to pump out the tanks.

Perth septic tank: Appropriate tank treatment

The longevity of the septic tank installation Perth will depend on how well you maintain it. These ideas will aid you ensure it continues to manage the wastewater for several years.

When you contact Dobson Excavators to be your septic tank installers, we will determine most suitable place for the septic tank.

Ensure the water drainage system in your house is functioning properly.

Determine leaks and repair them quickly to keep large quantities of water from draining into the septic tank installation. The septic tank and drain field will last a lot longer if they do not get unnecessary waste streaming through the system.

Appropriately dispose of food waste.

When you allow food wastes into the septic tank, you will need to empty the solid waste from the tank often. This will increase the cost of septic installation, especially when comparing the maintenance cost with that of the public system. It is best to make use of trash when getting rid of large food wastes.

Avoid pouring oils and fats into the drains pipes.

Oils and fats will not only block the system, but they will also make it difficult for bacteria to break down the waste, which is a vital step in making sure the water released to the environment is safe and not polluted.

Separate floor drains pipes from the septic tank.

This is vital when the water drainage system in your home is being installed. Floor drain pipes will not only raise the pressure on the septic tank, but they will also increase the chance of oils, sawdust and even more wastes finding their way into the septic tank and cause it to clog.

Dispose of medicine in the trash, not the bathroom.

Many people assume flushing medicine down the bathroom is the safest method to get rid of them, but this is not the case, especially when using septic tank installation Perth for waste management. Prescriptions can negatively affect your septic tank, and over time, you may need to replace it, which may turn a once cheap investment into a costly one.
