Reliable septic tank plumbers in Bendigo

All properties, whether residential or commercial have sewer systems. Having your sewer system working properly is important.

It plays a vital part in our modern way of life where organic waste is out of sight and effortlessly removed from the property.
​
Depending on where your property is, you either have a sewer line connection to the main sewer system, or a septic tank.

Septic tanks are a common alternative to the city sewer system. They are especially common in rural areas where not all properties are connected to the main sewer lines and need to take care of their sewage waste on site. 

Whichever is the case for you, if you see any signs of a problem or a blockage, get in touch with your local plumber to have it checked out. If you are located in the greater Bendigo area, we are the best team for you.

Get in touch with Plumbing Bendigo to get your sewage systems checked.

Septic Tank Installations Bendigo

As we already explained, septic tanks are a way to process your sewage on the property, without being connected to the central sewer line.

The septic tank system is connected to your greywater and brown water drainage and consists of two underground tanks, allowing for a two step process, where the faecal matter is broken down and processed by an anaerobic process.

The Plumbing Bendigo team has an extensive understanding of everything to do with septic tank systems. We can advise on the best brands and products and do the full installation for the most economical price. Get in touch today.

Signs You Have A Blocked Sewer

Whether you have a direct connection to the main sewer line, or a septic tank, the symptoms of a blockage are still very much the same:

Foul Smell - If a nasty sewage smell is spreading in your home, it is a definite sign of trouble. Get in touch and we will send someone to do an inspection. 

Blocked drains - When you notice issues with drainage, it is also a sign of a blockage somewhere down the line.

Gurgling sounds - Hearing gurgling sounds from the pipes is never a good sound. It indicates that a blockage is forming that needs to be removed.

Blocked Sewer Repairs Bendigo

A blocked sewer can escalate from an inconvenience to a serious problem if not dealt with early on. Due to the unpleasant smell and potential danger to health, these issues are usually not left unattended for long. The risk of sewage being pushed back into the house is a risk no one wants or should take. There can be many causes for a blockage in your sewage system, whether it is a sewer line or a septic tank, the issues can be quite similar. 
When dealing with sewer blockages, the main causes include:
​

• Toys - It is a big mystery why kids do this, but they absolutely love flushing their toys down the toilets once in a while. This is actually the most common cause for a sewer blockage.
• Tree Roots - If people would disappear, nature would reclaim all the land really fast. This can be seen underground, when tree roots break their way into drainage pipes to access the free water supply.
• Fat and grease - Often people pour large amounts of fat or grease down the toilet as they are not sure what else to do with it. Grease and fat does not mix with water and can cause a blockage. The correct way to dispose of these substances is to wait until it cools and solidifies, put it in a bag or container and put it in a bin with the regular waste.
• Sanitary and other Waste - Nothing other than toilet paper should be flushed down the toilet. Toilets can not handle anything thicker, like hand towels, pads, tampons or any others waste.
