Whether you have a new build in the country, or you need an upgrade for the farm dwellings, your septic/sewage system is one of the most important – and expensive – decisions you’ll make. The trouble is, most people don’t realise how easy it is to get it wrong.
Over two-thirds of sewage systems fail prematurely, according to council testing. Many don’t even last a few years before needing costly repairs or full replacement. That’s thousands of dollars down the drain – and often, it’s because the system was recommended by someone selling a particular product, instead of being focused on what actually suits your site.
