Sewage Treatment Plant Servicing in Ironbridge
Annual servicing, repairs and health checks for all makes of package sewage treatment plant, keeping your discharge compliant and your warranty intact. Serving Ironbridge and the surrounding villages, including Coalbrookdale, Coalport, Madeley, Buildwas.
A sewage treatment plant is a working machine with moving parts, and like a boiler it needs a routine service to stay reliable. Manufacturers require an annual service to keep warranties valid, and the General Binding Rules require your system to be maintained so its discharge stays within the standard it was designed to meet.
Plants in the gorge discharge into a valley that is watched on two counts at once. The Severn runs the length of it, fed quickly and directly by the steep tributary brooks, so there is very little distance and even less time between a plant falling out of standard and the river showing it. The World Heritage designation adds an audience that most catchments do not have. Annual servicing is what keeps a plant inside the consent it was installed under, and the service record is the document that answers the question when it is eventually asked.
Mains sewerage reaches the main gorge settlements, but the properties strung along the valley sides and the farms on the plateau above frequently do not have it. Cottages built for ironworkers and tile makers, converted works buildings and isolated houses up the side valleys run on private systems, many of them old, undocumented and inherited with the house.
