Sewage Treatment Plant Servicing in Telford
Annual servicing, repairs and health checks for all makes of package sewage treatment plant, keeping your discharge compliant and your warranty intact. Serving Telford and the surrounding villages, including Tibberton, Waters Upton, Ercall Magna, Kynnersley.
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.
Telford’s rural fringe has a high share of treatment plants relative to old septic tanks, partly because the moors and the gorge pushed replacements that way early. Servicing keeps them honest: a blower failure at a Waters Upton plant goes unnoticed until the discharge to a moor channel turns foul, and on land this flat and this wet a poor discharge travels. An annual visit with a written report is cheaper than the conversation that follows a polluted ditch.
Within a few minutes of Telford’s centre you reach villages and farmsteads that mains sewerage never reached. The north of the borough in particular, out across the Weald Moors towards Kynnersley and Ercall Magna, is dependent on private systems, and the gorge-side properties around Ironbridge and Coalport include older houses with equally old drainage arrangements.
Watercourses and the rules around Telford
The borough drains south to the Severn through the gorge, with the Weald Moors laced with drainage channels and the River Tern skirting the north. Watercourses near tanks are common, and on the moors a high water table adds its own constraint on what a compliant discharge looks like.
