Emptying and cleaning of septic tanks in Pego

Please help to clear the way to the manhole cover or access point, remove any obstacles (plant pots, furniture, vehicles) and have any keys or remote controls to hand if there are any barriers. Avoid pouring strong chemicals down the drain immediately before the clearance. If you know the location of the nearest manhole or inspection chambers, please let us know; some photos of the surrounding area will speed up the operation and prevent delays.

Guideline: every 1–3 years, depending on capacity, number of users and usage habits (e.g. wet wipes, oils or fats). In second homes, the interval may be extended, but it is advisable to check levels after long periods of non-use. If you notice any odours, gurgling or slow drainage, carry out the sludge removal earlier to prevent overflows and damage to the ground.

We carry out the removal of sludge and water, high-pressure internal cleaning where necessary, and a basic inspection of the condition (levels, backflow, odours and apparent watertightness). We finish by leaving the area clean and the access hatches closed. Waste management is carried out by an authorised waste management operator in accordance with environmental regulations, with maintenance recommendations to prevent future incidents.

We assess widths, heights and turning radii before carrying out the work. Where access is limited, we use extra-long hoses or alternative connection points, prioritising safety and efficiency. We recommend clearing passageways, removing vehicles and coordinating keys/remote controls if there are barriers or fences. This planning reduces the time taken and prevents incidents.

Yes. We carry out CCTV inspections to view the inside of the pipework and locate hidden manholes. Based on our assessment, we propose the most appropriate solution: targeted cleaning, internal milling or repair without the need for excavation, where feasible. This enables us to avoid repetitive interventions that do not address the root cause of the problem.

During the operation, we check the records and, where appropriate, use high-pressure washing to remove any adhering residue. Once completed, we carefully remove the hoses, clean the work area and check that all lids are properly sealed, thereby minimising residual odours. If necessary, we provide guidance on how to ventilate the area without causing a nuisance to the surrounding neighbourhood.
