A Blocked drain. Or is it?
It's important that we realise what type of blocked drain operator is required to clear the blockage from a blocked drain. If we have a private sewage system and a blocked drain, there are crucial things about the drainage set-up that a blocked drain operator should know to avoid unnecessary and expensive damage.
What are the warning signs you should look out for?
1. smells
2. Water draining away slowly
3. A gurgling sound
The first sign of a problem within the house will likely be a gurgling sound when running the tap or flushing the toilet. This is caused by the air that has been trapped in the pipes. This could be an indication of a blockage.
You may have a private sewage system or a pumping station, but it would be prudent to choose a company that clears blocked drains and maintains pumping stations and private sewage systems.
If you are unsure what a pumping station is or want to know how we look after them, you can find out more in this blog article: https://www.asllimited.co.uk/drainage-blog/private-pumping-stations-pumping-main-public-sewer-controllable-factors-create

We know the difference between a cesspit, septic tank & treatment plant.
If your property cannot connect to a public sewer, you will need either a cesspit, a septic tank or a sewage treatment plant.
A cesspit (or cesspool) is an underground holding tank for sewage. It must be emptied regularly. Cesspits are generally regarded as last resort option when conditions preclude septic tank or sewage treatment plant installation. Read our blog entitled 'What is a cesspit?'
A septic tank is a multi-chambered underground tank that treats and discharges sewage water through biological decomposition and drainage. It must be emptied regularly to clear sludge from the bottom of the tank.

A sewage treatment plant is a multi-chambered underground tank that treats and discharges sewage water as clean, non-polluting effluent. It must be emptied regularly to clear sludge from the bottom of the tank. A treatment plant is often looked at as an upgrade from a septic tank. Read our blog entitled 'What is a treatment plant?'
