Septics & Wastewater

Find A Septic Plumber in Coffs Harbour

Installations, Repairs, Maintenance & More

At Solitary Islands Plumbing, our experts are experienced with a wide range of septic tank and wastewater systems throughout Coffs Harbour. While most homes rely on systems installed by the water supply company or the local government, homes on raised areas or far from sewage pipes often need to be self-sufficient. We provide installations, as well as maintenance and repairs to make sure your system is functioning properly.

Regular servicing will maintain and prolong the life of your septic system and reduce the risk of problems occurring. If you’re installing a new septic or wastewater set-up, we’ll help with every stage of the process, from design through to council permit applications and final inspections.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often do I need to desludge my system?

The frequency of desludging is dependent on a number of factors, including how many people live in the property. Frequent use of harsh cleaning products such as bleach, chlorine and disinfectants may mean you’ll need to desludge more often, as well as lots of food scraps, fats, oils and grease. If you regularly take strong medications such as antibiotics or blood pressure tablets, this can affect your wastewater system as well. To get a free quote for desludging your system, call our team on 0448 180 320.
What are my options to install a wastewater treatment system?

All properties not connected to the sewer network will require a wastewater treatment system to treat and contain all wastewater from the property. This may include a septic tank as well as a secondary disinfection process. Our team can help you choose a system that’s compliant with local regulations.
Do I have to have my system serviced?

Yes. Not only is your wastewater treatment system an expensive asset that you’ll want to maintain, but regular servicing also helps to protect the health of you, your family and your local environment. It’s also a state and local government requirement that wastewater treatment systems are regularly serviced by an authorised service agent.
