FAQs

1. What is a Cesspit?

A cesspit is a sealed tank for the reception and temporary storage of sewage. Because it is sealed, the tank must be emptied frequently in many cases as often as weekly. Because of the need for frequent emptying, the cost of maintenance of a cesspit can be high.
2. Can cesspits overflow or leak?

Yes, a cesspit can overflow or leak. Overflowing or leaking cesspits are an offence under the 1936 Public Health act. If it pollutes a water course, the Environment Agency may take legal action.
3. Why do cesspits smell?

A cesspit can smell because it has to allow for sewage gasses to vent and exit the tank. They need to be checked regularly so that you avoid overflows and know when they need emptying.

4. Can I clear a cesspit myself?

NO! Do not try to fix yourself and do not enter the tank as gases could suffocate you. If a cesspit leaks please call us so we can resolve the issue. We are trained, experienced and have the correct specialist equipment required.
5. What is a Septic Tank?

Many people confuse a cesspit with a septic tank. Septic tanks do provide a basic sewage treatment system and have an outlet to a soak-away. Hence, they only require emptying once a year.
