General Binding Rules: Cheltenham Septic Tanks

The 2020 General Binding Rules govern the use of septic tanks and wastewater systems throughout the UK. The rules were introduced to prevent wastewater discharge from harming the environment and the surrounding areas. Some of the key points of the 2020 GBR are:
Installation- Septic tanks must be installed and operated in line with the given instructions outlined by the manufacturer.

Maintenance- Owners of septic tanks must keep their systems well maintained with regular cleaning and emptying to prevent environmental pollution.
Waste- Septic tanks must not discharge into public watercourses unless this water has been treated in line with environmental regulations.

Treatment Plant Conversions in Cheltenham

In line with the new general binding rules, owners of septic tanks that discharge into watercourses will either have to purchase a new drainage system or convert their existing tank in line with the government’s regulations.

Our team of specialists can convert your septic tank, cleaning your wastewater to the same high standard that a treatment plant affords. Purchasing new treatment plants can cost upwards of £2,500 and this is without factoring in installation costs and the removal of your old system.

As the more cost-effective option, why not consider a treatment plant conversion? For more information on this process contact a member of our team today either by calling 01386 882324 or by emailing This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

Inspections and Assessments

Inspections and assessments are an important part of owning a septic tank. With these systems located underground, the approach taken is often out of sight, out of mind. Frequent inspections and assessments not only will help spot issues and septic tank problems early on but they also mitigate the risk of environmental damage waste products can cause.
