Advanced Equipment for Superior Results
Our custom-built drain cleaning and sludge disposal tanker is equipped with a high-pressure, high-delivery pump rated at over 3000 PSI (208 Bar) and 130 litres/min (28 gpm).
This allows us to:
• Clean underground drains ranging from 6” to 24” (150mm to 600mm)
• Effectively remove blockages, build-up, and sludge from your system
• Complete jobs quickly, cleanly, and with minimal disruption
Septic Tank Maintenance
To keep your septic tank or biocycle wastewater treatment system running efficiently, it’s recommended that tanks are emptied at least once a year.
Regular desludging prevents:
• The build-up of solids and sludge
• Blockages in pipes and drains
• Damage to the percolation area

Before Booking Your Service
To ensure we can complete your service efficiently, please make sure all manhole covers are exposed and accessible in advance of our visit.
• If your tank lids are covered by grass or soil, you must dig around the lids to fully expose them.
• A full desludging cannot be completed through ventilation pipes.
Proper preparation helps us ensure your tank is emptied and cleaned correctly, protecting your system from future issues.
