A failed septic tank inspection can turn into an expensive surprise fairly quickly.
Most homeowners are not expecting it.
One letter arrives. Suddenly there are references to EPA compliance, groundwater risk, wastewater discharge and upgrade requirements. Half the time people do not even know where the tank is properly located on the site.
That is usually the point we get the phone call.
At Connacht Septic Tank Solutions, we help homeowners across Roscommon, Galway, Mayo, Sligo, Leitrim, Longford and Westmeath with septic tank grant upgrade works and replacement systems.
In many cases, homeowners may qualify for a government septic tank grant of up to €12,000 towards repair or upgrade works.
The septic tank grant is designed to help homeowners repair, replace or upgrade defective domestic wastewater treatment systems.
The grant is typically available where:
The exact grant amount depends on the situation and eligibility requirements.
Some homeowners qualify for substantial support towards the overall cost of the work.
We regularly deal with systems that have:
A lot of older rural systems were installed decades ago under completely different standards.
Some have actually held up surprisingly well.
Others are hanging on by luck more than anything else.
Most people are not familiar with septic tank paperwork, inspection reports or grant applications.
Fair enough.
It is not exactly something homeowners deal with every day.
We help guide customers through the process including:
The important thing is figuring out what actually needs to be done before rushing into unnecessary costs.
Two houses beside each other can require completely different solutions underground.
One site may only need upgrade works to the percolation area.
Another may require a full wastewater treatment system replacement because the original installation no longer meets current standards.
Ground conditions across the west of Ireland can complicate things further.
Heavy clay. High water tables. Poor drainage after rainfall.
That changes what systems can realistically work long term.
Connacht Septic Tank Solutions is a specialist division of Roscommon Landscaping, established in 1980.
A lot of septic tank upgrade work comes down to excavation, drainage and proper groundwork installation. That side of the job is often underestimated.
Bad levels or rushed excavation can shorten the lifespan of the replacement system before it is even fully settled.
We have been carrying out rural groundworks and wastewater installation projects across Connacht for over 40 years.
Not showroom work. Actual site work.
Areas We Cover
We provide septic tank installation services across:
If your septic tank has failed inspection or you have been advised that upgrade works are needed, we can assess the existing system and point you in the right direction.
Sometimes the fix is smaller than expected.
Sometimes the old system is beyond saving and needs replacing properly instead of patching it again for another winter.
