Septic Tank Repair & Replacement

Septic Tank Repair & Replacement

A failing septic tank usually gives warning signs before it completely gives up.
Bad smells outside. Slow drains in the house. Wet patches around the tank or percolation area. Toilets backing up. Gullies overflowing after heavy rain.

Sometimes the system is simply worn out. Other times, it was installed wrong years ago and problems have been building underneath the surface for a long time.

At Connacht Septic Tank Solutions, we provide septic tank repair and replacement services across Roscommon, Galway, Mayo, Sligo, Leitrim, Longford and Westmeath.

Some systems can be repaired.

Others need to be replaced fully before they cause bigger issues around the property.

We assess the condition of the existing system properly first. No point throwing money at temporary fixes if the entire setup underneath is already failing.

Septic Tank Repair Experts

Not every septic tank problem means a full replacement is needed. We carry out repairs for:

A lot of older systems across rural Galway and Roscommon were installed decades ago under completely different standards.

Some are still structurally sound. Others are beyond saving once excavation starts.

You usually know fairly quickly once the ground is opened up.

Septic Tank Replacement

Sometimes replacing the system is the only sensible option. Especially where:

We provide complete septic tank replacement services including excavation, removal of failed components, new tank installation, pipework and compliant percolation systems where required.

Everything is carried out to current Irish EPA standards.

Failed Septic Tank Inspection?

A failed septic tank inspection catches a lot of homeowners off guard.

Especially with older rural properties where systems may have been installed years before modern regulations came in.

If your septic system has failed inspection and septic tank repair is not an option, you may qualify for a government grant of up to €12,000 towards repair or replacement works.

We assist with:

A failed inspection does not always mean the worst-case scenario straight away.

But ignoring it usually makes things more expensive later.

Wastewater Treatment System Upgrades

In some cases, a traditional septic tank is no longer suitable for the site.

Poor drainage conditions, updated regulations or increased property usage may require a modern wastewater treatment system instead.

We install compliant wastewater treatment systems for homes, farms and one-off rural properties across Connacht.

Every site is different.

Clay ground in parts of Mayo behaves differently from free-draining ground in other areas. That changes what system can actually work long term.

Connacht Septic Tank Solutions is a specialist division of Roscommon Landscaping, established in 1980.

Groundworks and excavation are a major part of septic tank repair and replacement work. That side of the job matters more than people think.

Poor excavation or rushed groundwork is often the reason systems fail early in the first place.

No overcomplicated sales talk. Just practical site work done properly.
