Soakaway Replacement & Repairs in Glastonbury
Soakaways diverting excess water away from your property, preventing waterlogging, standing water and flooding around foundations. When they stop working, the damage can escalate quickly. We repair, maintain, replace and install soakaways across Glastonbury, using industrial pressure washers to clear blockages and restore proper drainage flow.
Signs of a failing soakaway are easy to miss until they aren’t: soggy patches of lawn that never seem to dry out, a musty smell near the base of your walls, or water pooling on driveways and patios long after the rain has stopped. Left unchecked, a struggling soakaway puts constant pressure on your foundations, and over time this can lead to costly structural repairs. Catching the problem early, with a proper inspection and clearance, is always far cheaper than dealing with the aftermath of a full system failure.
Our team surveys each soakaway on site to identify exactly where the blockage or collapse has occurred, whether it’s silt build-up, root ingress, or a crushed pipe run. From there, we use high-pressure jetting to break down and flush out debris, restoring the system’s ability to disperse water efficiently into the surrounding soil. Where a soakaway is beyond repair, we design and install a replacement suited to your property’s soil type and drainage needs, giving Glastonbury homeowners and businesses lasting peace of mind against the region’s wet winters.
Septic Tank Emptying Glastonbury
If your property isn’t connected to mains sewerage, your septic tank needs regular attention to keep running smoothly. A standard 1,000-gallon tank typically requires emptying once a year, and we offer both one-off emptying and ongoing maintenance contracts. Our engineers also inspect the wider system during every visit, catching developing issues before they turn into expensive repairs.

Blocked drains are our bread and butter. Whether it’s a blocked toilet, a slow-draining sink, a gully backing up outside or a stack pipe that’s stopped flowing, we can clear it fast. We use high-pressure drain jetting, rotary mechanical cleaning and excavation methods where necessary to break through even the most stubborn blockages. Same-day service comes as standard.
CCTV Drain Surveys Glastonbury
Sometimes the only way to know what’s really going on beneath the surface is to take a proper look. Our CCTV drain surveys use a camera probe fed into the drainage system while one of our engineers monitors the footage in real time. This minimally invasive approach helps us pinpoint cracked pipework, collapsed sections, root ingress and hidden blockages without disturbing your property. CCTV surveys are also ideal for pre-purchase property inspections, extension planning and preventative maintenance checks.
Dedicated Drain Repairs in Glastonbury
Cracked, corroded or collapsed drains don’t always mean digging up your driveway. We use drain relining to fix damaged pipework without excavation wherever possible, and impact moling for low-disruption pipe replacement. For new builds, extensions and home improvement projects, we also handle full drain installation from start to finish.
Sewage Treatment Plant Installation & Servicing
As accredited Klargester installers, we supply, fit and maintain the full Klargester range for homes and businesses across Glastonbury and the wider region. If your property isn’t connected to mains drainage, a sewage treatment plant is a reliable, low-maintenance way to treat wastewater on site to a standard that meets current Environment Agency regulations.
