Whereas the existing installation was to a drainage field, porosity tests highlighted a lack of porosity in the clayey soils. There was a seasonally dry ditch on site which, after discussions with the local Environment Agency Officer, became the new discharge point. A bespoke EA permit was applied for with the understanding that the installation work could precede the permit submission.
The insurance company approved the quotation, WCI applied for a Building Notice and once all legalities were sorted, we started the installation work. After three days our clients were left with a new, fully compliant system and could use all the facilities!!

It just popped out of the ground! WCI received a frantic called from a home owner locally after their existing Biodisc sewage treatment plant was found to have ‘popped’ out of the ground the day after it was emptied by a licenced desludging contractor. WCI was able to visit site that same day, inspect the existing tank, undertake porosity tests and provide a quotation for submission to the building insurance.
