Commercial support in Perth Hills
Alongside the residential septic work there is a steady commercial load through the Hills: wineries, cafes and function venues with grease traps, schools and community facilities on their own treatment systems, and tourism properties whose demand spikes over summer and long weekends. Stormwater soakwells also fill quickly here, because the runoff carries a lot more leaf litter and gravel than it does on the coastal plain.
Access is the thing that separates Hills work from metro work. Steep, narrow and unsealed driveways, tanks well away from any hardstand, low branches and tight turning circles are all normal. Our trucks carry extra hose so we can reach tanks a tanker cannot park beside. If your driveway has beaten a truck before, mention it when you call and we will send the right vehicle rather than wasting a visit.

Perth Hills FAQs
How often should a Hills septic tank be pumped out?
As a general guide every three to five years for a household, but it depends on tank size, how many people are on it and whether it is a conventional septic or a treatment unit. If it has been longer than five years, or you are seeing slow drains or wet patches over the leach drain, it is worth booking.
My driveway is steep and unsealed. Is that a problem?
Usually not. It is the normal condition through the Hills and we carry additional hose for exactly this. Tell us about the access when you book so the right truck is sent.
Can you find a tank that has been buried or lost?
Often yes. Older Hills properties frequently have tanks with no visible lid, sometimes covered over by later landscaping. We can usually locate them, and a drain camera helps where the layout is not obvious.
