Workers get a surprise during Septic Tank contract

Although the maintenance, removal and replacement of septic tanks and sewage treantment works is a daily task for MTM Drains, no two jobs are ever really the same and this was certainly true at a recent job in Sevenoaks.

The MTM electraical team were in the process of completing a job in the Kent based town when they opened the customers electrical unit. Surprisingly they found an almost perfect skeleton of a rodent that must have wondered onto the console some time ago and unfortunately died before getting out again.

Throughout our work maintaining septic tanks and sewage treatment works we do sometimes find that external equipment (such as these electrical panels) require regular maintenance too, so it is always worth checking that any other devices are in good working order on a regular basis.

Regular inspections of tanks and treatment works will help to keep your systems in good working order and help ensure there is less chance of problems with the systems in the future. It also helps with the life expectancy of your system, as regular maintenance and inspections will flag up any issues that might arise in the future and potentially save money by preventing them from happening.
