Sewage Treatment Plants

Sewage treatment plants produce a level of treatment that allows the resulting effluent to be discharged directly into ditches, streams and rivers. Providing a modern alternative to septic tanks, these systems are the preferred choice for regulators.

In November 2023 we had a Tricel treatment plant installed by Mantair and found them to be excellent in every way. They handled a difficult job on an SSSI site in trying weather conditions. The company handled the permission required from the Environment Agency. Their installers, Ryan and Sam were very helpful and friendly and worked really hard to get the job done. They made a great job of clearing up after they had finished and supplied new gravel for our car parking area and even re-seeded our lawn! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mantair to anyone considering a new system, they are a very professional company to deal with. Very happy customer.

After having a problem with my septic tank I gave mantair a call to see if they could help, I spoke to Kevin and we quickly arranged a day for an on site meeting to discuss any works to be carried out. Kevin quickly diagnosed the problem and advised me of the work needed. A very genuine person and company which I have no hesitation in recommending.

Drove all the way from Essex to North Wales to install a new system on my septic tank. Exceptional Service from Sam & Luke. Polite, Courteous, Helpful and Friendly. Nothing too much trouble for them and they left the area they were working in immaculate. Explained to me how the system worked and answered all my questions without me feeling stupid or a bother to them. I can not recommend this company enough - from start to finish from the planner to the installation ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. Can not recommend enough. Thank you guys very, very much.

Had a new system installed just a few weeks ago. The discharge pump has failed for the second time. To be fair Mantair got an engineer out on the next working day and he investigated and corrected the issue. Fingers crossed.

Superb service in site assessment of our current septic tank and advice after inspection. Kev from Mantair was able to come and inspect the same day we called and the information he provided was professional, clear and very informative. We highly recommend Mantair after seeing work undertaken at a neighbours property and also our direct contact.

Mantair replaced the failing septic tank at our Care home last month. We've been hugely impressed with their service from the starting point of surveying the site and quoting to the stage of installation and completion. We'd like to say a big thank you to everyone at Mantair especially Steve and Ryan who were superb and made the whole experience hassle free for what seemed to us such a massive job.

Mantair are a first class team to work with. We had to replace a failed and shared communal drainage system servicing 8 homes, with a new drainage field and Sewage Treatment Plant. From start to finish Mantair were very responsive, professional, communicative, helpful, knowledgeable and reliable. Throughout, they handled all enquiries from the various homeowners and management team, as well as liaised with all the relevant organisations, building control, EA etc. The quality of work was excellent. It was a large, challenging and complex project to co-ordinate. The installation was delivered on time and the finish even included grass seeding! I would highly recommend Mantair and their team, Matt, James, Nicola, Rowan, Sam x 2 and the rest of the team who helped us.

Other Drainage and Septic Tank Services

From soakaways to replacement septic tanks and site inspections, Mantair have the experience to find a solution for you.

Septic Tank Soakaway

Every septic tank should have a soakaway / drainage field connected to the outlet of the tank.

A soakaway / drainage field is used for the disposal of the overflow from a septic tank into the sub-strata.

Replacement septic tank

Designed to be installed completely below ground, spherical septic tanks provide a traditional solution to sewage disposal needs for domestic dwellings. However, many authorities in the UK prohibit their use and in most instances a Sewage Treatment Plant should be considered as the first option.
