Septic tank and wastewater treatment system installation

Based in Ballarat, servicing Victoria-wide

Our team at Complete Plumbing Ballarat are experienced and qualified to carry out septic tank and wastewater treatment installations and alterations in Victoria.

The septic system installation process involves the following:

  • Site inspection and consultation to create a system design that will best suit your property and lifestyle
  • If building, obtaining a planning permit, septic permit, and building permit
  • Site preparation, excavation, and earthmoving with our equipment, heavy machinery, and licensed machine operators
  • Connecting the system, testing, and commissioning

Which septic system is right for you:

  • Septic tank with absorption trenches – not allowed on blocks smaller than 8,000 m2
  • Septic tank and sand filter with subsurface irrigation – not allowed in flood-prone areas
  • Biocycle wastewater treatment system with subsurface irrigation lines – suitable for large and small land sizes, flood-prone areas, and poor soil areas

The type of septic tank and treatment system design that you will need will depend on:

  • Property size
  • Slope on the property
  • The number of rooms in the home or building
  • Requirements from the local council
  • Conditions and recommendations in the Land Capability Assessment (LCA)

 

What is an LCA?

The LCA is a report prepared by a geotechnical professional, containing information that will help the council determine a suitable management program for residential development in an unsewered area.

What are the requirements to obtain a permit for a septic treatment system installation?

  • A permit to install or alter septic tank system from the local Council’s office or website
  • Payment for the installation permit
  • Site plan showing the property layout, the property boundaries, and the location on the site for the septic treatment system
  • House layout and floor plan
  • Current copy of title
  • Land Capability Assessment (LCA)

 

We can help lodge your septic permit, including septic plan and septic system information, with the local shire/council. You can also send us your Land Capability Assessment (if required), floor plan, and site plan, and we can provide you with a quotation.
