Who do I need to contact about installing a new septic tank or soakaway?
If you intend to carry out works, to improve or renew the drainage system around your property, it is important that you seek the permission of any landowners, whose land you need to cross, and the owners of any drains/sewers that you want to connect into (see Building Drainage pages). You may also need Building Regulations approval for any works that you undertake and Planning Permission for siting a new septic tank.
