Septic tanks and drainage in Benoni

Benoni has a classic East Rand split: older suburbs like Rynfield, Lakefield and Northmead on the sewer, and a large ring of agricultural holdings in Bapsfontein, Putfontein and Kleinfontein on septic tanks. Many of those plots have soakaways that were never sized for modern household water use, and the area's seasonal wetlands and pans raise the water table in summer. Owners often add a conservancy tank or upgrade to a bigger septic tank. Honey sucker operators and tank suppliers work from Benoni industrial areas and Daveyton's edge, and plots in Bapsfontein sometimes face long hose runs. Ask your operator how far the hose reaches.

Typical concrete septic tanks requests in the area come from:

• Smallholdings and plots: stacked rings for a smallholding where a crane truck can reach the site
• Houses: a concrete tank to replace or repair an old two-chamber tank at an off-sewer house
• Farms and game farms: rings and tanks for worker housing, built with local labour and materials
• Estates and complexes: a large built-in-place tank shared by cottages, with a lid rated for vehicles
• Restaurants, shops and offices: a heavy tank behind a shop or garage, often under a parking area
• Factories, mines, sites and events: heavy-duty tanks for depots and works where trucks pass over the lids
• Schools, churches and clinics: large tanks for schools and churches, repaired during school holidays

What to include in your request
