Septic tanks and drainage in Johannesburg
Most of Johannesburg is on the municipal sewer, so septic and conservancy tanks turn up in pockets: older homes in the south, plots on the city edge such as Lanseria and Diepsloot, and commercial sites where connections never reached. Conservancy tanks serve some new developments waiting for bulk services, and tanker trips to the Goudkoppies and Olifantsvlei works are common. Rocky ridges and clay mean soakaways drain slowly in summer storms. Honey sucker operators work from the southern and western industrial areas and cover most suburbs the same day, though peak weeks after heavy rain run behind. Ask what size tank you have before booking.
Typical concrete septic tanks requests in the area come from:
- Houses: a concrete tank to replace or repair an old two-chamber tank at an off-sewer house
- Restaurants, shops and offices: a heavy tank behind a shop or garage, often under a parking area
- Estates and complexes: a large built-in-place tank shared by cottages, with a lid rated for vehicles
- 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
- Smallholdings and plots: stacked rings for a smallholding where a crane truck can reach the site
