Septic tanks and drainage in Centurion
Centurion is mostly sewered, but older holdings and fringe areas such as Irene farms, Raslouw and parts of Zwartkop still run septic tanks. Many estates and complexes use shared conservancy tanks or small treatment plants that need scheduled pump-outs and checks. A large part of the municipality sits on dolomite, so a leaking tank or blocked drain is taken seriously, and sinkhole risk means water should never be left to pond near a tank. Operators serve the area from Lyttelton, Hennopspark and Sunderland Ridge, and Olifantsfontein is close by. Booking a regular service ahead of the summer rain season avoids overflow call-outs.

Typical drain unblocking requests in the area come from:
- Estates and complexes: jetting shared stormwater and sewer lines for a complex, with a camera report for the body corporate
- Smallholdings and plots: freeing the long pipe from the house to the septic tank across a larger property
- Houses: clearing a toilet, shower or kitchen line, or the outside drain that serves a house
- Restaurants, shops and offices: clearing kitchen, restroom and floor drains at shops and restaurants, often after hours
- Schools, churches and clinics: clearing long school and clinic lines, with planned jetting during the holidays
- Factories, mines, sites and events: heavy jetting of large pipes and stormwater lines on factory and construction sites
Local tips for Centurion
Most work in Centurion is done by teams based in operators in Lyttelton, Hennopspark and Sunderland Ridge, and the usual setup is shared conservancy tanks and small plants in estates, septic tanks on holdings. When you ask for quotes, ask your HOA who the approved service contractor is before booking.
Drain Unblocking usually means rods, high-pressure jetting and cutters, for 50 to 160 mm house and yard drains, as needed, camera check if repeat. Ground in the area: dolomite in parts: leaks and ponding near tanks are a sinkhole risk.
What to include in your request
- Which fixtures or drains are blocked and for how long
- Whether the house is on the municipal sewer or a septic tank
- Whether the blockage keeps coming back or happens after rain
- Position of the manholes or rodding eyes, if you know them
