Septic tanks and drainage in Brits

Brits is an irrigation and industrial town below the Magaliesberg, with the sewer serving the central suburbs and not much beyond them. The agricultural holdings around Hartbeespoort, Schoemansville, Damonsville and the Crocodile River valley rely on septic tanks and french drains, and the weekend and holiday houses by the dam add seasonal loads. Black clay and alluvial soil near the river and the dam are poorly draining and the water table is high, which is hard on soakaways. Factory sites and farm worker housing use conservancy tanks. Honey sucker operators work from Brits and Hartbeespoort, and the Gauteng side supplies tanks and plant.

Typical septic tank service requests in the area come from:

  • Smallholdings and plots: checking large tanks and long drainage runs before they fail in the rainy season
  • Farms and game farms: servicing homestead and worker housing tanks together, with simple repairs on the day
  • Houses: a yearly inspection and small repairs to keep the tank and drains working
  • Factories, mines, sites and events: inspecting site and staff facility tanks for compliance and safe working
  • Lodges, guesthouses and venues: six-monthly inspections before busy periods so a failure never hits full rooms
  • Estates and complexes: a maintenance contract covering inspections and filter cleaning across shared tanks
  • Restaurants, shops and offices: scheduled checks for restaurants and offices, with a record for the landlord
