I am looking for ideas for a septic tank issue. I have a very small block of land (304m2) in West Queensland. The town is not sewered so that is not an option available to me.
The back yard contains a septic tank which has recently started to back up continuously. There are no blockages in the pipes that we can find. It seems that there are two gravel pits on the property: 1 for the septic and 1 for the grey water. From our explorations we believe there are no trenches branching away from either pit. The issue is that the area available (the ‘backyard’ such as it is) is about 8m x 8m.
From what I’ve been told there is insufficient room for normal trenches. It may even be too small for a treatment plant or at the very least, the water sprinkled from a treatment plant would be in excess of the yard’s requirements, causing it to become boggy. This is an $80,000 property which I am currently using as a cheap rental property and has provided a homeless man with a roof over his head and a secure place to live.
Does anyone have any brilliant ideas to help the septic drain better which will not cost me 1000s of dollars????
