We consider the property's size, wastewater volume, ground conditions, and proximity to any sensitive environmental areas to recommend the most suitable drainage solution.
Based on our assessment, we advise on the best system for your needs – whether it's a traditional septic tank with a soakaway or a more advanced sewage treatment plant. We explain the differences, such as the need for a leach field, and help you select a system compliant with EN12566-1 standards, ensuring optimal performance for your property’s foul water drainage.

We meticulously install the soakaway or drainage field, ensuring correct levels and effective effluent dispersal. Our attention to detail minimises disruption to your property while maximising system efficiency.
Once installed, your new system undergoes rigorous testing to ensure optimal performance and full compliance. We then provide you with all necessary documentation and clear instructions on how to maintain your system, including advice on future septic tank emptying schedules and responsible waste disposal.

Why Choose Go Flow Solutions Edinburgh?

Considering a Septic Tank? How We Help Rural Properties in Edinburgh
If your home isn’t connected to the main sewer system, you’ll likely need a private drainage solution. This is common for many rural properties in and around Edinburgh, East Lothian, Midlothian, and West Lothian. At Go Flow Solutions Edinburgh, we specialise in fitting brand-new septic tanks and sewage treatment plants, making sure you get the right system for your property and that it’s installed perfectly.
Do I Need a Septic Tank or a Sewage Treatment Plant for My Home?
That's a really common question! Septic tanks are a more traditional solution, offering basic treatment of wastewater. Sewage treatment plants, on the other hand, provide a much higher level of treatment, discharging cleaner effluent. This often means they’re more suitable for sites with stricter discharge requirements or where a soakaway isn’t feasible. We'll chat through your specific needs, property size, ground conditions, and local regulations to recommend the best new drainage system for you.
When Is It Time for Septic Tank Replacement? Signs to Look Out For
You might need a septic tank replacement if your current system is failing, causing frequent blockages, foul odours, or soggy patches in your garden. Older, less efficient systems might also struggle to meet modern discharge standards. We can come out, assess your existing tank, and give you honest advice on whether a repair, upgrade, or full replacement is the best way forward.
Do You Install Soakaways and Manage Surface Water Drainage Too?
Absolutely! A well-designed soakaway is crucial for most septic tank installations, helping to safely disperse the treated wastewater back into the ground. We also expertly handle all kinds of surface water management, including installing French drains, channel drains, and other solutions to prevent flooding and manage rainwater effectively around your property. We cover both foul water drainage and surface water drainage requirements.
