Off-mains drainage around Saxmundham
Coastal holiday lets and second homes around Saxmundham add seasonal loads, so plant sizing needs to reflect peak occupancy, not just the household that lives there all year.
Ground conditions decide a lot. Around Saxmundham it is clay to the west, sandier Sandlings ground towards the coast. That shapes whether a drainage field can work or whether a treatment plant discharging to a ditch is the better route.
Many properties here sit near the Fromus and the ditches that feed it. A septic tank that discharges to any of them does not meet the general binding rules and needs putting right.
