Site Assessments & Percolation Tests

Waste Water Maintenance Limited provides expert site assessments, percolation tests and inspections for new developments and existing homes. Our extensive experience across wastewater systems allows us to understand exactly how a system should perform, from a greenfield site right through to long-term everyday use.

A proper assessment is essential to determine if a site is suitable for a septic tank or wastewater treatment system. Our tests establish whether the ground can safely receive and treat effluent and identify the most appropriate system design for your property. All assessments and percolation tests are carried out in accordance with the EPA Code of Practice 2021.

We also inspect existing on-site sewage systems to identify issues that may affect performance, compliance or future repair costs, giving homeowners and buyers clear insight before committing to a project or property.

Common issues found during assessments and inspections include:

  • Percolation issues such as poor soakage or effluent ponding
  • Drainage issues from the dwelling
  • Poor or outdated design and installations
  • Maintenance requirements
  • Desludging or emptying needs
  • System defects that may require repair or replacement

Whether you’re planning a new build or purchasing a home with an existing system, our assessment findings provide clear recommendations and tailored design solutions. We outline the system type, current condition and any issues present so you can make fully informed decisions before progressing.

With over 20 years of hands-on experience across Ireland, we deliver detailed, reliable assessments that ensure your wastewater system is safe, compliant and performing as it should.
