Does anyone know if someone has a septic tank, are there any ongoing
maintenance issues associated with them?

Or is it usually just a matter of having it cleaned out every so often
by a specialist company?

If so, on average how often would a septic tank be emptied; and how
much does this cost?

Any info is much appreciated...Thanks!!

50 quid a year emptying charge. One of the local farmers uses his
tractor, and takes it to the sewage works ......

Your water bills go down, no sewage charges.
