The jobs the truck gets called out for.
Everything TMP Civil Services handles, in the order people ring about it.
01
Septic
Septic tank pump outs
The standard household pump-out. We lift the lid, vacuum the tank down, check the outlet and leave the lid seated properly.
02
Septic
Septic tank installation
New systems supplied and installed, sized to the block and the number of people actually living on it.
03
Septic
Septic tank maintenance and repairs
Routine maintenance on a set interval, so nothing on the property gets to the emergency stage.
04
Septic
Septic tank decommissioning and removal
Septic tank decommissioning and removal handled on the same visit, so it is not another trip and another bill.
05
Septic
Septic tank lid repairs
Septic tank lid repairs — quoted before we start, and finished the same day where we can.
06
Tree
Tree root removal from septic systems
Tree root removal from septic systems — booked in, done properly, and left tidy.
07
High-pressure
High-pressure hydro jetting of septic systems
High-pressure jetting to cut roots and grease out of the line, not just push the blockage along.
How the day goes.
A phone call, and it is booked
One conversation. You hear what it costs, you hear when we can be there, and that is the booking done.
Finding it is part of the job
Under the lawn, under a garden bed, under a slab someone poured over it. We locate the lid and uncover it before anything else.
Hose to the tank, truck stays put
The hose does the walking so the truck does not have to. Sludge, crust and liquid all go, not just the easy layer off the top.
Nothing gets quietly noted
Whatever the tank shows us, you hear about while we are still there and can look at it with us.
The paperwork follows the load
Tipped at a licensed facility, recorded, and available to you if a council or a buyer ever asks where it went.
The lid goes back properly
Seated, weighted, and safe to walk over. That last part matters more than anything else on this list.
Known in Townsville for turning up.
