    Hi,
    We're hoping to get our garden revamped.

    Its uneven and littered with shrubs and small trees that are making maintenance a nightmare.

    Thinkin I need to start with the fact that the septic tank and percolation area are in there too... so before I go dumpin a load of new topsoil on there I should know if the percolation area needs redoing . right?

    So I would like to get it checked some way..

    Anyone able to tell me how to know if the percolation area is working?
    We're not up to our armpits in sewage.. no smell or anything.. tank isn't overflowing..

    Tanks been there since 1990 ... we'll be in the house two years in October ourselves..

    A friend reckons I should pay for a camera survey??
    Anyone able to recommend anyone? Or comment on the sanity of the idea?

    Thanks
