Save Money, Compare More Options, and Get Expert Wastewater Advice for Your New Home
If you're building a new home on acreage or a property that isn't connected to town sewer, chances are you'll need a septic system or Home Sewage Treatment Plant (HSTP).
What many homeowners don't realise is that you may not be required to use the wastewater contractor recommended by your builder.
In many cases, homeowners and owner-builders can obtain their own wastewater quotes, compare systems, and potentially save thousands of dollars while ensuring they get the right wastewater solution for their property.
At Statewide Wastewater, we work directly with homeowners, builders, and owner-builders throughout South East Queensland to provide professional wastewater installation, servicing, repairs, and ongoing support.
Can I Choose My Own Wastewater Installer?
This is one of the most common questions we receive. The answer is often yes.
Many builders have preferred suppliers and contractors they work with. While this can be convenient, it doesn't always mean you're receiving the best system, the most suitable design, or the most competitive price.
Obtaining an independent wastewater quote allows you to:
✔ Compare wastewater system options
✔ Compare installation costs
✔ Choose a system that suits your property
✔ Understand ongoing servicing requirements
✔ Make informed decisions before construction begins
✔ Potentially reduce overall project costs
Every project is different, so it's important to discuss your options with your builder and wastewater specialist.
