Getting your lifestyle block sorted Septic tanks and drainlaying may not be a big focus when it comes to building your dream home in the country, but they’re a critical aspect of every job.
The experienced team at Hansen Contractors will make sure all your septic systems and drainlaying requirements are completed to the highest possible standard, so you don’t have to think about them again. Hansen Contractors in Rangiora is a familyowned business with more than 35 years’ experience in drainage and excavation. It also manufactures its own range of quality, reinforced concrete septic tanks at its Rangiora yard in order to take care of your total septic system and drainlaying requirements. “It makes sense for us to handle the complete package, including compliance issues,” says manager Peter Hansen.
The Hansen 75 septic tank features include: • Rectangular shape means a shallow hole for installation. Good for properties with a high water table • Dripline can irrigate garden or trees • Low power usage • Easy access for pumping out and maintenance • Tank buried below ground. Lids and control box at ground level.
“We consider factors such as groundwater levels, nitrate levels and the lay of the land before providing our clients with several options when it comes to the best type of system for their property. Rather than being biased toward one type of system, we prefer to offer a broad range of products and prices.”

• Alarm for high level alert.
The Hansen upgrade tank features include:
“We have now passed the 200 tank mark and the demand has increased with all of the building going on in the area. I am happy for people to come to the yard to view the systems and talk through their requirements.”
• Suitable for all soil types and high groundwater levels
There are three key options available to cover all clients’ requirements: the Hansen 75 aerated treatment plant; the Hansen 55 conventional three-chamber tank; and the Hansen Upgrade, which can be added onto an existing tank.
