Disposing of Dirty Water

[Dan]

im not green Dan and there is a lot of earth on this earth so its

Ashes to Ashes
Dust to dust
Keraflex Maxi to Earth

and the circle of life begins again

I was thinking more from a fine point of view to be fair. :lol:

If there is a skip on site, I use the existing rubbish as a filter and tip my water in the skip. Otherwise bushes, hedgerow etc, are always a good option :lol:

I know of someone who was working in a house doing some plastering, when he had finished he went to tip his wash bucket down the drain in the street, his customer came out and said to him that he couldn't do that as it was illegal ( his customer was an enviromental officer ). With that, said plasterer then said ok, where abouts in your garden do you want the hole, the customer asked what hole ? he was told the hole that he'd have to dig to bury the waste, the customer then changed his tune and told him to put it down the drain but flush it with clean water....so much for enviromentally friendly....when or who it suits

Cement based products (like tile adhesive and grout) are extremely alkaline. Good luck to any bushes you pour that lot under.

That's OK I carry the Mother in Law's ashes with me on every job. She was quite acidic so that neutralises it! :lol::lol::lol:

use a gorilla tub with holes in the bottom tip in some sand pour on slurry, make sure its off the ground slightly water will pass through the sand leaving rubbish behind at end of job just get rid of the sand , no digging holes or staining grids or drains

how big a hole do you drill?

I use natural filters :lol: - gravel, mud, full skips, grass, soil for the water, and the slurry gets scraped into my waste bin at the end of the working day.
