What to do Septic tank unrepeatable

Well after more further in depth investigation of my secondary septic tank. There seems to be a void under a section of the tank leading it to break/collapse. So it cannot be repaired. Looking at my cost efficient option would just making my own septic tank using brick and mortar work? It measures 3.2 m x 1.1 m and 1 m deep.

It can work in China, or another third world country, herer in Canada we have building codes that must be adhered to... So in Canada, it won't work, in China, maybe it will.

End of thread, you are most welcome.

Seek the online resources available to you and get it up to code ! Consult your municipality they are your first tier of Government and are responsible for septic . No more silly beggars !
You have a record of your problems on a public forum .

Why do you continue to ask questions on a forum that condemns your disregard for life and safety?

How did you determine there's a void..........?

I'm not 100%, but I would assume the Ministry of the Environment would want to know about a septic system that has been leaking for an undetermined amount of time.

I think everyone needs to stop feeding the troll. Maybe he will just go away.

OP, it's cheaper to buy a huge plastic garbage bag from Alibaba and use that as a septic tank.

Drill a hole in your foundation to run the waste pipe through it.
