Septic problems can interrupt every drain and fixture in a home. Early diagnosis matters because a symptom at the surface may originate in the tank, piping, distribution box or drain field.
Warning Signs
- Slow drains or gurgling plumbing
- Wastewater backing up into fixtures
- Sewage odors inside or outside
- Wet, soft or unusually green ground near the system
- A tank that appears to fill unusually quickly
Start With the Right Diagnosis
Pumping can relieve an overfull tank, but it does not repair a broken component or failed drain field. An inspection helps separate maintenance needs from structural or drainage problems.
Possible Repair Areas
Depending on the system, service may involve accessible baffles, lids, inlet or outlet piping, distribution components or connections. If the drain field is involved, additional troubleshooting may be required.
