Signs It’s Time for a Full Septic Replacement
Over time, septic systems naturally wear out. Heavy usage, soil saturation, tree root intrusion, or simple age can cause your system to fail. Warning signs include:
- Frequent sewage backups that affect multiple drains
- Slow drains throughout the house that return even after cleaning
- Pooling water or foul odors in the yard that persist in dry weather
- Soggy or discolored patches near the drain field indicate saturation
- Gurgling sounds from toilets and drains when other fixtures are in use
Ignoring these signs can lead to costly property damage, contaminated groundwater, and potential health hazards for your family and neighbors. Our team of septic experts provides detailed inspections, complete with camera footage and soil testing, to confirm whether repairs are possible or full replacement is required. Acting early can save money and reduce the scope of excavation.
