Septic Company is a vital component of wastewater management for homes and buildings that rely on this sewage treatment method. However, like any system that relies on biological processes to work, a septic tank can become damaged or fail. Fortunately, professional technicians can provide a variety of repair services to keep these systems in good working condition.

Among the most common repairs for septic tanks are replacing and cleaning septic tank parts to resolve clogs. Professionals also replace components that are deteriorating or beyond their lifespan. In addition to addressing these issues, professionals can help homeowners prevent damage by providing guidance on septic system maintenance.

Septic Tank Repair Options You Should Know

For example, restricting the use of garbage disposals reduces the amount of solid waste that is added to the septic tank. Additionally, homeowners should avoid adding chemicals, sanitary napkins, and wet wipes to the drains as these items can block the inlet and outlet. Regular septic tank pumping helps keep solids and scum from accumulating in the tank.

When a septic tank becomes severely clogged, it closes all soil pores and blocks wastewater flow from the house. A professional can pump the septic tank to temporarily relieve pressure, but a new drainfield may be needed to resolve the issue permanently.

Other signs that a septic tank is in need of repair include sewage odors, slow drainage or wastewater pools on the ground surface. These issues can lead to contamination of groundwater and surface water by nutrient-rich wastewater, and a professional should be called for prompt service.
