🔧 Septic System Repair
Fixes for backups, soggy yards, broken baffles, failed pumps and drain field problems.
Warning signs of a septic problem include slow drains throughout the house, gurgling plumbing, sewage odors, wet or unusually green grass over the drain field, and backups into the lowest drains. The EPA lists these as common signs of system failure (EPA).
Common repairs
- Replacing broken inlet or outlet baffles and tees
- Repairing or replacing cracked tanks, lids and risers
- Replacing effluent pumps, floats and alarms on pump systems
- Clearing or replacing crushed pipes between the house, tank and field
- Drain field repair or replacement, which usually requires a county permit
Permits
Most repairs beyond simple part swaps need a permit from your county health department. In North Carolina, installers are certified by the NC On-Site Wastewater Contractors and Inspectors Certification Board, and the certification level limits which system types they may install or repair.
