Common Septic System Repairs
Clogs:
This happens most commonly in households with kids. A toy goes swimming in the toilet and ends up on it’s way to the septic tank. It can get lodged along the way, or even get stuck in the exit ports to the drainfield.
To prevent septic clogging, avoid sending these down the drain:
Oil
Grease
Cotton
Diapers
Paint
Chemicals
Backups:
This is pretty obvious to spot, and is a sure sign that either something went down the drain that shouldn’t have or it’s time for a pump out. Backups can be a dangerous health issue if not corrected immediately.
Tree Roots:
Tree roots are a common cause for septic system destruction. Trees and other plants tend to grow roots into water sources, and a septic system is a large target.Doing regular pump outs and inspections can spot tree root problems early on and reduce the damage.
Damaged Lines:
If you are planning excavation or landscaping on your property, make sure you know where your septic system is. Digging without knowing can be a costly mistake and cause both the excavation and septic projects to be much more expensive than anticipated.

The #1 way to reduce the cost of your septic system over the years is to make sure to have it pumped out regularly. Get on a 3-5 year schedule with a septic company near you. This will be an easy way to prevent costly repairs.For tree roots any plumber or septic company with a power auger can remove the issue before it gets too bad.
Backups and clogs can usually be solved by “snaking” the lines to push the debris through. Clogs might also require a septic company to inspect the tank after a pump out.
