The effectiveness of your home’s drain field might be hindered by a variety of factors. Whatever the cause of the damage or inability to function properly, there is always the hope that drain field repair is an option, versus a complete drain field replacement. If you find yourself in a position needing a technician to come out and look at your drain field, be on guard for companies only looking to replace your system without offering repair remedies. While it’s true that after wear and time, some drain fields may need to be replaced. It’s true that some septic services companies can scam you into buying a whole new system when it’s not necessary.

Before you replace your drain field, contact Quality Septic Inc. You can decide whether drain field repair will justify the expenditure of repairs by getting an honest, professional assessment. While we can’t save every failed drain field, the staff at Quality Septic Inc. have a true talent for restoring them at a reasonable price. By meeting with us, you will also receive information about avoiding a future drain field repair. We also offer advice on how to maintain the overall health of your septic system so that you can avoid having to replace it and avoid future unnecessary maintenance costs.

The key to fixing a failing drain field is to catch it in time. There may be a problem if you notice foul odors, pooling water, septic sewage backups, or delayed draining. If these or any other issues start happening, contact a septic specialist like Quality Septic Inc. right away. If left unaddressed for too long, the system will surely fail.

Preventative maintenance is also paramount in preserving your drain field. This includes being diligent daily about what you flush down your toilet or drop down your drains. Items such as sanitary products, baby wipes, grease, coffee grounds should be disposed of in a proper trash receptacle and not in your septic system. In addition, your system should be checked by a professional every 1-3 years. Thorough inspections can often help detect any issues with your drain field before they become too damaged.

Thanks to updates in technology, we have found many drain fields can be fixed instead of having to be replaced. By evaluating and testing the entirety of your drain field for damage, we can appropriately gauge whether or not the drain field needs repair or replacement. Most likely, repair will be the best and recommended route. If you have any suspected drain field damage, we hope you will call on Quality Septic Inc. first.
