Septic tanks last a long time when properly maintained. Occasionally, you may need septic tank repair to make sure your system is working properly and there are no issues that can damage your property.
Here are a few of the most common signs that you need a septic tank repair service.
- Bright green grass. Green grass is the goal that many homeowners have for their yards, but if you have one patch of grass that has recently become greener than any other area of your yard, there may be an issue with your septic system. When there is a problem with the septic tank or drain field, sewage can enter the soil around it, causing the grass in that area to grow greener. Leaks are a major concern, so don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you suspect you have a leak.
- Backups. When septic tanks are full or damaged, a common side effect is backups. Backups are unpleasant to say the least, but they’re more than just a mess to clean up. They can cause further problems for your septic system, so you’ll want to make sure you address plumbing backups as soon as possible.
- Gurgling noises. Plumbing systems tend to make strange noises when there’s something wrong, and one common sign that you need septic tank repair is a gurgling noise coming from your toilet or pipes. Gurgling is typically caused by a break somewhere in your septic system.
