Signs You Need Septic System Repairs

It’s not always obvious when your septic system needs professional repairs, but there are certain signs you can look out for that may indicate a problem.

Some of the most common signs that you need septic system repairs include:

  • Slow drains 
  • Backflow 
  • Sewage back-ups
  • Cracked tanks
  • Puddles and pooling water
  • Contaminated groundwater
  • Foul odors 
  • Groundwater contamination
  • Inadequate tank maintenance 
  • Lush areas of lawn
  • Tanks that are 20 years old or older

In some cases, these and other problems can be adequately addressed with professional septic repairs. However, some larger issues may call for partial or complete septic system replacement. When you call Hartigan, A Wind River Company for septic services, you can trust us to provide our honest recommendations based on the unique condition of your system.

Our technicians conduct comprehensive investigations, using state-of-the-art cameras and other technology to obtain a complete picture of your system’s health. This allows us to pinpoint any issues that need attention, including both minor and major problems. When appropriate, we may recommend replacement, rather than repairs. This may be the best option when the system is particularly old (more than 20 years old), has extensive damage, or when the cost of repairs is more than the cost of replacement.

The Benefits of Routine Septic Maintenance

The best way to prevent septic system problems is with routine maintenance. Septic system maintenance includes regular tank pumping—but it also goes beyond this. Proper maintenance includes regular inspections of the entire system and all of its components, including the tank, pipes, filters, mechanical parts, drain field, and more.

Some of the many benefits of regular septic system maintenance include that it helps:

  • Reduce Future Septic Issues: One of the greatest advantages of routine septic maintenance is its ability to reduce future issues and prevent emergency repairs. With routine inspections, you can identify areas of concern before they have a chance to become major problems. 
  • Protect Washington County's Environment: Poorly maintained septic systems can cause groundwater contamination and other serious health concerns, such as harmful contaminants leeching into the drain field and surrounding environment.   
  • Boost Septic System Efficiency: Regular inspections and maintenance help ensure that your septic system is not only working as it should but also that it is operating at maximum efficiency. This can help save you money and reduce the risk of future problems with your system.
  • Cost Savings on Repairs: You can save considerable money on future repairs with regular septic system maintenance. Additionally, a poorly maintained system could cause damage to the surrounding infrastructure, leading to even more costly repairs to your home or business.
  • Lengthen Your Septic System's Lifespan: Routine cleanings and tank pumping reduce strain on your septic system by eliminating sludge, waste build-up, clogs, and blockages. This, in turn, can significantly extend the lifespan of your septic system. 
  • Improve Home Safety and Comfort: Proper septic maintenance reduces the risk of groundwater contamination, environmental pollution, foul odors, and other unpleasant matters that can come with a poorly maintained or uncleaned septic system.

At Hartigan, A Wind River Company, our Vermont septic maintenance technicians have the tools, training, and expertise to ensure your system is working properly and at peak efficiency. We offer thorough system inspections and comprehensive septic system maintenance services to both residential and commercial property owners throughout Washington County and the nearby areas.
