What Is Septic System Repair?
A septic system is more than a tank. It includes the line from the house, inlet and outlet baffles, lids and risers, distribution box, drain field lines and — on some properties — pumps, floats and alarms. Any one of those parts can fail.
Septic system repair means identifying which part has failed and fixing that part, so you don't pay to replace components that are still working.
When Do You Need Septic System Repair?
Repairs are usually needed when a problem keeps coming back after pumping, when a component is visibly damaged, or when an alarm sounds on a pump system.
Damage can also come from driving or parking over the tank or lines, tree roots, settling soil after heavy rain, or simply age.
Common Warning Signs
- Backups that return soon after pumping
- Wet spots or sewage odors in the yard
- A cracked, broken or sunken lid
- Pump alarm sounding or a pump that runs constantly
- Gurgling plumbing throughout the house
- Roots visible in the tank or pipes

Septic System Repair in North Georgia
North Georgia's clay soils shift as they swing between wet and dry, which can crack pipes and move tank components over time. Mature hardwoods and pines common on area lots also send roots into older lines.
