Repair guide

Leach-field warning signs deserve more than a quick guess

Persistent wet ground, sewage odor, surfacing wastewater, slow drainage or repeated backups may involve the dispersal area, but other causes are possible.

Keep the area safe

Keep people, pets and vehicles away from wastewater or saturated ground. Reduce water use until qualified help is available.

Pumping may be temporary

Removing tank contents can create temporary capacity but does not restore a failed dispersal area.

Expect property-specific evaluation

Soil, system age, loading, groundwater, components and prior work all affect the next step.
