"Tim came out and took a look at the roof.  I was a little concerned that my roof might need to be replaced because there are slight dips in the roof where the 4'x8' wood has dipped in the middle.  Tim explained that this was due to inadequate venting, causing heat+moisture to collect under the roof.  This moisture then gets into the wood and slightly weakens the board, causing it to dip a little.  He didn't think the roof needed to be replaced but did suggest we consider adding some vents.   His analysis was that there weren't enough vents on the roof, and this was easy to verify comparing my roof to my neighbor's roofs.  In the end, he offered me a couple different options, just replacing the boots, replacing the boots and adding some additional vents.  I went with just the boots for now.  The repair stopped the water from leaking in as it had been.

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

Your garbage disposal will only affect the health of your septic tank if you’re using it too frequently, or filling it with organic waste that doesn’t fully break down. If the tank fills up with too many solids, the bacteria won’t have enough time to consume it before more is added, which can lead to an overflow in the drain field. Your tank will need to be pumped more frequently with excessive or improper garbage disposal use.

Your garbage disposal is not draining because it might have a clog due to food waste, a foreign object, grease, oil, fat, or it may have a broken motor. When water doesn't flush out of the disposal, that's a key sign that your disposal has a clog or needs repair. 

Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.

To prevent drain clogs, perform regular maintenance and cleaning. Avoid disposing of substances like grease or coffee grounds down the sink. Additionally, installing and routinely using drain strainers can help catch debris and prevent blockages from forming.
