"David did a great job with our septic replacement and installation. He came in with the best quote. He was easy to communicate with and everything went smoothly. He did a wonderful job with the landscaping after the installation was completed. The grass grew back quickly. We wish we had done this sooner. Would definitely recommend his services. "

Septic Tank Repair questions, answered by experts

Perc rates vary dramatically, and a good perc rate could be anything from 5 minutes per inch of drainage to 60 minutes per inch. The lower the number, the faster your system will drain and the more effective it will be. A 60-minute-per-inch drain rate is the highest number considered to be good, or even allowable, draining.

The cost of septic tank repair is $1,775 for the average homeowner. However, depending on a few elements, you might pay as little as $170 or as much as $6,100. Location, repair type, and tank material all determine the final cost. For example, replacing the septic tank filter can be as little as $200 to $300. However, repairing septic lines costs more, averaging around $1,500.

While it’s possible to remove a cesspool and hook a home up to central city sewage systems, it’s more likely that the home is in a rural area, meaning a decentralized solution will make more sense. This means choosing from the many kinds of septic systems available, whether you choose one of the older types of septic systems, such as a chamber septic system, or a newer approach, like biofilters or aerobic treatment units. Each of these has its own pros, cons, and cost factors, so it’s a good idea to do plenty of research when making this decision.

Common problems include clogs, leaks, and drain field failures. Regular maintenance helps prevent major issues.

There are a few signs that can indicate the need for septic tank repair, replacement, or pumping. Some of the most common warning signs include the following:

  • Slow drains or frequent clogs

  • Particularly green patch of grass in one section of your yard

  • Standing water in your yard

  • Foul odors in or around your home

  • Contaminated water found during a water quality test
