"This company is amazing. I was working on behalf of an elderly gentleman whose home was out of water (air pressure tank). They worked out a schedule to meet his, arrived on time, installed a new tank and were gone in an hour. Very friendly and polite. I will use them again."

"I was told my drainfield would need to be replaced by a company that was pumping my tanks after they overflowed. The pump company gave me a quote to do the work. I called golden septic and a few other excavators for quotes on the replacement and got mostly voicemails. Travis and Kelvin from golden septic came out the next day and asked to try to fix the system first because they didnâ t think the drainfield looked bad enough to be not working at all. After digging up an area around the tank they found the pipe going to the drainfield was old and had broken not far from the tank. I ended up saving thousands of dollars by calling them."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

Pump the tank every 3-5 years, avoid flushing non-degradable items, and address leaks promptly to extend system life.

All municipalities in the U.S. require a permit for septic tank installation or septic system alteration, and the permit will usually cost between $450 and $2,500. Some municipalities also require permits for septic system repair. You’ll either need to contact your local building department or your septic tank company to ask if this is necessary before carrying out the work. Permits are not typically required to have your septic tank pumped, so provided your septic company is licensed, you can move forward with the work as needed.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

Unlike an urban sewer system that runs wastewater into a central drainage system, septic tanks are a house-by-house system. They are the ultimate destination for all your house’s wastewater—from bathtubs, showers, sinks, toilets, and washing machines. Wastewater flows into a tank buried in the ground outside your home, and then water runs from the tank to a drainage field using sloped pipes.

If your leach field becomes clogged or saturated, it can cause several problems with your home's septic system. The clog can cause sewage to back up into your home, leading to unpleasant odors and mess. A backed-up septic system can be a health hazard, particularly if the sewage starts to leach into the ground surrounding the leach field.

There are several ways to fix a saturated drain field, including cleaning out your septic tank, adding enzymes and additives to your drain system, and installing a larger septic system.
