We at John E. Byrd, Jr. Trucking and Tractor Service LLC have major knowledge of the septic business, and we have dealt with countless septic malfunctions over the years. If you suspect there is a problem with your system, we encourage you to give us a call to get the effective repairs you need. In this article, our team will focus on our drain field repair services, going over a few ways to tell if you require them.
- Gurgling Sounds – One early warning sign of a drain field problem is gurgling sounds coming from your pipes. These sounds indicate that the drain field is not venting properly due to a blockage. If you start hearing your drains gurgle, then we encourage you to give us a call to have our drain field repair technicians check it out.
- Sewage Smells – When your drain field is working properly, it will keep all odors contained. If it starts to malfunction, then those odors will start to escape, making your property smell of sewage. If you notice sewage smells in and around your home or business, then we encourage you to give us a call to schedule drain field repair as soon as possible.
- Standing Water – A third sign you need drain field repair is pools of standing water appearing in your yard. This happens when the drain field fails, allowing the wastewater to leak out where it’s not supposed to. If parts of your yard always seem muddy, even when it hasn’t rained recently, we encourage you to get your drain field checked out.
