Septic tank maintenance is one of the less glamorous parts of rural living. It’s great to be in a quiet, secluded area, but living partially off-grid comes with some challenges, especially when you’re handling wastewater.
A septic tank can collect large quantities of waste, so you can arrange for the waste to be collected and taken to a treatment plant at a later date. As long as the tank is properly maintained and you remember to empty it on time, this works well. However, if your tank is very old, you may start noticing signs of leakage or slow-moving drains, indicating issues with the tank. Don’t wait until your tank or toilet is overflowing to call in a plumber. Take action promptly to avoid messy issues further down the line.
Common septic tank problems include:
Collapsed baffles
Leaking dip pipes
Overflowing tank
Tree root incursion
Depending on where the septic tank is located on your property, you may also experience issues with damage due to heavy vehicles passing over the tank, shifting ground, or changes in hydrostatic pressure. These problems can cause significant damage to the tank, or even push the tank out of the ground. Cases like this can require a full septic tank replacement.
