Recently I started noticing a foul smell outside of my door. Anytime I walked around my yard I would get a whiff of a foul smell. I started investigating and noticed that there was a bit of wetness on a patch in my lawn. After some research and looking at my plot of land, I realized that my septic tank has an issue. I called a trenchless plumbing company that does all sorts of septic system and drain line repairs. I was worried I would need underground pipe repair or something like that. It turns out that the trenchless sewer line option wouldn’t work for my household. They had to dig everything up because my drainfield was old and a mess. All those flimsy looking pipes were removed with hard plastic. The actual field was set up much better. Then everything was covered up. I thought the digging in my backyard would be a huge, invasive mess. It actually was quite nice. They dug out and into my woods. They then smoothed softer sand over top of the project. That area used to be on a grass patch and a lot of woods. Now it is a big sandy spot that is easier to walk over. The best thing is that I now know I have an up to date drain field and septic system. I won’t need to have that portion of my plumbing looked at for over a decade most likely. Sewer pipe lining went way faster than I thought and the cost wasn’t too bad for what they did.
