If you're concerned that there is an error somewhere along your septic system, it's important to contact a professional immediately.
Why Choose Mr. Rooter Plumbing for Whole House Water Shut-Off

Signs You Need a Septic System Inspection
Poorly running septic systems can be the result of a variety of different plumbing issues. From simple clogs caused by washroom and kitchen waste, to tree roots intruding into pipes and bursting them open, there is no way to diagnose the issue without professional knowledge and equipment. Septic pipes and tanks are more sensitive to chemical compounds than other piping materials, and attempting to fix a septic issue with DIY remedies can lead to more expensive repairs and larger problems. Some of the signs you need a septic tank inspection include:
- Poor drainage
- Waste backups in toilets and sinks
- Odors lingering around the home
- Uncharacteristically green and lush gardens over your septic field.
Save Your System with Septic Tank Restoration
Before you decide to entirely overhaul your system, consider septic tank restoration instead. By using our patented Terralift and HydroScrub methods, you can add years of life to your septic system. The Terralift machine forces controlled air into the soul and loosen up the leach field. This allows for the field to breathe and ensures proper leaching and transpiration. HydroScrub utilizes controlled high water pressure to scrub and break down buildups from the inside of the pipes. These methods leave no lingering sewage smells, waste residue, or environmental damage. Cleaning out pipes and refreshing the soil on your leach field is a successful way to save thousands of dollars in emergency plumbing bills, and add years to a septic tank's life.
If you're interested in septic tank restoration or would like a professional inspection of your system to diagnose any issues, contact us at Mr. Rooter of Abbotsford today!
