Repairing vs. Replacing Your Septic Leach Field

The leach (drain) field is essential for filtering wastewater into the soil. Minor issues, like clogged pipes, may be repairable with professional cleaning or treatment. However, if the field is saturated, damaged, or has failed completely, replacement is usually the only long-term solution. A professional inspection can help you decide whether repairing or replacing is the most cost-effective option.
