FAQs About Drain Field Repair & Replacement in Montpelier, VT

How do I know if my drain field is failing?
Common signs include soggy areas in the yard, sewage odors, slow drains, or frequent backups after pumping.

Can a drain field be repaired instead of replaced?
Yes, in some cases. If the issue is localized or caused by upstream problems, repair may be possible. We evaluate before recommending replacement.

How long does a drain field usually last?
With proper maintenance, many drain fields last 20–30 years, but Vermont soil and water conditions can shorten that lifespan.

Is drain field work different from septic pumping?
Yes. Pumping removes solids from the tank, but drain field service involves soil treatment areas, distribution components, and sometimes pump systems.

Do you handle other septic services if needed?
Yes. We provide complete septic services, so you do not need multiple contractors.
