It’s important to recognize the early signs of a failing drain field to prevent costly and extensive damage. Look out for the following warning signs:

• Pooling Water: Standing water in your yard, particularly around the drain field area, is a clear indication of a problem.
• Slow Drains: If sinks, showers, and toilets are draining slowly, it might be due to a clogged or failing drain field.
• Unpleasant Odors: Foul smells emanating from your yard or inside your home can indicate a septic issue.
• Lush Grass: An unusually green and lush patch of grass over the drain field can signal excessive moisture due to a leak.
