Repair What Fails or Replace What's Gone

Complete septic system installation and repair services in Snellville, Georgia.

Septic systems in Snellville eventually show signs of age, whether that means a cracked tank, a failing drain field, or components that no longer keep up with daily wastewater demands. Some problems can be repaired if caught early, but others require a full replacement to restore reliable function. Knowing which path makes sense depends on the condition of the system, the soil on your property, and how much life you can reasonably expect from a repair.

When Repair Makes Sense and When It Doesn't

If your tank has a crack or a broken baffle, or if a specific component like a pump or distribution box has failed, repair is often the most practical option. We assess the damage, remove or replace the affected part, and restore function without tearing out the entire system. In Snellville, we often work on properties with older concrete tanks that develop hairline cracks or inlet pipes that shift over time, and many of those issues can be resolved without a full replacement.

After a repair, you will notice that wastewater moves through the system without backups, odors disappear, and your drains work the way they should. A well-executed repair can add years to a system that still has useful life left in the tank and drain field.

When the drain field is saturated beyond recovery or the tank has failed structurally, replacement becomes necessary. We handle excavation, new tank installation, drain field construction, and all the connections needed to bring a new system online. The work takes longer than a repair, but it gives you a system designed to last decades when maintained properly.

What to Know Before Moving Forward

Homeowners facing septic system repairs or replacements often have similar concerns, especially when it comes to cost, timing, and how the work will affect their property.

How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?
We perform a thorough evaluation of your tank, lines, and drain field to determine what has failed and whether it can be fixed. If the tank is intact and the drain field still absorbs water properly, repair is usually the right choice.
How long does a septic system installation take?
Most installations take several days depending on the size of the system, soil conditions, and site access. We keep you informed throughout the process and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your property.
Will you need to dig up my yard?
Yes, both repairs and installations require excavation to access the tank and drain field. We take care to limit the area we disturb and restore the site as much as possible once the work is finished.
Can I use my plumbing while the work is being done?
In most cases, no. We coordinate with you to schedule the work during a time when water use can be minimized, and we complete the installation or repair as quickly as conditions allow.
What kind of system will you install?
We design the system based on your property's soil type, lot size, and local requirements. Most installations in Snellville use conventional gravity systems, but we also install alternative systems when site conditions require them.
