A septic tank problem is never fun. You rely on your septic system to keep your plumbing in proper working order, so it’s essential to make sure it’s doing the job. Freedom Septic Service will be able to repair if you notice any problems.
Here Are the Telling Signs
If you notice these problems, then it may be time to get your septic system checked out because there may be something wrong with it.
- Bad Smell – if you notice a foul smell in your yard around the tank or coming from the drains, a drain could be blocked. It’s not draining properly, and it needs to be pumped out.
- Sewage Backup – if you notice raw sewage backing up into your toilets and drains in your home, there is a problem with your system.
- Pooling Water – if there is water pooling near the septic tank area, this could be a sign of a problem. Also, if the grass is greener in that area, this could be another telling sign of an issue with the tank.
- Slower Drains – if your sinks and drains in the house are slower than usual, there could be a clog, but if all the drains are running slow, then there might be a septic system problem.
If you notice any of these problems, or if you see anything else that may be abnormal, don’t wait to get your system checked out. Your home is where you live, and you never want to put off problems because this could cause bigger issues in the future.

I like that you mention that you should look into finding a professional to help if you have a slower drain since it could mean that there is a clog. My husband mentioned that the shower drains much more slowly than usual. I think we should look for a professional with experience in septic systems for help to see if they can fix it.
It’s interesting to know that greener grass near your septic system will be a sign that something is going on. I could not believe it because that is exactly what my husband said early this morning about our grass. I will make sure to call a professional septic tank company to see if they can find the source of that problem.
Thanks for mentioning how a foul odor coming from your drains or yard can be a sign of a blocked drain. My husband and I have noticed a foul smell that is coming from each drain in our house. We will definitely hire a professional company to repair any issues with our septic system as soon as we can.
It’s great that you talked about how a drain could be blocked if you noticed a foul smell in your yard around the tank or coming from the drains. I’ve been observing our property for quite a while now and I think there is something wrong with our septic tank. I should probably ask for septic tank drainfield repair services and have them take a look into it.
