Wastewater needs to go out of your home and into a properly functioning septic tank. Unfortunately, septic systems do not last forever. Depending on the type of system, septic tanks can last for upwards of 20 to 25 years. Their life expectancy is dependent on varied factors, such as
- Age
- Placement
- Frequent Maintenance (at least yearly recommended)
- Unique property and system circumstances
Soil conditions are another critical factor to the longevity and safety of your system. Improperly installed septic systems can leak raw sewage into the surrounding areas of your home and community. This results in environmental health hazards putting your family and neighbors at risk. Homeowners can avoid these concerns by having their systems correctly installed by professionals.

Signs Your Septic System May Need to Be Replaced
Homeowners should not be under the assumption that if their system still runs, it is in proper working order. You should look for indicators that can let you know your septic system is experiencing failures that may require repairs or replacement. The signs that a septic system may be malfunctioning include the following:
Slow Drains
Sinks, bathtubs, or toilets that start to drain unusually slowly – especially at the same time – can be an indication that a clog has formed within the septic lines. If the issue is not resolved promptly, it could mean costly replacement soon.
Foul Odors
An unmistakable odor inside the home or around the property is a sure sign that there is an issue with the septic system. The cause of the foul-smelling odor can be any number of things in your neighborhood. Atlantic technicians can let you know if your septic system is the issue.
Standing Water
An elevated level of standing water around the placement of your septic tank is another telltale sign that your system may be experiencing issues. It indicates that your system is not disposing of waste as it should. This could also mean a replacement may be of the system may be needed. An Atlantic professional can let you know for sure.
Lawn Appearance
Unusually lush grass around a septic tank may seem like a sign of a healthy lawn. But it could be a lawn that is receiving extra fertilization from leaking sewage. Keeping an eye on the parts of your yard near the septic tank is key.
