Dunwoody, GA Septic Line Repair

Posted on November 28, 2017 by relentless

In Dunwoody, Action Septic Tank Service repaired this residential septic system. The photos show some of our work.

septic tank service, installation, maintenance and repair alpharetta On this repair, the main line needed to be replaced. The existing line was improperly put together and had gaps along the inside. The line was blocked with tree roots, detergents and grease. To fix, we replaced the main line with PVC. This got the system properly flowing again.

The main line carries all water from your house or business to the septic tank. Inside the tank, the solids settle to the bottom, the oil and grease float to the top, and the wastewater makes up the middle later. The wastewater then exits the septic tank and goes out to the drainfield.

In Milton, Action Septic Tank Service installed a 1/2 HP sewage pump inside a basin. The photo attached shows the pump setup.

When the wastewater reaches a certain level, the pump begins to operate. It passes or grinds the sewage and moves it from the basin to the septic tank. The effluent then exits the tank and goes out to the drainfield.

Automatic sewage pumps have a float switch. The float switch controls the pump and triggers it to start when the water gets to a certain point.

In Alpharetta, Action Septic Tank Service found the outlet end of the septic tank and filter underneath the sidewalk. See the attached photo.

To service, we removed part of the sidewalk so we could access the septic tank. We recommended adding a manhole or moving the sidewalk to avoid future digging.

It is important to plan your landscaping and hardscaping. Keep trees and shrubs away from your drainfield. Run downspouts and irrigation lines in another direction. Avoid planting gardens nearby. Consider the location of your septic system before adding decks, patios, sidewalks, walkways, courts, ponds, pools and other hardscapes.

French Drain Installation in Milton, GA

French Drain Installation in Milton, GA

In Milton, North Fulton County, GA, Action Septic Tank Service installed a French drain to repair a drainfield. Check out the attached photo grid to see some of our work.

A French drain system uses a gravel-filled trench and perforated pipe to divert the flow of effluent away from your home or business. The water seeps downward through the gravel and into the drain. The gravel also acts as a filter to help prevent solids from entering the drain.

French drains disperse the water into the soil. This helps to keep your septic system from overloading and eventually failing.

Roswell, GA Drainfield Installation

Roswell, GA Drainfield Installation

In Roswell, Action Septic Tank Service added a distribution box to the septic system. The attached photo shows effluent correctly entering the distribution box.

The distribution box receives effluent from the septic tank and evenly distributes it to the drainfield. Gravity works to level the distribution box as the water flows out to the drainfield lines. This helps to prevent drainfield flooding.

Distribution boxes must be properly installed and inspected at the time of your septic service. The equal distribution of effluent will extend the life of your drainfield and keep your system running smoothly.

Septic Service & Line Repair, Alpharetta, GA

In Alpharetta, GA, Action Septic Tank Service replaced a septic line and outlet baffle. See the attached photos.

The existing concrete line from the tank to the drainfield was old and completely broken down. We replaced the line going out with PVC. PVC material is strong, extremely durable and lightweight.
