Soggy yard, standing water, or slow drains that come right back after pumping? Your drain field (leach field) may be failing - and it is often fixable. Serving Burgaw and all of Pender County.
The drain field (leach field) is where your septic system does its real work, and it is the most expensive part to replace - so we try to restore it first. Across Burgaw and Pender County we diagnose failing fields and repair, jet, or replace only what actually needs it.
The trouble here is the coastal-plain ground and how wet it gets. Pender County soils run from fast-draining sand to poorly drained lowlands along the Northeast Cape Fear River, and the water table sits high and shallow — after a hard rain the aquifer can't take any more, so water backs up into the drain field from below. You've got two problems at once: aging systems from the 1970s through the '90s wearing out all over the rural county, and brand-new installs on tight, wet Wilmington-commuter lots that were never easy ground to begin with. When it backs up into a tub or bubbles up in the yard, you want somebody local who can be out here quick.
