Sanders Septic and Backhoe

I have been experiencing water backing up going into two bathrooms on the first floor of our house. In addition, the toilets would bubble when ever they were flushed. If both were flushed at the same time, we experienced the backup in the shower and tub, and also water running out from under the base of the toilet in the master bath. I had called out a plumber to trouble shoot the problem. They found some blockage in the shower drain and removed it. They also rain a snake down the drain to try to clean out the drain, but the problem still remained. Mr. Sanders felt he could help us. He installs septic and aerobic systems professionally and has done so for commercial and residential services, but focuses mostly on residential. He informed me that most of the time, when he sees this type of problem, it is a blockage. I showed him the location of the tank. They dung down around the tank and found the problem. It turns out that the pipe going to the tank had been made of thin plastic pipe which was what was used many years ago. It had sprung a leak and was cracking. Also, tree roots had gotten into the pipe and were starting to grow in the pipe toward the house. Also, the septic tank lid appears to have broken years ago, and instead of taking it out, whoever did the repair just put another lid on top of the tank and left it as it was. Charles also found that at the mouth of the pipe going into the tank was blocked by a partial blockage almost 2 inches thick. There was room for a little water to get through. That would not allow water to drain into the septic tank correctly even if the pipe had been good. Only so much water would go in. When the pipe got full of water, then it would come back toward the house and I guess that is why we saw the flooding in the floor under the toilet and in the shower and tub. Charles did replace the pipe going from the house into the tank. The tank was also pumped out by Candy Septic Tank Cleaning. Everything seems to be working well now. Charles said if we experience a slowdown in performance of the system, it will likely be caused by the lateral lines and that will need attention if that happens. Charles also installed a cleanout drain as well so the pipe and the septic system can be accessed in the future should it be needed. I was very pleased with his work and will definitely call him first in the future if I ever have another problem of this kind. I would highly recommend him.
