Rooter-Man Has Years Of Experience With Septic Tank Repairs:

Cracked Septic Tank Repairs

Cracks in your septic tank can go unnoticed until the problems become too big to ignore. When cracks start to surface, you could be dealing with leaking waste, contaminated soil, or even foul odors spreading through your property. At Rooter-Man, we treat septic tank repair as more than just a patch-up job.

For minor issues, we use high-grade epoxy to seal and reinforce the damaged areas. For larger cracks, our certified plumbers use structural patches or, in extreme cases, partial tank replacements to reinforce durability back to your system.

Drain Field Repairs

The drain field is where treated wastewater safely filters back into the ground, but blockages, oversaturation, or misalignment can put that process on hold. You might notice standing water or patches of overly lush grass. Rooter-Man’s septic field repair process starts with soil testing and diagnostics. We look for issues like clogged pipes or damaged distribution boxes. Using targeted methods like pipe flushing and re-leveling, we can restore your drain field back to like when they were new.

Root Intrusion Removal

Tree roots can break through pipes and cause clogs. It’s not uncommon for homeowners to see slow drains or backups caused by roots that have been quietly growing for years. Rooter-Man plumbers use mechanical root-cutting tools to clear out even the toughest intrusions without damaging your pipes. For long-term protection, we apply root inhibitors to prevent regrowth while keeping your landscaping intact.

Standing Water and Misalignment Repairs

Standing water around your septic system often points to deeper problems like misaligned tanks or blocked drainage components. This can lead to uneven wear on your system or worse, flooding and contamination. With us, misaligned tanks are repositioned, and drainage components are cleaned or replaced as needed.

Collapsed Baffle Restoration

Baffles inside your septic tank keep solids and scum in their place, directing liquid waste to the drain field. If it collapses, it can cause backups and possible field contamination. Rooter-Man replaces collapsed baffles with durable, high-quality models designed to withstand daily use.

Septic Filter Replacements

The septic filter keeps solid waste from reaching the drain field, and a clogged or damaged filter can lead to system failure. Our Chattanooga septic repair includes checking and replacing this filter to make sure your system runs safely without the risk of failure.

What to Expect from Rooter-Man’s Repair Services

System Inspections with Advanced Tools

Fixing a septic system starts with knowing exactly what’s wrong. We use high-resolution septic cameras to get a clear view of your system’s inner workings. These cameras travel deep into your lines to find cracks, root intrusions, and blockages without digging up your yard. We also use soil probes to test absorption levels in your drain field. Our inspections set the foundation for septic tank repair in Chattanooga, TN and other services.

Customized Repair Plans

Maybe your tank is older, or your drain field struggles with heavy use. No matter the situation, our certified plumbers customize each job to your needs. After our inspection, we create a plan that may focus on sealing a cracked tank, re-leveling misaligned pipes, or flushing out blockages in the drain field, depending on the need of your system.

Post-Repair Testing and Quality Assurance

No repair is complete without testing. Once the work is done, we double-check everything from your tank to your pipes and filters to make sure everything is in top condition before we leave.
