- Pooling water in the yard – Standing water around your septic area is a sign of an overflowing tank.
- Sewage backups – Wastewater backing up into your home is a clear indicator that your system needs immediate attention.
- Lush, overly green grass over the septic field – This may signal excess waste leakage into the soil.
