Dealt directly with the contractor after that and was quite pleased with the work product. Bobs missteps really soured us on the project. Thank God Reliable Excavation was so professional, customer oriented, and did amazing work."

Septic system installations and replacements FAQs

Depending on maintenance and environmental conditions, septic distribution boxes last between 15 and 40 years. With excellent care and regular system maintenance, these components can function properly for over 30 years. Factors affecting longevity include soil conditions, proper installation, regular septic tank pumping, and avoiding excessive water usage that might overwhelm the system.

Warning signs of distribution box problems include unusually lush or soggy grass patches over your drain field, slow-draining fixtures throughout your home, and unpleasant odors in your yard. You might also experience plumbing backups, gurgling sounds in pipes, or multiple drain clogs occurring simultaneously. These symptoms indicate that wastewater isn't being evenly distributed across your leach field lines.

Most standard homeowners' insurance policies don't cover septic distribution box replacement when damage results from normal wear, age-related deterioration, or poor maintenance. Coverage might apply if damage occurs from sudden, covered events like falling trees or vehicle impacts. Some insurers offer optional septic system endorsements for additional protection. Review your specific policy details to understand your coverage options.

Septic professionals recommend having your distribution box and overall septic system inspected every two to five years. Some homeowners opt for more frequent checks, especially if they've experienced previous issues or have an older system. Regular inspections help identify minor problems before they develop into major failures requiring complete replacement. These preventative evaluations cost between $100 and $200.
