"No one wants to replace their septic system, but if you need to â ¦. Call Bob. From begging to the end of the job, he made the process painless. He explained everything, how the system works and gave us options to fix the old system or replace. His crew was great, arrived when he said they would, worked quickly and left my yard/lawn in better condition then before the work started. Great company , great serviceâ ¦. Thank you!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Tom Howe and his team are a dedicated professional who takes his work very serious and it shows. A man of great integrity, Tom can sell you more but he won't. He will only sell you what you need. As a real estate agent, I see septic systems on a regular basis that have been poorly installed and failed inspections after just a few years. I have never seen a system that Howe has done that has failed. He only uses the best techniques and products so he can put his name and reputation behind them. As for my personal experience, Tom put a system in at my home and did so quickly and efficiently with no delays or excuses and it looked terrific when it was done despite the mounded look which he was very clever at blending in to the landscape. Take my advise, use Tom. You will not regret it."

FAQs for septic system repair projects in Merrimack, NH

Leach field failure can often occur due to a lack of proper maintenance, hydraulic overload, or environmental factors. When too much water enters the septic system—like running multiple large laundry loads back-to-back—it can overwhelm the leach field. Regular professional inspections, ongoing maintenance, and spacing out high-water-use activities help prevent failure.

A septic tank shows repair needs when noticeable symptoms arise around your home. Noticeable signs include strong sewage odors at fixtures, recurring pipe blockages, pooling water or damp patches near the leach field, and areas of unusually bright green or spongy grass. These indicators confirm that deteriorating components or clogs exist. Monitoring such signs and scheduling timely professional inspections prevents further costly damage.

Adhering to a strict, scheduled maintenance plan prevents septic system repairs. An annual inspection and a pump-out every three to five years safeguard your system’s performance. Additionally, only flushing waste and toilet paper, installing drain filters, keeping nonapproved items out of the system, and avoiding excessive water use help maintain your septic system’s health and efficiency.
