The Problem

Over 80% of drain field failures are fully repairable through restoration of the aged and clogged soil. Using certified advanced technology, we can often restore and save the existing drain field without the need for any system replacement. When soil clogs, it slows the wastewater from moving downward through the soil and typically causes raw sewage water to surface on or around the drain field. Over time, an organic ‘biomat’ is created by bacteria and inhibits the soil’s filtering action of the water through the drain field, eventually building to the point where the ground becomes saturated and cannot accept any more liquid. The sewage then typically comes up through the ground to the surface posing a health and safety risk for you, your family and pets, and your property.

The Solution

SludgeHammer® technology, equipment, and process work organically to consume the problematic biomat in the soil and other organic material throughout the entire system. By remediating the drain field area, effluent is once again able to flow freely.

This natural approach introduces an oxygen-rich environment combined with a patented blend of aerobic bacteria found in nature. These microbes aggressively digest the organic biomat by taking up residence in both the septic tank and drain field.


The most noticeable results include:

  • Clearer drain field function
  • Extended system life
  • Complete lack of odor (even in the septic tank)

The Benefits

The most noticeable results include:

  • Restores septic systems without costly replacement
  • Natural, environmentally friendly process
  • Eliminates odors throughout the system
  • Extends the life of your existing drain field or sand mound

  • Proof of property ownership is supplied.
  • Maintenance continues annually with a certified representative.
  • The system remains in its original location and complies with Health Department permits and specifications.

What Does Your Drain Field Do?

Your drain field functions as an integral part of your septic system. It filters the water that leaves your septic tank through the soil, removing pollutants and pathogens to safely reintroduce the water back into the environment.

Problems occur, however, when over time, the filtering action of the soil is restricted by a slimy bacterial mucus that coats granules until they literally join together, rendering the soil impenetrable. This prevents the wastewater from draining down through the soil.



We provide septic field remediation as part of our septic services. We use technology, equipment, and expertise to permanently relieve this clogging to ensure your home remains safe and your valued property and the health of your family is protected.
