  • Mr. Rooter® technicians begin every job with full system diagnostics. They’ll use a combination of experience and state-of-the-art equipment to find the issue.

  • We fix small leaks and cracks with patching materials and can replace broken pipes and parts as needed. Most repairs are minor, but if you need more extensive work, we’ll always discuss it in advance.

  • Clogs in pipes, baffles, and tanks can cause a full system backup. We’ll locate the issue first and then use drain snakes/jetting to dislodge it.

  • If your septic tank pump is old, making strange noises, or constantly malfunctioning, you may need a replacement. Our technicians will disconnect the power, remove the old pump, install a new one, and replace the parts.

What Causes Septic Tank Problems?

Poor maintenance and improper use (such as flushing non-biodegradable materials) are the leading causes of most septic tank issues, but sometimes, the fates conspire against you. For example, we’re called to innumerable backups caused by physical damage from ground movement and tree root intrusions.

Regular inspections can detect all of these issues before they progress into serious complications, and we also offer septic tank maintenance in Rochester to keep your system clean and functional.

Septic Tank Repair vs Replacement

Whether we need to repair or replace will ultimately hinge on the state and age of the system. We can fix many minor cracks and leaks, while also flushing the system, but for severe cracks, old systems, and frequent failures, we may recommend a replacement.

We don’t begin until you instruct us, and we’ll go through all of the options in advance. What’s more, our transparent, upfront quotes mean you know exactly what to expect before we start work, with no hidden charges or other surprises.
