Signs your system is failing

How fast it has to be fixed

If an inspection finds an imminent threat to public health, like sewage on the ground or backing up into the house, Minnesota rules say the system must be repaired or replaced within ten months. Systems that fail to protect groundwater must be fixed on the schedule in your local ordinance.

Repair or replace?

Broken lids, baffles, filters, pumps and pipes can often be fixed. Angi puts most septic repairs at $630 to $3,150. A drain field that has failed usually needs to be replaced: $5,000 to $12,000 for a new field, and $3,150 to $21,000 to replace a whole system, depending on what your soil needs.

System parts like pumps, alarms and treatment units are also serviced by licensed service providers.

Help paying for it

Many Minnesota counties offer low-interest loans for fixing or replacing a failing system, and some have grants for low-income households. Some loans are paid back on your property taxes. Ask your county's septic or environmental office. Examples: Washington County, Le Sueur County, Blue Earth County.
