Cordova, MD’s Trusted Drain Field Restoration

Mr. Rooter of Mid-Shore wants our customers to get the most out of their septic systems and drain fields without tearing up their properties to replace them. Our team carefully executes drain field restoration to keep our work timely and thorough, with minimal yard disturbance. You may be a candidate for our process. Let our service professional assess your septic issues and property to determine if we can apply Terralift. We’ve outlined the process below for your benefit:

Penetrating your Drain Field

We penetrate your soil by three to six feet using a long-narrow probe and integral pneumatic hammer. The exact depth depends on your leach field’s depth. The probe forces air into your soil with a high-pressure compressor. The air creates a network of cracks and fissures, breaking up the biomass on the trenches’ walls and loosening compacted soil.

Controlled Use of Air Pressure

Typically, air follows the path of least resistance, moving vertically and horizontally through the soil in your leach field. Our team repeats this operation every four feet around each leach field trench, according to soil conditions.

Making a Diagram

Our service professionals use dots of yellow spray paint to make a diagram of your yard, marking where we will apply the Terralift process. This step lets you actually witness the moving earth in your yard as we carry out our work.
