Leach Field Rejuvenation in Yuma, AZ and El Centro, CA

When your leach field stops draining the way it should, your entire septic system feels the impact. Slow drainage, wastewater surfacing in the yard and persistent odors are often signs of a struggling or failing leach field. At Apollo Drain and Septic, we specialize in leach field rejuvenation, which is a targeted service designed to restore your field’s performance, improve soil absorption and help you avoid the high cost of a full replacement. Call (928) 726-1199 to schedule a leach field evaluation.

What Is Leach Field Rejuvenation?

Your leach field is responsible for filtering wastewater back into the soil after it leaves the septic tank. Over time, soil pores can become compacted or clogged with grease, solids and biomat buildup, preventing wastewater from properly absorbing into the ground.

Leach field rejuvenation is a specialized process that:

• Restores soil permeability
• Improves drainage
• Reduces odors and surface pooling
• Helps prevent system-wide failures
• Extends the lifespan of your septic system

It’s an effective and far more affordable alternative to installing a brand-new drain field.

When Is Leach Field Rejuvenation Necessary?

You may benefit from rejuvenation if you notice:

• Standing water or soggy ground above the leach field
• Slow-draining sinks, showers or toilets
• Sewage odors outside
• Backups following heavy water use
• Lush, unusually green grass over the drain field
• Gurgling pipes or frequent clogs
• A septic tank that fills unusually fast

If you’re unsure, Apollo can perform a full system assessment to confirm the cause.

Our Leach Field Rejuvenation Process

At Apollo Drain and Septic, we use proven techniques and equipment to restore your drain field’s function safely and effectively. While every property is unique, our rejuvenation process generally includes:

System Evaluation: We start by identifying the root cause of the failure. This includes assessing the tank, distribution lines and drain field to confirm that rejuvenation is the appropriate solution.

Clearing and Restoring Soil Absorption: We use specialized tools and methods to reduce compaction, open soil pathways and break up the biomat that restricts water movement. This improves aeration and restores the soil’s ability to absorb wastewater.

Drain Line Treatment (if needed): If lines feeding the leach field show buildup, blockages or poor flow, we may use hydrojetting or other targeted clearing methods to restore proper distribution.

Balancing Flow & System Recovery: Once the soil and lines regain permeability, your field begins absorbing wastewater again, often within hours or days. The system gradually returns to balanced, efficient operation.

Clear Recommendations Moving Forward: We provide guidance on maintenance, water usage and long-term system care to help prevent future issues.

Our goal is simple: bring your system back to life without unnecessary excavation or full replacement.
