Default water over septic tank

Leech field may need to be reworked or, as was in my case, one of my pipes
was blocked going into the tank. After snaking them all out, and power
washing with a power nozzle on the hose, the problem went away.

During the winter my septic system backed up into my basement laundry

tubs
so I had the tank pumped, (it had not been done in quite a few years).

Now
that the snow has melted I notice that whenever I do a load of laundry,
water puddles over top of the septic tank. After a while it drains away.
What would be causing this to happen?


Sounds like your drainfield has failed......
