    ok – so having learned that – guess where my leach field is? under my driveway! I bought this house in april 08 and started having problems in september. 2 people live here and the previous owners were 2 people. the house is 2 years old! when i would do laundry, the toilet would bubble. and when we flushed 1 toilet the other would bubble. no odor or anything to see, just noise. so we called the septic tank guy and had it pumped out. it was full to the top with liquids. no solids to be seen on the top or bottom. 1 month later – toilet bubbling again. so we took the gray water and re-plumbed it away from the septic tank. and waited and hoped for the bubbling to go away. still hasn’t. the septic guy said we should replace the field, but the tank and everything has to be replaced all at once to pass code. so he says we have to replace the tank too. obviously we don’t want to pay for all that. any ideas? can the toilet be bubbling from a clogged vent? only 1 toilet is bubbling and the 2 toilets are at the same level.aardinger2008-12-16 07:35:00
