The biggest cost is usually the underlying problem. You may not know the problem until a professional visits, examines, and diagnoses it. The most cost-effective repairs are usually replacing the cover and tube. Lid repair is necessary when the existing one is cracked or no longer holds properly, posing a risk of injury to passers-by. It usually costs between $150 and $500. In situations where you have standing water in a certain area of your yard within the runoff field (also known as the leachate field), it could be due to a broken or cracked pipe. To remove it, it must be excavated and the damaged area replaced, which typically costs between $200 and $800 depending on the location of the damage.
Another concern is repairing the pump, which typically costs between $250 and $1,500 for repairs. A new pump will likely cost $250-$500 alone, not including the work of removing the existing pump and making other repairs as needed. If you have sewage backlogs with a non-working pump, the pump itself could be the problem.
Blockages in the line can be due to a faulty baffle, which also causes sewage to back up into the home or drain very slowly. If your sink empties very slowly and takes a long time, a clog can be obvious because the water is trying to work through this material. Baffle repairs can cost anywhere from $50 to $250.
