Four Generations Strong. Built on Hard Work. Driven by Solutions.
When your septic system starts giving you trouble, the answer isn't always tearing everything out and starting over. Sometimes it's a straightforward repair. Sometimes your leach field needs some attention. And sometimes, a new installation is the right way to go.
At BAM Septic Solutions, we're not here to sell you something you don't need. We're here to find the problem, get to the root of it, and figure out the best way to fix it.
From septic repairs and leach line replacement to TerraLift drain field rejuvenation and complete new installations, we bring four generations of hands-on septic experience and modern equipment to every job.

TerraLift Leach Field Rejuvenation
Over time, compacted soil and buildup can choke off a leach field, leaving wastewater & bio-mat with nowhere to go. That's where TerraLift comes in. Using powerful, controlled bursts of compressed air, TerraLift breaks through compacted soil, opening up pathways that help wastewater drain and absorb back into the ground.
- Less digging
- Less disruption
- Cost-effective vs. replacement

TerraLift questions
What is TerraLift?
TerraLift uses powerful, controlled bursts of compressed air to break through compacted soil around your leach field, opening up pathways that help wastewater drain and absorb back into the ground.
Why does a leach field stop draining?
Over time, compacted soil and buildup — including bio-mat — choke off the leach field, leaving wastewater with nowhere to go.
Will you tear up my yard?
No. TerraLift is a less invasive way to get your existing system working again — less digging and less disruption than replacing an entire leach field.
How much does TerraLift cost compared to a new leach field?
TerraLift is a cost-effective alternative to replacing your entire leach field. Call (530) 599-0993 for an estimate on your property.
