Over the course of time a drain field can either deteriorate, by the force of erosion or due to the septic system capacity increasing and the leaching or drain field not increasing in size.  A drain field rated for five users obviously cannot support 20 users without encountering problems during filtering of effluent.  Septic drain field repair is possible and is a problem Big Bexar Septic is experienced with.  If your septic field is marshy or swampy, or you are unable to remove sewer odors even after pumping and cleaning your septic tank, the septic drain field is likely your culprit.
