Toilet backing up and not sure if you're on septic?
Why it happens in Cohutta
The town's building inspector page says building permits won't be issued without a septic permit. The mayor's page credits a past mayor with negotiating with Dalton Utilities to add public sewer, so some homes have sewer and many still have septic.
What to try, and when to call us
If you're on septic and every drain is slow, the tank may be full. A plumber or septic company can tell you which you have and whether it's the tank or the line.

What causes it in Cohutta

Drains slow after heavy rain?
Why Cohutta homes see this
The Ringgold station averages about 49.5 inches of precipitation a year. On septic, a soaked drain field can't take water, and drains slow down until it dries out.
When to stop and call
Cut back on laundry and long showers until the yard dries. If it stays slow, have the system checked.
