hi my name is Dina and my husband and I bought a home on June 1, 1999. We had to put a brand new septic field system in as the other system had completely failed and was basically nonexistant. We had a pressure field system put in. We are strata titled, which means that we live in a duplex and the system is shared by our neighbours. After only 8 months of usage our field is now soaked. We had 2 septic field guys come and check things out and they both stated that it was due to overusage. Our water bills since the new field system have been just below average. However, my neighbour's bills have been over double the usage as ours. We are unable to use our yard, and having 2 kids and a large dog (Rottweiler) we need a yard. Therefore, we are at a complete loss - we are unable to sell the property or reside in it. Does anyone have any suggestions?
