Quick answer: A lift station moves wastewater uphill to the sewer main or septic field when gravity alone can't do the job; common failures involve the pump motor, float switches, or the control panel.
Duluth Septic & Sewer Experts
Atlanta Wastewater Solutions has become the go-to call for lift station repair across Duluth, from routine service calls to same-day emergencies.
Lift stations are the workhorse behind any property sitting below the elevation of the sewer main or drainfield. When the pump, float switch, or control panel fails, wastewater has nowhere to go, and a basement, restaurant, or commercial building can back up fast. See our full lift station repair page for the complete process and pricing details.

Lift stations push wastewater uphill to the sewer main or septic field when gravity can't get it there; the pump motor, float switches, and control panel are the most common failure points. That's the kind of call our Duluth customers bring us most often for this service.
Most of central Duluth runs on county sewer, though pockets of older homes and outlying properties remain on private septic.
Septic permitting for Duluth properties runs through the Gwinnett County Health Department's Environmental Health division.
Duluth's clay-based Piedmont soil, paired with decades-old infrastructure in some neighborhoods, means aging septic systems here more often need repair than a simple pump-out. Those local conditions shape how we approach every lift station repair call in Duluth, from the equipment we bring to how we schedule the work.
