    Hey, I'm NO Pro, but is your Septic large enough? If it is, I'd still suspect the lines are not draining properly. Did this man flush out the vent-pipe going up through your roof, with the water hose? This can cause problems, but not sure just what kinds of problems. I do have a Septic, & they ARE vented, & it's important that they stay that way. Mine is an older Septic, though, & I don't know how the newer ones are done. I would get a few more opinions, though, from the pros , though. Maybe some will answer this, for you.
