Through a series of frost heaves, it look like the seal on my septic tank is leaking. See ground water coming into the tank. Am I going to have to replace it, or can it be fixed?

I think I'd look at the ground around there are figure out what is happening first is it not deep enough? No sense fixing it if is going to break again.

Years back i had to get Strathcona Septic to repair my tank. I thought they did a great job, had no issues with them. can not recall the cost.

AV multi grout it reacts with water and forms a. Flexible seal but it has to be done from the inside of the tank

How old is the tank if it is crumbling replacement is only option and where is the ground water coming in at.
