Frequently asked questions
How often should I pump my septic tank in Houston?+
For a typical family of four on a 1,000–1,500 gallon tank, every 3–5 years is the sweet spot. Larger households or smaller tanks need pumping more often.
Do you need to dig up my yard?+
Only if your lids aren't already at grade. If you've got buried lids we'll dig a small access hole — and we strongly recommend installing risers so the next service is dig-free.
Can you pump aerobic systems too?+
Yes. We service both conventional gravity and aerobic (spray) systems across Harris, Montgomery, Fort Bend, Brazoria, Galveston and Chambers counties.
What happens to the waste?+
It's hauled to a TCEQ-permitted treatment facility. We carry full disposal manifests on every truck.
