SIGNS YOU MIGHT NEED

Design Before You Build

If one of these sounds like your project, it starts with a design. Tell us the address and how the business will run, and we'll take it from there.

Any Of These Happening To You?

Building where sewer won't reach?

Turning a house into a business?

Adding seats, rooms or event days?

Opening a venue or an RV park?

Old system can't keep up anymore?

Whichever one fits, one call gets the design moving and the permit lined up behind it.

Where We Design

Towns We Design For

We take on commercial septic design across Travis County and northern Hays; here's who reviews the plan in each town.

  • AustinAustin Water reviews its own area and every Lake Austin frontage lot.
  • Bee CaveIn city limits, the building official issues septic permits; out Hamilton Pool Road, we check who does.
  • BudaAround Buda, in unincorporated Hays County, the county permits your system.
  • Del ValleMuch of it is unincorporated Travis, where the county reviews the plan; annexed parts go to Austin Water.
  • Dripping SpringsOut US-290 in Hays County; inside city limits, the city issues its own septic permits.
  • KyleA Hays County town; outside city limits, Hays County permits the system.
  • LakewayThe city doesn't issue septic permits; LCRA covers lots near Lake Travis, the county the rest.
  • Mountain CityPer city code, designs need sign-off from Hays County and the City Council; we take it to both.
  • Mustang RidgeSplit between Travis and Caldwell counties; any system here needs a city septic permit too.
  • RollingwoodFor the parcels here that still run on septic, we take the design through to the permit.
  • Sunset ValleyAt US 290 and MoPac; tell us the parcel and we'll check how it's served.

HomeField fixed a septic failure that could easily have been sold to me as a drainfield replacement. Kris found the real problem, a seized distribution valve and heavy buildup in the line feeding the field, and corrected it. The system has run properly since. Honest diagnosis, fair price, no upsell.

Kris and Aaron were fantastic. The quote arrived quickly, explained everything, and was at a great price. The work was scheduled and the technician showed up on time and communicated to me exactly what was gonna take place and explained everything along the way. The work was finished on time and the invoice matched the estimate. These guys came highly recommended and I can see why. I would definitely recommend Home Field.

Easy to work with, quick to respond, and took time to locate the septic fields, which was not easy.

HomeField did a Septic inspection for me and my clients, and did an amazing job. When faced with Airbnb guests that we’re not supposed to be there, they were nothing but respectful and got the job done, provided a thorough and timely inspection, while keeping everyone happy. Highly recommend!

Call two days in advance to get a Septic Inspection and they squeezed me in for my client. They were prompt, professional and cost-effective. I will refer them again and again.

HomeField installed a new septic system for us a couple months ago. They did a fantastic job! And the service afterwards has been top notch as well.

Design In Travis County

Design And Planning For A Business On Septic

If you're building a venue, an office or a shop where the sewer doesn't reach, the permit starts with a design. We take on commercial septic design in Austin and the rest of the county, and see it through review.

Commercial septic design and planning is two jobs, the plan and the permit, and we run both. The designer draws the system and we take it through review, so you have one team to call instead of two. The build afterward is one of our commercial septic services too.

Sized For The Crowd, Not The Building

A wedding venue that's quiet on a Tuesday and full on a Saturday has to work on Saturday. Septic system design for commercial property is sized for the crowd the business draws, not the size of the building, and the soil under the site shapes the system that can handle it.

That's why the first conversation is about how you'll use the place: seats, staff, events, overnight guests. Get that right and the system fits the business you're opening, not a guess at it.

How It Works

From First Call To Approved Plan

01

Tell Us The Project

Tell us where the property is and how the business will run, even if the plans are still rough, so the design starts from your real water use.

02

The Plan Gets Drawn

We pick a licensed designer qualified for your site, who lays out the system around the soil and the flow your business puts out.

03

We Handle The Permit

Whichever office covers your parcel, we take the plan through review, so the back-and-forth is ours, not yours.

04

Ready To Build

With the plan approved, the system can go in. We install commercial systems too, so the plan stays with one team.

WHAT TO EXPECT

What We Need And What You Get

Commercial work is custom, so the price comes from the size of the system your project needs, not a rate card. Call us for a free quote.

3 things

To start we need the address, what the business does, and how many people it serves at full tilt. A site plan helps but isn't needed yet.

Permit

The drawing isn't the slow part. The office review is, and we carry the back-and-forth so you don't have to.

1 team

The same crew can build what was drawn and hold the maintenance contract after, so the plan never changes hands.

Local Rules In Travis County

Commercial OSSF Design Starts With The Ground

Two businesses a short drive apart can need very different systems, because the ground changes at I-35. (OSSF is the state's name for a septic system, and every design here is one.) West of it, along the Balcones line, thin soil sits over limestone, so your plan will most likely call for an aerobic unit with spray heads.

East of I-35, Houston Black clay barely drains and won't take a standard drainfield. That's why we draw a commercial septic system in Travis County for the soil under your lot as much as for the building on it.

Who Permits Septic Work Here

Which office reviews your plan depends on where the parcel sits. Unincorporated land goes through Travis County, while Austin Water, LCRA and West Lake Hills each cover their own areas.

On the Hays side, Hays County and the City of Dripping Springs review their own ground, and Hays County septic rules differ from Travis. Sorting out which office is yours isn't your job before you call; we figure that out and take the plan to them.

Why HomeField

One Team, Plan To Permit

You have a business to open, not a permit office to learn. HomeField Travis County works out of west Austin, and we run the design and the permit together, so a single phone number covers both.

Once it's running, we can carry the system's commercial maintenance contract too, so the team that planned it keeps it inspected.
