Septic Pumping In Dripping Springs, TX

Pumping is $695 for tanks up to 1,200 gallons, and that's the price whether the system is aerobic or conventional. A bigger tank means more to pump out, so over 1,200 gallons we price it on the phone. If the builder's contract was the last time anyone looked at the system, the tank size may be in that paperwork. Give us a call with what you have, and we'll work out your number.

We pump both, and out here you're more likely to have an aerobic unit, since the soil over the limestone is too thin for most standard drainfields. The pump-out is one visit either way. On an aerobic unit we also look over the parts that treat your water, so you know they're working before we leave.

Give us a call, and we can usually come out the same day or the next. We're based in west Austin, just east of you along US-290. If you'd rather choose the day yourself, you can book online instead and pick a time that works around your own week.

It may be. If your system is aerobic and its first two-year maintenance contract lapsed, nobody may have looked inside the tank since move-in. A conventional tank usually runs 3 to 5 years between pump-outs, so a house from the recent building boom may be in that window now. Tell us roughly when the house went up, even if that's all you know, and we'll help you work out whether it's due.

Yes. If you've never seen your lids, that's fine, and there's nothing to dig up before we arrive; locating the tank is part of the pump-out. Limestone can sit close under the grass on these lots, so if your lids are buried deep, we check with you before going any further.

Yes. Tell us how to get in, whether there's a dog, and anything you know about the lids, and the crew handles it without you. In a newer subdivision the lids may not have been opened since the builder's contract ran out, so if they sit deep in the limestone here, you get a call before we dig any deeper. The price is set before we pump either way.
