Permits In Hays County

Who Permits A Septic System In Hays County

If your home sits outside city limits around Kyle, Buda or Mountain City, your Hays County septic permit comes from Hays County Development Services (the county's form calls it an on-site sewage facility, or OSSF, permit).

Inside the City of Dripping Springs, the city runs its own septic program. Whichever office covers you, HomeField Travis County handles the permit on a new system. Repairs rarely need one, and when one does, we walk you through it.

Spray Heads In The Yard Mean A Maintenance Contract

Not sure what you have? Walk the yard. Spray heads in the grass and a control panel on a post near the tank mean an aerobic system. In Hays County, a newly permitted aerobic system starts on a two-year maintenance contract, and Texas law sets an inspection about every four months.

An Advantage Plan covers that contract and keeps the schedule for you, so none of it lands on your calendar. Give us a call and we'll help you choose one.

SERVICES

Septic Services Across Hays County

Whatever your system needs, we handle it, in town or out on the county roads of northern Hays.

When you book septic pumping in Hays County, we find the tank and dig to the lids for you, with a heads-up before any deep digging. On an aerobic unit, we also check the aerator, spray heads and control panel while we're there, so a worn part shows up before it stops working.

You'll have our price before we start. If the tank is hard to reach, the yard is tricky or the lids are buried deep, say so on the call and the crew comes prepared for your lot.

  • Hillside lots and steep driveways
  • Pumped while you're away
  • A receipt for your records

When your system acts up, the likely cause depends on where you live. West of I-35, it's usually a moving part on an aerobic unit. East of it, it's often a drainfield in heavy clay that barely drains.

Call us and describe what's going on, and we'll tell you over the phone what you most likely need. Nothing gets repaired before you say yes, so you decide what gets done.

  • Aerators, pumps and spray heads
  • Clay drainfields east of I-35
  • Work starts on your OK

Building on acreage outside Kyle or off US-290 near Dripping Springs means the system has to suit the lot, and here the lot usually calls for an aerobic unit rather than a standard tank and drainfield.

We match a licensed designer to your lot, and our crew does the install. One call covers the design and the build, so you aren't coordinating separate companies. The ground sets most of the price, rock or clay, and the design follows from it; call with the address and we'll give you a read on yours.

  • Aerobic units with spray heads
  • Planned around your lot
  • Design and build in one call

Own an aerobic system in northern Hays? State law has it inspected roughly every four months, and keeping up is our job. We handle all of your legally required inspections with an Advantage Plan. Give us a call to match one to your system; plans start at $39 a month.

Every plan visit looks the whole system over, aerator, spray heads and control panel included. Each inspection is filed with the county, so you never have to track dates or forms.

  • Moving parts looked over
  • Filed with the county for you
  • Plans that cover the schedule

Your lot decides your design. Where limestone sits a few inches down, the soil depth a trench needs often isn't there, and where the clay runs deep, a standard drainfield won't drain.

We run the project from start to finish. A licensed designer picked for your kind of ground draws the plan, and the design itself comes back quickly. The permit is what takes time, months rather than weeks depending on whose desk it lands on, and we handle that part.

  • A designer picked for your ground
  • Fitted to rock or clay
  • One project, run by us

Buying or selling a home on septic in Kyle, Buda, Mountain City or Dripping Springs? Before the sale closes, a septic inspection is required, and ours fulfills it.

We test the full system, inspect every part, then write up the findings in detail. Whoever orders the inspection gets that write-up, and so does everyone else in the deal, so buyer and seller see the same findings.

  • Whole system tested
  • Each part checked
  • One write-up for every party

If your shop or office in northern Hays is on septic, its tank serves a lot more people every day than a home's does.

Pricing follows the size of the tank, so the first step is a free quote. We'll schedule the pump-out for evenings or days you're closed, so it stays out of your customers' way.

  • Priced by tank size
  • Free quote by phone
  • Office parks and shops

A system for a business has to carry the daily flow of staff and customers, not a family's. On rural Hays land without city sewer, that usually means an aerobic system designed for the load.

We get it designed around your site and build it. Every commercial job is custom, so we quote yours for free once we know the site.

  • Sized for your daily flow
  • Matched to your ground
  • Custom work, free quote

A business on septic needs it working every day. If yours is acting up, the cause is usually a moving part on an aerobic unit or, in the eastern clay, a drainfield that can't take more water.

Call and describe the trouble, and you'll hear the likely cause before you hang up. Nothing gets worked on until you approve it.

  • Aerobic parts and controls
  • Clay drainfields that back up
  • Work starts on your approval

If your business runs an aerobic system in Hays County, it's held to the same maintenance rules as a home's, on the state's four-month inspection schedule.

Our visits look over the moving parts on that schedule. Every business system is different, so call us for a free quote on yours.

  • Visits on the legal schedule
  • Moving parts checked each visit
  • Quote fitted to your system

Opening a shop, office or venue on land without city sewer? The system has to fit both the site and the crowd, and in northern Hays the ground usually decides between aerobic spray and drip dispersal.

We choose a licensed designer to fit the site and the crowd, then run the project from there. Each project is different, so we'll price yours after a call.

  • A designer fit for the site
  • Run start to finish by us
  • Priced per project

WHERE WE WORK

Hays County Towns We Cover

If you've built on acreage off US-290 near Dripping Springs, in Sunset Canyon, Bunker Ranch or Saratoga Hills, your home most likely runs on septic. We pump those systems, repair them and keep their inspections on schedule.

In Kyle, city sewer covers the core, but homes outside the city limits still run on septic, and if yours is one of them we'll look after it. Around Buda, if your place is on acreage along FM 967 or FM 1626 with its own tank, we'll come to you.

In Mountain City, along FM 2770, the city's code sends a new septic design to both Hays County and the City Council for approval, so talk to us before you build and we'll get the design ready for both. If your system is already in the ground, we pump and repair it. Out near Onion Creek and along the county roads between the four towns, we come out just as we do in town.

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.

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!

Ground In Northern Hays

Your Hays Septic System Depends On Your Side Of I-35

Two Hays County homes a few miles apart can need very different septic care, because of what's under them. The soil changes at about I-35, where the Balcones line runs.

West of the interstate, around Dripping Springs, a thin layer covers limestone, so aerobic units with spray heads are the norm. East of it, on the east side of Kyle and Buda, it's Houston Black clay, which barely drains.

Why Most New Systems Here Are Aerobic

On the limestone side there's usually not enough soil for a regular drainfield, and the clay on the east side won't drain one, so most new systems here are aerobic.

West of I-35, your system has moving parts that need regular visits, and an Advantage Plan books them for you. East of it, if you have a tank and drainfield, pumping on time protects a drainfield sitting in that clay. Give us your address when you call, and we'll know which side you're on and what your system needs.
