Your Local Septic Crew for Aerobic Systems: Maintenance, Repair, Inspections & Installs.

We are a full-service aerobic septic company serving Boerne and Kendall County, from the acreage subdivisions off I-10 and Highway 46 to the Guadalupe River places around Comfort and Waring and the ranchettes up toward Kendalia and Sisterdale. The four-month maintenance the state requires, an inspection before you buy or sell, a compressor or pump that quit, a spray field that is ponding, an alarm that will not reset, or a new system for a build with no sewer: we handle the whole aerobic system, and we come to your property to do it.

Out here the limestone and tight clay will not take a conventional drain field, so the county requires an aerobic treatment unit (ATU) that aerates, disinfects and sprays treated effluent over a designated area. Those systems have real moving parts, a compressor, a pump, a chlorinator, floats and spray heads, and Texas mandates a maintenance contract with inspections every four months. Most of the people who call us are new to the Hill Country or under contract on a Kendall County home and have never owned a septic system. Tell us where the property is and what it is doing, and we will give you a straight answer, a real price and a TCEQ-licensed crew that keeps you compliant.

  • State-required four-month maintenance contracts, reports filed with Kendall County
  • Septic inspections for home sales, findings in writing inside your option period
  • Repairs: compressors, pumps, controls, chlorinators & spray heads
  • Spray field repair, new aerobic installs & emergency backups

What We Do

From the four-month maintenance contract to a failing spray field, here is what we handle for Kendall County homeowners.

Aerobic System Services

We are a full-service aerobic septic company for Boerne and Kendall County, from the acreage subdivisions off I-10 and Highway 46 to the Guadalupe River places around Comfort and Waring and the ranchettes up toward Kendalia and Sisterdale. Out here the limestone and clay do not percolate the way a conventional drain field needs, so nearly every home outside a sewer district runs on an aerobic treatment unit, an ATU that aerates and disinfects wastewater before spraying it over a designated area. If it has to do with an aerobic system, we handle it: the maintenance contract Texas requires with an inspection every four months, repairs to compressors, pumps, controls, chlorinators and spray heads, inspections for a home sale, spray field and drain field repair, and new systems designed and permitted for your lot. Most of the people who call us are newcomers to the Hill Country or buyers under contract on a Kendall County property with no idea who services the system in the yard. Tell us roughly where the property is and what is going on and you get a straight answer and a real price.

Septic Maintenance Contracts

If you own an aerobic system in Texas, a maintenance contract is not a sales pitch. It is the law. The state requires every aerobic treatment unit to be under contract with a licensed maintenance provider, with an inspection at least every four months (three times a year) for the life of the system, and Kendall County can ask for proof. We provide maintenance contracts for aerobic systems across Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch, Comfort and the rest of the county. On each visit we check and service the air compressor, test the dosing pump, floats and alarm, inspect and refill the chlorinator, evaluate the effluent, clean and adjust the spray heads and file the required report. A lot of our contracts start the same way: a family moves into a Kendall County home, the previous owner’s contract lapsed at closing, and a letter from the county shows up. We pick it up from there. Beyond compliance, the real value is that we catch the small failures, a tired compressor, a sticking float, an empty chlorinator, on a routine visit before they become a soggy yard, a backup or a five-figure spray field rebuild.

Septic Inspections

A septic inspection tells you the true condition of a system before it becomes your problem, which is exactly why it matters when a Kendall County home changes hands. We inspect aerobic systems across Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch, Comfort, Cordillera Ranch and the rest of the county for home buyers, sellers, agents and owners who just want to know where they stand. We open the trash, aeration and pump tanks, verify the air compressor and dosing pump are working, test the floats and alarm, check the chlorinator and evaluate the effluent, run the spray cycle to confirm the heads cover the field, and walk the spray area for ponding or surfacing. We also confirm whether the system has an active maintenance contract on file with the county, a detail that trips up a lot of Hill Country sales. Most of our inspection calls come from out-of-town buyers under contract with an option period running, so we move fast and put the findings in writing you can hand to your agent or lender.

Septic System Repair

An aerobic system has a lot of moving parts, and any of them can fail. There is the air compressor that keeps the treatment bacteria alive, the dosing pump that sprays the field, the control panel and float switches, the chlorinator that disinfects, the spray heads and the alarm that is supposed to warn you. When one of these quits, the system stops treating waste properly, and on a Hill Country lot that quickly becomes soggy ground, odors or a backup. We diagnose and repair aerobic septic systems across Kendall County, from Boerne and Fair Oaks Ranch out to Comfort, Kendalia and Center Point. We find the actual problem rather than guessing, replace worn-out compressors and diffusers, repair or replace dosing pumps and floats, rebuild control panels and alarms, swap sun-rotted spray heads and get the chlorinator dosing correctly again. Because Texas requires these systems to be maintained on a contract, many repairs are things we catch on a four-month visit before they ever become an emergency.

Spray Field and Drain Field Repair

On an aerobic system the spray field, or the drip distribution field, is where treated and disinfected effluent is dispersed back into your yard, and over the years it can clog, pond or simply wear out. You see it above ground: standing water in the spray zone, a sewage smell outside, lush green stripes, spray heads that no longer throw a clean pattern, or alarms tripping because the pump tank cannot empty. We diagnose and repair spray fields and drain fields across Kendall County. A lot of "field" trouble on the limestone and clay around Boerne is really a clogged drip line, a failed dosing pump, sun-rotted spray heads or a treatment problem upstream pushing solids into the field, so we find the real cause first. Where the field itself has failed, we redesign and rebuild it to the available soil and setbacks, pull the Kendall County permit and get your system dispersing cleanly again. On the older conventional systems still running in Fair Oaks Ranch and around Comfort, we repair drain field lines the same way, cause first, then the fix that actually holds.

Aerobic Septic Installation

A huge share of new construction in Kendall County is on acreage with no sewer line anywhere near it, and on Hill Country ground that means an aerobic system is the only viable answer. We design, permit and install complete aerobic treatment units (ATUs) across the county, from the subdivisions filling in along I-10 and Highway 46 outside Boerne to custom homes on raw land toward Kendalia, Sisterdale and Comfort, and the large lots in Cordillera Ranch and Tapatio Springs. A proper install starts with a site evaluation and soil analysis, then a system sized to the home and approved by Kendall County, set with the trash tank, aeration chamber and pump tank, the compressor and electrical controls, the chlorination, and the spray distribution laid out to cover the required area without hitting the house, the well or the property line. We are licensed installers who do it by the book: the right design, the right permit, an inspection that passes the first time, and a system that will run clean for decades if it is maintained.

Emergency

Emergency Septic Service

A septic backup is not a "next week" problem. It is sewage coming into your home or surfacing in your yard, and it gets worse and more expensive the longer it sits. If your toilets and drains have stopped working, sewage is backing up into tubs or floor drains, you smell it inside, there is effluent surfacing in the spray field, or your aerobic alarm is going off and will not reset, that is an emergency and we treat it like one. We provide fast emergency aerobic septic service across Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch, Comfort and the rest of Kendall County. We come out, find why the system stopped, a failed air compressor, a dead dosing pump, a stuck float, a clogged spray field or a tank full of solids, relieve the backup and get you running again. On an aerobic system the alarm often goes off before a full backup, so a fast response can save you the mess entirely. The first priority is stopping the problem and getting your household functional; then we tell you straight what failed and what it takes to keep it from happening again.

Backing Up, Ponding, or an Alarm Going Off? Do Not Wait.

An aerobic system problem usually gets worse, and more expensive, the longer it is left alone. A few signs mean you should cut back on water and call today.

Backups mean stop using water

Sewage backing up into tubs, drains, or toilets means the system has nowhere to put the water. Every flush and load of laundry makes it worse. We relieve the backup, find the cause, often a failed compressor or dosing pump, and get your house draining again.

A ponding spray field is a warning

Standing water, soggy ground, or a sewage odor in the spray area means the system is not dispersing treated effluent the way it should. Often it is a fixable upstream problem, a tired compressor or clogged heads, not a dead field, but it needs a look before it worsens.

An aerobic alarm cannot be ignored

That red light and buzzer usually means the air compressor failed, the dosing pump is not keeping up, or a float is stuck. Do not just unplug it. Cut back on water and call before it turns into a backup. Caught early, the alarm can save you the mess entirely.

Questions We Hear a Lot

Why does my Kendall County property need an aerobic system?
The Hill Country around Boerne sits on shallow, rocky limestone and tight clay that do not absorb wastewater fast enough for a conventional drain field. An aerobic treatment unit (ATU) aerates and disinfects the effluent so it can be sprayed over a smaller area, which is what these soils can handle. For most lots outside the Boerne sewer system, in Fair Oaks Ranch, Cordillera Ranch, Comfort and along Highway 46, an aerobic system is the only design the county will permit.
Is a maintenance contract really required by law in Texas?
Yes. Texas requires every aerobic system to be under a maintenance contract with a licensed provider, with an inspection at least every four months for the life of the system, and Kendall County can ask for proof. We hold the contract, run the inspections on schedule and file the reports so you stay compliant.
I am buying a home near Boerne. Should the septic be inspected before I close?
Yes. A standard home inspection barely touches an aerobic system, and a compressor, pump or spray field can be costly to replace. We open the tanks, test every component, run the spray cycle, confirm the maintenance-contract status with the county and put the findings in writing inside your option period.
What septic work do you do?
Maintenance contracts with the state-required four-month inspections, repairs to compressors, dosing pumps, control panels, chlorinators and spray heads, inspections for home sales, spray field and drain field repair, new aerobic system design and installation, and emergency backups. One TCEQ-licensed crew covers the whole system across Kendall County.
My aerobic alarm is going off. Can you come the same day?
Often, yes, especially for urgent problems like a backup or an alarm that will not reset, which usually means a failed air compressor, a dead dosing pump or a stuck float. Cut back on water use, do not just unplug the buzzer, and call. Same-day service is often available; ask when you call.
What areas do you cover?
Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch, Comfort, Bergheim, Sisterdale, Waring, Welfare, Kendalia, Cordillera Ranch, Tapatio Springs and Center Point, and the acreage in between across Kendall County. If you are not sure we reach you, call and ask; we likely do.
