Septic Inspections in Bergheim, TX

Buying or selling a home in Boerne or Kendall County? We inspect the aerobic system end to end, confirm the contract status with the county and give you a clear written picture.

Inspections in Bergheim

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 Inspections in Bergheim, TX

Septic service in Bergheim

Bergheim is the crossroads on Highway 46 east of Boerne where FM 3351 heads north toward Kendalia, a general store, a post office and acreage subdivisions and ranchettes spreading out in every direction between Boerne and the Comal County line. There is no sewer anywhere near Bergheim, and because this is some of the busiest acreage construction in Kendall County, almost every home here is on an aerobic system built in the last fifteen years. We hold maintenance contracts, repair compressors, pumps and spray heads, inspect systems for home sales and install new units across the Bergheim area. The pattern here is new builds coming off the installer’s initial two-year contract and owners who moved out from San Antonio for the land and have never dealt with a septic system. We work right up to the Comal County line.

Common Septic Problems in Bergheim

The aerobic system problems we see most around here, and how we handle them.

New acreage builds coming off the initial contract

Most Bergheim homes are recent builds whose aerobic systems went in with a two-year initial maintenance period. When that runs out, the owner has to put the system under a new contract or fall out of compliance with Kendall County. We take over the contract and keep the four-month inspections and reports going without a gap.

Long spray runs on big lots

Acreage lots give plenty of room for a spray field, but long distribution runs and heads scattered across a yard are easy to neglect. Heads sun-rot and clog, livestock and mowers knock them over, and one bad head throws the whole pattern off. We check and adjust every head on each maintenance visit.

Wildlife, livestock and the spray zone

Deer, cattle and horses on Bergheim acreage trample spray heads and compact the spray zone, and a shed or a driveway built over the field later is a common mistake on a working ranchette. We mark the field, advise on fencing and keep the distribution working.

Inspections in Bergheim: FAQs

Do you serve the acreage around Bergheim?
Yes. We cover Bergheim and the acreage along Highway 46, FM 3351 toward Kendalia and Edge Falls Road, right up to the Comal County line. Tell us roughly where the property is and we will come prepared for the access.
The builder’s maintenance on my new Bergheim home is about to end. What do I do?
Call us before it ends and we will pick up the contract with no gap. We inspect the system on the first visit, service the compressor, chlorinator and spray heads, and file with Kendall County so the record shows a licensed provider the whole way through.
Can you install an aerobic system on raw land I am building on near Bergheim?
Yes. We do the site evaluation and soil analysis, size the system to the home, lay out the spray field to the setbacks, pull the Kendall County permit and install it to TCEQ standards. We also start the required maintenance contract so the system is compliant from the day it is turned on.
Do I need a septic inspection when buying a Kendall County home?
If the home is on an aerobic system, and most homes outside the Boerne sewer system are, yes. A standard home inspection does not cover the aerobic system in any depth, and components from the compressor to the spray field can be costly to replace. A dedicated aerobic inspection tells you the real condition, and whether the required maintenance contract is current, before you own it.
What is different about inspecting an aerobic system versus a conventional one?
There is far more to check. Beyond the tanks, an aerobic inspection has to verify the air compressor, the dosing pump, the floats and alarm, the chlorination, the effluent quality and the spray distribution across the field, plus confirm the system is under the legally required maintenance contract. We test the whole treatment process, not just lift a lid, so you get a true picture.
How fast can you inspect during an option period?
Call as soon as you are under contract. Most aerobic inspections take an hour or two on site depending on access and the spray cycle, and we get the written summary to you quickly so you can negotiate or walk before the option period ends. You get the system type and age, the condition of the compressor, pump, floats, chlorinator and tanks, how the effluent and spray field looked, the contract status and any repairs it needs.
