Septic Maintenance Contracts in Kendalia, TX

Texas requires aerobic systems to be on a maintenance contract with inspections every four months. We hold the contract, do the visits and file the reports with Kendall County.

Maintenance in Kendalia

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 Maintenance Contracts in Kendalia, TX

Septic service in Kendalia

Kendalia is the farthest-flung community in Kendall County, up FM 3351 and FM 473 in the northeast corner near the Blanco County line, a dance hall, a handful of old buildings and a lot of ranch land giving way to acreage subdivisions along the back roads toward the Guadalupe River. There is no sewer and no water system to speak of; homes here are on wells and septic, and anything built in the last couple of decades is on an aerobic unit. We hold maintenance contracts, repair compressors and pumps, inspect systems for sales and install new units across the Kendalia area. Because it is a long drive from anywhere, Kendalia systems are often the most neglected in the county: compressors dead for a season, chlorinators empty, contracts that quietly lapsed. We put Kendalia on a route and keep the four-month visits, and we carry parts so a repair gets done on the first trip. We work up to the Blanco County line.

Common Septic Problems in Kendalia

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

The most neglected systems in the county

Distance keeps maintenance providers away from Kendalia, so units go unserviced and problems compound: a dead compressor, then poor effluent, then a clogged spray field. A real four-month schedule with a provider who actually shows up is the fix, and it is what Texas requires anyway.

Wells and septic on the same lot

Kendalia homes draw from private wells, so the separation between the well and the septic system is a health matter, not just a rule. New installs and spray field rebuilds are laid out to the required setbacks from the well, and a system that stops treating properly is a risk to your own water.

Steep, rocky lots toward the river

Acreage toward the Guadalupe is steep and shallow over limestone, leaving little room and little soil for a spray field. Systems here have to be designed carefully to the ground and the slope, and a field with no margin ponds quickly if the unit is not treating or storm runoff piles on.

Maintenance in Kendalia: FAQs

Do you come out to Kendalia for regular maintenance?
Yes. Kendalia is on our route. We cover the community itself, FM 3351, FM 473 toward Sisterdale, Edge Falls Road and the acreage toward the river, right up to the Blanco County line. We bring the common aerobic parts so a visit is usually finished in one trip.
My aerobic system near Kendalia has not been serviced in years. Where do I start?
Start with an inspection and a maintenance contract. We open the tanks, test the compressor, pump, floats, chlorinator and alarm, check the spray field and tell you the true condition. Then we put you on the four-month schedule and file with Kendall County so you are compliant again.
Can you install a new system on land I bought near Kendalia?
Yes. We do the site evaluation and soil analysis, lay out the tanks and spray field to the setbacks from your well, the house and the property line, pull the Kendall County permit and install the system to TCEQ standards. The required maintenance contract starts the day it is turned on.
Do I really have to have a maintenance contract on my aerobic system?
Yes. Texas law 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. It is not optional, and Kendall County can request proof of an active contract. We hold the contract, run the inspections and file the reports so you stay compliant.
What happens if I let my maintenance contract lapse?
A lapsed contract means your system is out of compliance. You can receive notices from the county, and an unmaintained system is far more likely to fail: a dead compressor or an empty chlorinator quickly leads to odors, poor treatment and a clogged spray field. A lapse also complicates a home sale, since buyers and lenders look for an active contract. It is easy and inexpensive to keep it current.
I bought a house in Kendall County and the old contract ended at closing. What now?
Call us and we will set up a new contract in your name, inspect the system on the first visit so you have a baseline, and file with the county so the record shows an active provider. This is one of the most common calls we get in Boerne and Fair Oaks Ranch, and the sooner it is done after closing the less chance of a notice.
How often will you actually come out?
At least three times a year, once every four months, which is the minimum the state requires. On each visit we service the compressor, test the pump, floats and alarm, refill and check the chlorinator, evaluate the effluent, clean the spray heads and file the report. If something needs attention between visits, you call and we come out.
