Septic Tank Maintenance Services in Central Texas
A healthy septic system doesn’t just happen — it takes consistent care. At KWM Septic, we offer professional septic maintenance services to help homeowners and property managers avoid costly repairs, health hazards, and system failure.
Serving Brazos County and the surrounding region, we provide scheduled inspections, maintenance plans, and support to extend the life of your system and protect your property.
Why Septic Maintenance Matters
Septic systems are built to be durable, but they aren't set-and-forget. Over time, waste builds up, components wear out, and environmental conditions shift. Without regular care, small issues can escalate into full-blown system failures.
Benefits of Regular Septic Maintenance:
- Prevents backups and overflows
- Extends system lifespan
- Protects groundwater and environment
- Helps avoid costly emergency repairs
- Ensures compliance with county health regulations
Routine service keeps your system working — and your property protected.
Our Septic Maintenance Services
We customize maintenance plans based on system size, household use, and tank type. Services include:
- Routine Inspections – Visual checks, flow tests, and system performance evaluation
- Sludge & Scum Level Monitoring – Determines when pumping is needed
- Septic Pumping Coordination – Scheduled pumping through trusted partners
- Filter Cleaning – Removes buildup to prevent clogs
- System Component Checks – Covers lids, risers, baffles, pumps, and more
- Drain Field Observation – Spot early signs of saturation or failure
We’ll keep records of all maintenance and recommend the right pumping interval for your home.
Recommended Pumping Schedule
For most homes in Texas:
- 2-person household: Every 4–5 years
- 4-person household: Every 3 years
- 6+ person household: Every 1–2 years
Other factors, such as a garbage disposal, heavy water usage, or older systems, may require more frequent service. We’ll help you get on the right schedule.
