Septic System Repair across Northeast Texas

Northeast Texas Disposal repairs septic systems across Hopkins County and the surrounding area: blocked and collapsed lines, failed baffles, broken lids and risers, pump and float faults, and aerobic components that have stopped doing their job. We have been doing this out of Pickton since 1993.

A system that has stopped working is not automatically a system that needs replacing. The faults we fix most often are:

  • Blocked or collapsed lines between the house and the tank, or between the tank and the field
  • Failed baffles. A baffle that has broken lets solids straight through to the drain field. Cheap to replace, expensive to ignore.
  • Damaged lids and risers, including lids that have been driven over
  • Pump and float faults on pumped and aerobic systems
  • Aerobic components: air pumps, chlorinators, blocked spray heads
  • Tank cracks and root intrusion

Diagnosis comes first

We open the tank and look before we tell you what it needs. That sounds obvious, but the reason it matters is that the symptoms of a full tank, a blocked line and a failed drain field are close to identical from inside the house.

Getting that wrong is how people end up paying for a new system when they needed a pump-out and a baffle. Every septic system is different, so nothing gets priced over the phone that we have not seen.

When repair is not the answer

We will tell you when it is not worth it. If the drain field has been taking solids for years, the soil pores are clogged and no repair upstream brings it back. At that point you are looking at a new field or a full replacement, and we would rather say so than sell you a repair that buys a few months.

Common questions

How do I know if my septic needs repair or replacement?

It depends on where the fault is. Problems between the house and the tank, or in the tank itself, are almost always repairable. A drain field that has been receiving solids for years usually is not, because the soil itself is clogged. We open the system and look before saying which one you have.

Can you repair an aerobic system?

Yes. Air pumps, chlorinators, floats and spray heads are all serviceable parts. Aerobic units fail at the chlorinator more often than anywhere else, and that is one of the cheapest parts on the whole system.

Do you handle emergency repairs?

Yes. Someone answers the phone any hour, any day. If sewage is backing up into the house, call rather than wait.

Need this looked at?

Call and describe what the system is doing. We come out, open it up and tell you what it needs before any work starts.
