Septic Emergency? Call Now: 281-360-9168
Septic emergencies don't wait for business hours. If you're experiencing a backup, overflow, sewage odor, or system alarm, call us immediately. We offer after-hours and weekend emergency response across Harris, Montgomery, and Liberty Counties.
What To Do While You Wait
- Stop using water immediately — don't flush toilets, run sinks, or use appliances
- Keep people and pets away from any standing sewage or wet areas in your yard
- Do not open the septic tank — septic tanks contain dangerous gases
- Check your alarm panel — if your aerobic system has an alarm, note any warning lights
- Check your breaker — a tripped circuit breaker can cause pump failure
Common Septic Emergencies
- Sewage backup into the home — often caused by pump failure, clogged lines, or full tank
- Standing water over the drainfield — may indicate drainfield failure or hydraulic overload
- Sewage odor inside or outside — can indicate system malfunction, vent issues, or tank problems
- Alarm sounding on aerobic system — may indicate aerator failure, high water level, or electrical issue
- System overflow after heavy rain — common in flood-prone areas of Harris County
