Why Duckies

The septic guy who finds the problem, not just the symptom

Septic backups can start in the line between the building and the tank. We inspect the problem and explain the repair options before work begins.

Before and after

This is what your tank should look like after the pump

Drag the handle. Left is a tank that had not been vacuumed in years. Right is the same tank when we left. Recommended every 3-4 years to avoid backups.

What happens when you call

Four steps, no surprises

01

You call, a person answers

Tell us what the drains are doing and where the tank is, if you know. If you do not know, that is fine, we locate tanks every week.

02

We give you a time and a price

We discuss the visit price and scheduling before dispatch. Emergency arrival depends on your location and availability, including nights and weekends.

03

We pump, inspect and show you

The tank gets vacuumed to the floor. We check the baffles, the inlet and outlet, and the lids. Ask about before-and-after photos for your service visit.

04

You get a plain recommendation

Most of the time it is “see you in 3 to 4 years”. If something needs fixing, we tell you what, why, and what it costs, and you decide.

Questions

Straight answers about septic in Lubbock

Every 3 to 4 years for most homes, which is what it says on the side of our truck. A big family, a garbage disposal, or an older system can push that to every 2 years. If you cannot remember the last time, it is time.

Slow drains all over the house, gurgling toilets, a sewage smell outside, or wet spots over the tank or drain field. One slow sink is usually a clog in that one drain. Every drain slow at once is the tank.

Emergency service is available outside regular hours, including nights and weekends. Call to discuss the situation and confirm arrival based on your location and availability. Routine pump-outs are scheduled during the day.

Yes. We locate buried tanks with a probe and, when needed, electronic equipment, without tearing up the yard. New homeowners in Lubbock call us for exactly this.

Yes. Texas OSSF Installer License 0S0040509 and TCEQ 26748. We handle the soil test, the permit and the county inspection on new systems and replacements.
