Family owned since 1989, Kinards answers the phone 24/7, offers same day service when you call before 1 PM, and sends the owner to your property to walk you through what’s wrong and how to fix it—no nonsense, neighbors helping neighbors.
Signs You Need Septic Repair
A septic system usually gives you some warning before it quits. If you see or smell any of these, it’s time to call:
- Slow or gurgling drains throughout the house
- Sewage backing up in tubs, showers, or toilets
- Foul odors inside or around the tank and drain field
- Wet, soggy, or unusually lush spots in the yard near the system
- Alarm light or buzzer going off on your aerobic system
These symptoms can indicate anything from a simple blockage to a failing drain field or damaged tank, and delaying repair usually makes the fix more expensive.
What We Repair
Kinards handles all common septic repairs on residential systems—emergency and scheduled.
We repair:
- Backups and blockages between the house and tank
- Broken, crushed, or offset pipes in the yard
- Pump, float, and control box problems
- Alarm and electrical issues on aerobic systems
- Damaged lids, risers, and access points
- Drain field issues such as surfacing effluent and soggy areas
If you’re not sure exactly what’s wrong, that’s okay—describe what you’re seeing or smelling when you call or text, and we’ll troubleshoot from there.
Emergency vs. Scheduled Septic Repair
Some problems just can’t wait. Kinards treats anything involving sewage in the home, active backing up, or strong odors in living areas as an emergency.
- Emergency repair
- Backups into tubs, showers, or toilets
- Strong sewage smells inside the home
- Alarm sounding and tank visibly near overflow
- Scheduled repair
- Slow drains that aren’t yet backing up
- Occasional smells outside near the tank
- Suspected leaks, old lids, or minor issues caught early
In both cases, you get the same process: real person answers, owner on site, clear options, and upfront expectations before any work begins.
Our Repair Process
- You text or call
- Send your name, address, and a short description of the problem to 325‑248‑5565, or call and talk to a real person.
- We listen and prioritize
- We ask a few quick questions, decide whether it’s emergency or scheduled, and give you a time window—same day when you call before 1 PM whenever possible.
- Owner on site diagnosis
- The owner inspects your system, explains what’s going on in plain language, and lays out your options along with the pros and cons of each.
- We make the repair
- Once you approve, we repair lines, pumps, controls, or drain field components as needed and test everything before we leave.
- We clean up and advise
- We leave the site as tidy as the job allows and explain any maintenance or pumping schedule that will help prevent the same issue from returning.
