Residential Septic Maintenance in Cleburne, Johnson County
Maintenance in Cleburne most often begins when a builder's contract runs out on a west-side property and the homeowner discovers they are required to have one.
Texas requires an aerobic treatment system serving a home to be covered by a maintenance contract with a licensed provider. New installations usually come with an initial contract arranged by the installer. When it lapses, the obligation does not, and neither does the system's need for inspection.
We take over lapsed contracts regularly. There is no penalty for coming to us late, and it does not matter who installed the system. What matters is getting the inspection schedule running again before an unnoticed fault does damage.

The Chlorinator Nobody Refills
The most common thing we find on a first Cleburne maintenance visit is an empty chlorinator. Aerobic systems disinfect treated effluent with chlorine tablets before it is sprayed, and the tablets are consumed. Without them the system sprays undisinfected effluent across the yard.
The system gives no obvious sign. Nothing alarms, nothing backs up, and the sprinklers run exactly as before. Refilling is cheap and quick. Use pool chlorine as a substitute and you can damage the system, so it is worth using the correct tablets.

Great company. Got here quickly on July 4th weekend which was great. Fair price and excellent service. Explained things pumped tanks replaced aerator pump and found a fitting on aerator loose and are fixing that at no cost. They wanted to make sure everything is in working order. Definitely recommend them!
I use Burleson Septic for two apartment complexes I manage in Granbury Texas. Office staff is always professional, prompt and knowledgeable! The Service technicians are always on site when they say they will be and work hard to get the job done right the 1st time. We look forward to our continued working relationship!
These people stepped up when I was out of hope and exhausted. True Christians that cared, showed mercy, compassion, and went to work to do a job well done by their crew members. A female owned business. I can never thank them enough for everything they did for me. I love y'all & thank you!
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I legally need a maintenance contract in Texas?
For an aerobic treatment system serving a home, yes. State rules require a contract with a licensed maintenance provider and inspections at set intervals. Conventional gravity systems do not carry the same requirement.
Can you take over the contract if someone else installed my system?
Yes, that is a routine part of our work. It makes no difference who installed it. We inspect it, record its condition and pick up the schedule.
Can I put pool chlorine in my aerobic system?
No. Pool chlorine is a different formulation and can damage the system and its components. Use tablets specified for wastewater treatment, which we can supply.
How much notice will I get before a scheduled inspection?
We contact you ahead of each visit to arrange a time rather than simply turning up. For most Cleburne customers the system is accessible without anyone being home, but we would rather you knew we were coming.
