Services & Process

Autry's handles standard septic pumping and system service alongside hydro-jetting, which uses high-pressure water to clear blockages in pipes and drain lines that conventional snaking can't reach. Backhoe capability means they can perform excavation work for drain field repairs, tank access, and system installations without subcontracting the digging. That makes them a practical choice when a job requires opening the ground, whether it's accessing a buried tank or repairing a collapsed line. Emergency response is also common for a provider operating in a busy suburban-rural corridor like southern Mecklenburg County.

Service Area

Autry's Backhoe & Septic Service is based in Pineville and serves southern Mecklenburg County and the communities along the NC-SC border. Areas like Ballantyne, Waxhaw, Mint Hill, and Matthews are all within range. Their location near the state line also makes them accessible for customers just across the border in York County, South Carolina.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is hydro-jetting and how is it different from snaking a drain?
Hydro-jetting uses a high-pressure water stream, often at 3,000 to 4,000 PSI, to scour the inside walls of a pipe and push debris through. Snaking punctures a blockage or pulls debris out mechanically but leaves buildup on the pipe walls intact. For pipes with grease accumulation, root intrusion, or heavy sludge, jetting is significantly more thorough.
Does my Pineville property even need a septic system, or is sewer available?
Parts of Pineville and southern Mecklenburg County are on public sewer, but properties farther from the main lines or in older rural sections may still rely on private septic. If you're unsure, your property deed, a call to Mecklenburg County utilities, or a check with your home inspector can confirm which system you have. Don't assume either way.
Can hydro-jetting damage older pipes?
It can, if older clay or concrete pipes are already fragile or cracked. A professional should run a camera inspection before jetting an older system to confirm the pipes can handle the pressure. On pipes that are in decent structural shape, hydro-jetting is safe and effective.
My septic alarm is going off. What should I do?
A septic alarm typically means the water level in the tank or pump chamber is higher than it should be, which can signal a pump failure, electrical issue, or blockage. Reduce water use immediately and call a septic service provider as soon as possible. Ignoring an active alarm risks a sewage backup into your home or surfacing in your yard.
How does backhoe service connect to septic repair?
Many septic repairs and all new installations require excavation to access the tank, repair or replace drain field lines, or install new components. A company with its own backhoe can perform this work directly rather than waiting for a separate excavation crew. That usually means faster scheduling and a more coordinated repair process overall.
How do I evaluate a septic company before hiring them?
Look at their review history and read the actual comments, not just the star count. Ask whether they're licensed with the North Carolina On-Site Wastewater Section and how long they've been operating locally. Getting a clear quote before work begins and asking what the job includes helps prevent misunderstandings once the technician is on your property.
