About Cowboy Pumping

Cowboy Pumping is a San Antonio-based provider that brings a broader skill set to the table than most septic-only companies. In addition to septic services, they offer hydro-jetting and plumbing, which means one crew can often handle a wider range of issues in a single visit. San Antonio's mix of older established neighborhoods and newer suburban developments on the city's outskirts creates varied septic and plumbing demands. They currently hold a 5.0 rating from their early reviews, pointing to solid customer satisfaction from the start.

Services & Process

Cowboy Pumping covers septic tank pumping, routine maintenance, and system inspections alongside their plumbing and hydro-jetting capabilities. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to clear blockages in sewer lines and drain pipes that traditional snaking can't fully resolve, making it especially useful for stubborn grease or root intrusion. Their plumbing services mean they can address issues from the house drain all the way to the septic tank in one coordinated visit. This combination is particularly valuable for commercial customers dealing with grease traps or properties with complex drain systems.

Service Area

Cowboy Pumping operates out of San Antonio and serves properties across the greater San Antonio metro area, including Bexar County and nearby communities. Whether you're in the urban core near downtown or out toward the Loop 1604 corridor, they cover a wide geographic range. Customers in surrounding areas like Leon Valley, Converse, and Schertz may also be within their service reach.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is hydro-jetting and when do I need it?
Hydro-jetting uses a high-pressure water stream to scour the inside walls of drain pipes, clearing grease buildup, debris, and even tree roots that cause repeated blockages. It's the right choice when standard drain snaking hasn't resolved a recurring clog or when a camera inspection shows significant buildup inside the line.
Can a plumber and septic technician be the same person?
In Texas, septic work and plumbing work technically fall under different licensing categories, but companies can hold both types of licenses and train staff accordingly. Cowboy Pumping's combined service offering means you're working with a team that understands how your interior plumbing and your septic system interact.
How do I know if my slow drain is a plumbing problem or a septic problem?
If only one fixture is draining slowly, it's usually a localized plumbing clog. If multiple drains throughout the house are sluggish at the same time, or if you hear gurgling from toilets when running water elsewhere, the issue is more likely in the main line or the septic tank itself.
Does San Antonio have city sewer in all neighborhoods?
No. While much of central San Antonio is connected to San Antonio Water System (SAWS) municipal sewer, many properties on the city's edges, in older rural pockets, and in unincorporated Bexar County still rely on private septic systems. A quick check with SAWS or your county records can confirm which system your property uses.
How often should grease traps be cleaned for a commercial property?
Most commercial kitchens in San Antonio need grease trap cleaning every one to three months, depending on the volume of cooking and local health code requirements. Letting a grease trap go too long between cleanings leads to backups, odors, and potential code violations that can disrupt business operations.
Will hydro-jetting damage older pipes?
In most cases, hydro-jetting is safe for well-maintained pipes, but a technician should inspect the line first, especially if it's older cast iron or clay tile that may have cracks or weak joints. A reputable provider will run a camera inspection before jetting if there's any concern about pipe condition.
