The combination means that when a plumbing issue turns out to involve the septic system, or vice versa, customers don't have to call a second company to finish the job.

Properties in areas like the Rail Yard district, the north side of Santa Fe, and outlying county roads are all within their service area. Their multi-trade setup makes them a practical option for both in-city and rural properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a plumbing problem affect my septic system?
Yes, plumbing issues like leaking fixtures or running toilets can send excess water into your septic tank, overloading it faster than normal. A company that handles both systems can identify when a plumbing fix is needed to protect the septic system from premature failure.
Do I need a water softener if I'm on a septic system in Santa Fe?
Santa Fe has notoriously hard water, and many homeowners want water softeners, but the excess salt and water they discharge can disrupt the bacterial balance in your septic tank. Talk to your provider about salt-free alternatives or systems designed to be more septic-friendly.
How do I know if my water heater or my septic system is causing a problem?
Symptoms like discolored water or low pressure usually point to plumbing or water heater issues, while slow drains throughout the house and outdoor odors often indicate a septic problem. A provider who handles both can pinpoint the source quickly without the guesswork.
What's the benefit of hiring one company for plumbing and septic?
You avoid the coordination headache of scheduling two separate contractors and waiting for each to diagnose their piece of the problem. It also means the technician has a complete picture of your home's water and waste systems, which leads to more accurate diagnoses.
How long does a typical water heater installation take?
Most standard tank water heater replacements take two to four hours, while tankless unit installations may take longer depending on whether new venting or gas line work is required. Your provider can give you a more specific estimate after seeing the existing setup.
Is it normal to smell sewage near my outdoor faucets or irrigation system?
Not usually. A sewage smell near outdoor fixtures could indicate a nearby septic issue, a venting problem, or even a broken line between the house and the tank. It's worth having someone assess it promptly, since outdoor sewage odors often signal a system under stress.
