24/7 Emergency Septic Service in Fort Worth, Tarrant County
Fort Worth emergency work covers both residential septic and commercial lift stations, and the second of those escalates faster than almost anything else we deal with.
A commercial lift station that stops has no gravity fallback. Wastewater arrives at the wet well and has nowhere to go, so the level rises until it backs up into the building. For a restaurant or an apartment block that becomes a closure, which is why we treat these as genuinely urgent at any hour.
Residential emergencies in Fort Worth follow the same pattern as elsewhere: backups indoors and surfacing effluent are urgent, alarm-only situations usually are not.

When a Lift Station Fails
If a high-level alarm sounds at a commercial site, the most useful immediate step is reducing what is going into the system. In a restaurant that means stopping dishwashing and cleaning down; in an apartment building it is harder, but limiting non-essential use buys time.
Do not keep resetting a tripping breaker on a pump. A pump that repeatedly trips is drawing current it should not be, and forcing it back on can destroy the motor and turn a service call into a replacement. Call us and leave it off.

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
Our restaurant's lift station alarm is going off. How urgent is this?
Treat it as urgent. A lift station has no gravity fallback, so once the wet well fills, wastewater backs up into the building. Reduce water use immediately and call us.
The lift station pump keeps tripping the breaker. Can I keep resetting it?
No. Repeated tripping means the pump is drawing excessive current, and forcing it back on can burn out the motor. Leave it off and call us, or you may turn a repair into a replacement.
Do you handle emergency commercial work at weekends?
Yes, 24 hours a day including weekends and holidays. Commercial systems tend to fail when they are busiest, which is rarely convenient.
Do you keep replacement lift station pumps in stock?
We carry common sizes and fittings, which covers a good share of failures on the first visit. Larger or unusual commercial pumps sometimes have to be sourced, and we will tell you straight away if that is the case so you can plan around it.
