Septic Services for Kennedale
Kennedale is a southeast Tarrant County city where city sewer serves the majority of properties. The septic systems that remain tend to belong to older houses in areas that were developed before the sewer network reached them, or on the edges of the city. Because septic is the exception here rather than the rule, the questions we field in Kennedale are frequently about whether a property is on septic at all, and what happens if it connects to the main.
Working Out What Your Property Is Actually On
In a mostly sewered city this is a genuine question, particularly for recent buyers. The quickest check is your utility bill: a sewer charge from the city means you are connected. Water only, with no sewer line item, points strongly to septic.
Physically, look for one or two access lids in the yard, a control panel or small enclosure on an exterior wall, or sprinkler heads that operate without your irrigation controller. If none of that is conclusive, we can establish it definitively on a visit.
Connecting to the Main and Retiring the Old Tank
Where a sewer main is available in the street, connecting is worth considering, particularly if the existing system is nearing the end of its life. Whether a connection is possible and what it costs are questions for the City of Kennedale, since both depend on the infrastructure in your street.
What frequently gets overlooked is the old tank. An abandoned septic tank cannot simply be left as it is. It needs to be pumped out and either removed or properly filled, because an empty buried tank is a genuine collapse hazard. That is work we carry out, and it is the part people forget to budget for.

Frequently Asked Questions About Septic Services in Kennedale
How do I find out if my Kennedale home is on septic?
Check whether your city bill includes a sewer charge. If not, you are most likely on septic. Look for access lids in the yard, a control panel on an exterior wall, or sprinklers running without your irrigation controller. We can confirm it on a visit.
How long does it take you to reach Kennedale?
About twenty-five minutes from our Burleson yard.
Can I connect to city sewer instead?
Where a main is available in your street, often yes. Availability and connection costs are questions for the City of Kennedale. It is worth investigating if your system is nearing the end of its life.
What happens to the old tank if I connect to the main?
It has to be properly retired: pumped out and then either removed or filled. An empty buried tank is a collapse hazard and cannot simply be abandoned in place. We do this work, and it is the part most people forget to budget for.
Who issues septic permits in Kennedale?
Tarrant County Public Health handles on-site sewage facility permitting for the area.
My house is old and still on septic. Is that a problem?
Not in itself. A well-maintained older system can work perfectly well. What matters is its condition and whether it has been pumped on a sensible schedule, which we can assess.
