Our Services

 At Brookshire Septic & Pumping, we go far beyond a basic pump-out. Every service we offer is designed to protect your system, extend its lifespan, and give you complete confidence in the condition of your septic system.

• Visually inspect the tank, baffles, and components 

• Clean effluent filters to help prevent backups and extend the life of your system 

• Check for signs of wear, cracks, corrosion, or root intrusion 

• Assess the overall condition of the tank, inlet, outlet, and lid integrity
   

Septic tanks should be pumped every 3 years, more if there is high water usage or many people in the home. 

 No one wants to deal with a septic emergency—but if something goes wrong, Brookshire Septic & Pumping is ready to respond quickly. Septic problems can escalate fast, and waiting usually makes things worse. That’s why we come prepared to diagnose the issue on the spot.

We troubleshoot everything from slow drains and foul odors to pump failures, backups, and full system breakdowns. Using professional tools and high-resolution camera equipment, we inspect your tank and lines to pinpoint the exact cause—without unnecessary digging. Once we identify the problem, we provide clear, honest guidance on your repair options.

If it’s minor, we can often fix it right away. If it’s more serious, we’re fully equipped to repair or replace damaged components—or even sections of the system if needed. Our goal is simple: get your home back to normal as quickly and safely as possible.

 When installing a new septic system—or replacing a failing one—experience and proper licensing matter. In Missouri, a State Licensed Installer is required, and Brookshire Septic & Pumping has two fully licensed installers on our team. Every job meets state requirements, local health department standards, and high workmanship standards.

We install all types of systems, including conventional gravity, aerobic treatment units, advanced systems like LPP and drip, pump-assisted systems, and full tank replacements.

Whether you’re building a new home or replacing a failed system, we guide you from start to finish. We handle site evaluation, coordinate system design, complete installation, and work with inspectors to keep the process smooth.

We take the time to assess your property, soil conditions, and household needs so we can recommend the system that will perform reliably for years to come—then install it with precision and care.

 We provide professional lagoon system installation for homeowners in rural areas where traditional septic systems may not be suitable. Lagoon systems are an effective and economical wastewater treatment option when soil conditions or property size allow. Our team handles the entire process from site evaluation and excavation to final grading and inspection. We work closely with local regulations and health department requirements to ensure your lagoon is properly designed and installed. Proper slope, depth, and liner integrity are critical, and we make sure every detail is done right. 

If replacing an old or failing lagoon, we can safely decommission the existing system and construct a new one according to current standards. Because lagoon placement and soil composition matter, we carefully assess your property before beginning work. Our excavation experience allows us to shape and grade the basin correctly for long-term performance. When completed properly, a lagoon system can provide reliable wastewater treatment for many years with minimal maintenance.

 At Brookshire Septic & Pumping, we offer advanced camera inspection services to give you a clear, accurate look inside your septic system and underground piping. Our high-resolution camera equipment allows us to diagnose issues such as blockages, root intrusion, damaged lines, and system failures without unnecessary digging.

We use our camera technology to locate septic tanks, lines, and components with precision—saving you time, money, and guesswork.

In addition to septic systems, we are available for other camera inspection applications, including drain lines, utility lines, and custom projects where visual confirmation is needed.

Whether you’re troubleshooting a problem or planning routine maintenance, our camera inspections provide detailed insight you can trust. Let us help you see what’s happening underground—before it becomes a costly repair.

Advanced or alternative septic systems are designed to protect your property and the environment—but only when they are properly maintained. These systems rely on pumps, filters, aerators, alarms, and treatment components that must be checked regularly to keep everything running safely and efficiently. Skipping maintenance on an advanced system can lead to expensive repairs, system failures, foul odors, backups, or even violations with your local health department.

At Brookshire Septic & Pumping, we take the upkeep of advanced systems seriously. Our technicians follow a comprehensive, step-by-step inspection checklist that ensures every part of your system is evaluated, tested, and documented. We don’t just “take a quick look”—we thoroughly examine all mechanical and treatment components, including:

• Control panels and floats
  Pumps, lines, and aeration equipment
  Treatment chambers and filters
  Alarm systems and electrical connections
  Flow conditions and system performance
  Visual signs of leaks, overloading, or improper function
   

We also clean filters, confirm proper operation, and identify any issues before they become costly problems. If something isn’t performing as it should, we provide honest recommendations and clear guidance on the next steps.
