What people say
I can not say everything that this company as done for us with pumping service and education for septic system. Highly recommend Charlie for your next schedule pumping and jetting. Don't look further away from your home and support a local company that is willing to do honest work for your home and family's need.
Highly and I mean HIGHLY recommend Houchins Hydro & Pumping LLC for any of your septic/sewer needs. Unfortunately, our septic tank was full of diapers.(not from us and obviously not the smartest way to dispose of them) We didn't know until my dad saw standing sewage/water by the clean out. Called them on Sunday and they were here Monday to see what the issue was and back out this morning bright and early to fix the issue! Very fast, efficient and explained everything to us so we weren't left not knowing! Can't thank them enough!!
They did an amazing job! Had to do septic repair over father's day weekend that needed emergence pumping to finish the job. They came out on father's day morning and had it done in no time. Very friendly and kind. The price was very reasonable for the short notice and for coming out on a Sunday.
I had a great experience with Houchins Hydro & Pumping. We needed our septic tank pumped and Keaton completed the job quickly and efficiently. The price was reasonable, friendly service, and we did not have to wait a long time to have the job completed. I highly recommend Houchins Hydro & Pumping.
These guys are awesome made the call to have my septic tank pumped, they were extremely friendly and genially cared about the experience. They were very quick to respond and very flexible when it cake to my work schedule, and the price is extremely fair and competitive, I would highly recommend them for all their services!!!
Installations
Putting a system in, not just emptying one.
Houchins are now scheduling septic system installations. In their words: if you are building a new home, replacing an outdated system, or planning ahead, they would love to help.
The form below is short on purpose. An install is a job worth talking through on the phone.
Where they go
Central Missouri and surrounding areas.
Based out of Calwood, working across Callaway County and out from there, Fulton included. The truck comes to you, so if you are not sure whether you are too far out, the fastest way to find out is to ask.
Who turns up
Charlie Houchins
Charlie has run Houchins Hydro & Pumping since 2021. The reviews keep landing on the same two things: he turns up when he says, and he explains what he found instead of just handing over an invoice.
How they describe themselves: local, professional, trustworthy.
