Service Area
Manor sits on US-290 east of Austin, in Travis County, and it has grown fast. The 2020 census counted 13,652 people here, up from about 5,000 in 2010. The city's own October 2025 estimate puts it past 21,000. Septic starts where the city lines stop, on the acreage along county roads toward Littig, New Sweden and Kimbro.
Bravo Septic is based in Leander, working Williamson and Travis County, about 30 miles around. Manor is the east edge of that, and we come over on SH 130 and US-290. We run our own vacuum pump truck, and septic tank pumping is the main job out here. We also inspect and repair systems, set risers and take emergency septic service calls, so call or text (512) 887-4458.

The City of Manor runs its own water and wastewater system. The city collects sewage through its mains and lift stations, then treats it at its own plant. Inside those lines, none of this applies to you.
Outside them, a tank in the yard does the job. State rules say only a registered hauler may empty it, and Bravo Septic is a TCEQ-registered sludge transporter. Manda, Lund and Webberville sit east and north of town in Travis County. So do the acreage tracts along Blake Manor Road, Burleson Manor Road, Taylor Lane and Old Kimbro Road.
The city's own October 2025 estimate counts about 21,800 people inside Manor. Add Shadowglen and Presidential Meadows out in the ETJ and it is near 33,700. Almost all of that is new. The tanks are on the older farm places the sewer lines never reached.
Manor sits east of I-35, on the Blackland Prairie. Texas A&M AgriLife Extension puts the dividing line right at I-35. West of it is Edwards Plateau limestone. East of it is Blackland Prairie clay, and Manor is on the clay side.
Houston Black is the Texas state soil, and the USDA calls it a classic shrink and swell clay. It cracks open a half inch to four inches wide in dry weather. Water pours straight into those cracks. Once the clay is wet it closes up and takes water very slowly.
That is hard ground for a drainfield. AgriLife's on-site sewage guide says only nonstandard drain fields can be used in clay, because clay carries water so poorly. So an overdue tank does more damage out here. Solids get past a full tank and land in a field that already drains slowly. That is where drain field repair starts.
Texas hands septic permitting to local authorized agents, and TCEQ publishes the list. For Travis County the list names the county itself, for the unincorporated area and for the City of Manor. So one office covers the town and the acreage around it. That office is Travis County Transportation and Natural Resources.
A permit is required to construct, alter, repair or extend a system. State rules carve out a short list of emergency repairs. That list covers tank lids, inlet and outlet devices, risers and solid lines. Those get reported to the county in writing within 72 hours. Anything bigger goes through the permit, and we handle that paperwork with you.
The clay shows up in what gets built here. TCEQ's 2025 figures for the Travis County agent show 144 new systems authorized that year. Of those, 89 used drip irrigation and 24 used spray, and exactly one was a standard trench or bed. If you are not sure what is in your yard, septic inspections answer that.
Property changes hands fast out here. The city's own numbers show Manor more than doubling between the 2010 and 2020 census counts. It has climbed by more than half again since. A buyer on acreage can inherit a tank and a field nobody has looked at in years.
Texas permits transfer with the property automatically when it sells. The county permit file holds the scale drawing showing where the tank and the field were put in. We pull that record and compare it with what is actually in the ground.
Option period inspections for a sale run on a short clock, so book in the first day or two. We inspect with the tank pumped, because a real inspection needs to see the tank empty. The written report comes within 24 hours of the site visit, with photos and repair quotes on request.

Called Bravo Septic to pump our tank in Leander after about four years. Isaac gave me a firm price up front, showed up in the window he said, and had it done in under an hour. He popped the lids, showed me the sludge level, and told me I could probably go another three years before the next one. No upsell, no surprises on the invoice. Will be using them from here on out.
Our place in Jonestown is at the end of a long gravel drive and a couple of pumpers wouldn’t even come out. Bravo Septic had no problem getting the truck back there and pumped both compartments. Left the site cleaner than he found it and backfilled the lids properly. Great to find somebody who will actually service this area.
Septic backed up into the downstairs shower on a Saturday night. Bravo Septic answered the phone and had a truck at the house the next morning. Turned out the tank was way overdue. He pumped it, checked the outlet, and explained why it happened. Will use them again.
Very positive experience with Isaac. He arrived on time and quickly located the tanks that we weren’t exactly sure where they were. He took care of business and left us in better shape than he found us.
We needed our septic pumped and Isaac from Bravo Septic got the job done! He was on time, professional, and kind. Explained everything that would entail upfront, including the cost. He was respectful of our property, we really appreciate that. Will definitely use him again. And would recommend his services to family and friends.
My sister moved to Leander this week and I was helping her to find someone to have the septic tank pumped out. I called three places and Isaac was the first to answer his phone. Price was fair, job was thorough, timing was prompt, professional all around. Glad we found Bravo.
