Overview

Lompico is one of those Santa Cruz County places you commit to. The road in, the community's own character, homes set back among madrone and redwood on parcels that were never meant for tract-housing infrastructure. There is no city water main waiting at the corner. Sewer doesn't exist. Your plumbing and septic system is your utility company, and when it fails, you're not calling a municipal crew.

Wade's Plumbing & Septic serves Lompico with the patience remote work demands. Family-owned, county-based, we've repaired well lines buried under twenty years of leaf litter and replaced drainfields where the only flat spot was someone's idea of a parking pad.

Mountain plumbing without shortcuts

Lompico homeowners call us for problems that stack:

Wells first

Most properties draw from private wells. Symptoms at the house (sputtering faucets, pressure swings, sediment), often start at the pump or pressure tank. We diagnose the full chain, not just the fixture that complained loudest.

Lines that cross the property

Supply and sewer runs can span a hundred yards or more. Leaks hide. Roots intrude. Older PVC and ABS joints fail where the ground moves on wet winters. We locate before we dig.

Cold and power

Winter storms knock out power; well pumps stop; pipes in uninsulated floors freeze. Lompico's elevation and canopy mean freeze risk runs longer than coastal Santa Cruz.

Add-ons and occupancy

Cabins converted to full-time homes, workshops with sinks, and multi-generational living push old pipe and small water heaters past their design. We right-size repairs and replacements.

Septic in a community built on independence

  • Tank location and lid exposure when records are missing
  • Inspections for sales, refinancing, or catching up after years without service
  • Risers, filters, alarms, practical upgrades that pay back on the next maintenance cycle
  • Failed drainfield diagnosis, wet areas downhill, sewage odors, backups during heavy use
  • System replacement with engineered septic coordination when Lompico slopes and setbacks won't allow a straight swap

Lompico links to Zayante and Boulder Creek

Residents share roads and watershed with Zayante and shop through Boulder Creek for daily life. We cover both from the same mountain crew.
