Cooke County lies west of Grayson along the Red River, with Gainesville as its county seat on I-35. Much of the county outside town is ranch land and acreage, and nearly all of it is on septic.
The soils change from east to west, from prairie clay to the sandy loams and post oaks of the Cross Timbers, so two neighbors a few miles apart can need very different systems.

Gainesville questions
Septic questions from Gainesville.
Do Grayson County septic rules apply in Cooke County?
No. Each county (or city) acting as TCEQ’s authorized agent adopts its own order, which can be stricter than the state minimum. In Cooke County, follow the requirements of Cooke County’s permitting office; we work with the rules wherever the job is.
Will you service my aerobic system in Cooke County if someone else installed it?
Yes. We service all brands of septic systems, aerobic and conventional, regardless of who installed them.
How often should a ranch home in Cooke County pump its septic tank?
For a conventional tank, the usual guide is every three to five years, sooner for a large household or heavy use. Aerobic units are pumped based on sludge depth and the manufacturer’s schedule.
