Your Keaau Cesspool & Septic Crew
Keaau is the gateway to Puna, the town at the junction where Highway 11 climbs toward Volcano and Highway 130 drops toward Pahoa, and the place every Puna homeowner passes on the way to Hilo. The old plantation town center around Old Volcano Road and Keaau Village has a mix of camp-era houses and newer homes, the Shipman industrial park sits on the Hilo side, and the big subdivisions start right at the edge of town: Hawaiian Paradise Park makai, Orchidland and Ainaloa mauka and south. Keaau itself is largely unsewered; the older houses are on cesspools and the newer builds and the conversions are on septic. The land is young lava with a thin skin of soil in places and bare pahoehoe in others, and the rain is heavy enough that a cesspool near the bottom of a lot can take on groundwater after a storm. Because it is the hub, Keaau also sees a steady flow of first-time Big Island buyers who have never owned a cesspool and want to understand what they are getting into. We pump, inspect, convert and repair systems in and around Keaau every week. Tell us the street and what the system is doing, and we will give you an honest answer and a price before the truck rolls.

Common Cesspool & Septic Issues in Keaau
The cesspool and septic problems we see most around here, and how we handle them.
Camp-era cesspools in the old town
The plantation houses around Old Volcano Road and Keaau Village sit on cesspools that are often older than their owners. Decades of sludge seal the rock and the pit holds more each year. A thorough pump-out, with the walls and refill rate checked, tells you whether it has years left or is near the end.
New owners who have never had a cesspool
Keaau is where a lot of mainland buyers land first. They know septic; they have never heard of a cesspool. We explain what is in the yard, how often it needs pumping, how close it sits to the catchment tank, and what the state deadline means for this house, in plain words.
Groundwater in low pits after storms
On the lower, flatter lots around Keaau a cesspool can fill from the surrounding rock during a long wet spell, not just from the house. If yours backs up only when it rains, that is what is happening. Pumping gets you through the storm, and we will tell you honestly whether the pit is still viable.
