Our Installation Process
Free Site Evaluation
We start with a no-cost visit to your property to assess soil conditions, lot layout, and your system needs. No pressure, no obligation.
Soil Testing & System Design
We perform a perc test to determine soil absorption rates, then design a system that meets Colorado health department requirements and your specific site conditions.
Permits & Approvals
We handle all permit applications and county approvals on your behalf. You won't need to chase paperwork — we take care of it all before a single shovel hits the ground.
Excavation & Installation
Our compact equipment and experienced crew excavate carefully and install your tank, drain field, and all connecting lines with precision — minimizing disruption to your yard.
Inspection & Sign-Off
Once installed, we schedule the county inspection and walk you through the completed system. We don't consider a job done until it passes and you're satisfied.
Ongoing Support
After installation we provide full guidance on maintenance, schedules, and what to watch for. We're always a phone call away if questions come up later.
Options
Septic System Types We Install
Not all properties are the same. We evaluate your site and recommend the system that fits your soil, lot, and budget — then install it right.
Conventional Gravity System
The most common and cost-effective option for properties with suitable soil. Uses gravity to distribute effluent through a drain field. Ideal for standard residential lots with good percolation.
Mound System
Required when the natural soil isn't suitable for a standard drain field — high water tables, shallow bedrock, or poor percolation. The drain field is elevated above ground level in an engineered mound.
Aerobic Treatment Unit (ATU)
Uses an aeration process to treat wastewater more thoroughly before dispersal. Ideal for smaller lots, environmentally sensitive areas, or properties where conventional systems aren't permitted.
Chamber System
An alternative to traditional gravel drain fields using plastic arch chambers. Easier to install, longer lasting, and often preferred in areas with stricter regulations.
