"They conducted a thorough review of my aerobic septic system and spent an hour or so explaining what they found and my alternatives. They also pumped the settling and overflow tanks."

"The company showed up when they said they would and completed the job within the time frame that they stated. Communication was a little rough with the field, but communication with the office was very responsive. Considering the extent of the work and the constraints within which they had to work, there was remarkably little collateral damage done. Unfortunately I was not able to witness the work before it was covered up and so I cannot comment on the quality of the installation, but can say that the company did a good job protecting the surrounding landscaped areas and seemed contentious and thoughtful in their approach to the work. I would definitely work with them again."

"I had him replace the water lines on the hot water heater. The owner, his name is Jordan, he was on the ball. He knew his stuff. He was responsive. He was very efficient in getting me an estimate right away and thorough about understanding the work and letting me know what to expect and then getting it done very timely."

"We had a backup in our main and these guys came out within 30 minutes on a Sunday. They cleared the blockage for us and even offered to come back and clean it if it happened again within 30 days (which it did, and they came out immediately to clear it again). They were very helpful and I would highly recommend them for anyone needing a plumber."

"I highly recommend Seamus, Kellen, and their team at Doone Brothers. They did my septic as well as my full site excavation/grading/driveway project. My site is very steep and challenging. I found them to be hardworking and fair. They went above and beyond with their communication and effort on my project and Iâ m super grateful to them for the work they did."

"Alexander and Matt spent a day replacing our kitchen faucet and wooden panels under the sink, replacing a toilet in a guest bathroom, and fixing two sliding doors. They were respectful and explained everything they were doing (in layman's terms), and they gave options of what to fix/replace. We have asked for additional estimates, including larger kitchen and bathroom projects, and we look forward to working with them again!"

FAQs for septic system installation and replacement projects in Arvada, CO

The smallest standard septic system uses a 500-gallon tank, which costs between $875 and $1,150 installed. This size works well for single-occupant dwellings with minimal wastewater production. However, many local regulations specify minimum tank sizes, so check with your building department before committing to this compact option. Some jurisdictions require at least 750 gallons regardless of home size to ensure adequate waste processing capacity.

The installation timeline varies based on site conditions, permit processing, and contractor schedules. The process includes obtaining permits, conducting soil tests, excavation, tank placement, leach field construction, and final connections. Weather conditions, soil challenges, and inspection scheduling can all affect the overall timeline. It's wise to begin planning well in advance of when you need the system operational.

The most economical approach is to install a conventional anaerobic system with a plastic tank. To minimize costs while maintaining legality, obtain multiple quotes from licensed installers, consider scheduling during their slower seasons, and handle basic site preparation yourself. Never skip permits or required testing to save money—illegal installations can result in significant fines and mandatory removal, ultimately costing far more than doing it right initially.

Regular pumping helps prevent system failures and extends operational life. Most small systems require pumping every three to five years, though frequency depends on household size and usage patterns. Pumping services cost between $290 and $530, making this maintenance expense relatively minor compared to potential repair costs ranging from $500 to $2,600 for neglected systems. Establishing a regular maintenance schedule based on your installer's recommendations helps avoid costly emergency services.
