"Crow Creek did an amazing job pumping and cleaning my septic tank. They showed up on time and were very professional. They also were respectful of my property and cleaned up after the job was done. I will definitely hire them again. Thank you!!!"

"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 was looking for a custom job where my backflow prevention valve could be easily and quickly replaced, since I’ve had numerous issues over the last 30 years at my house with the sprinkler system leaking from freezing and general rough winter weather . We set up a date to go over the project, and he came out to my home in Fort Collins right on time. We immediately hit it off. I told him what I wanted, and he very quickly recommended one of his modular custom BPV setups. I loved his idea. He came a week later and did the work in a few hours. His system is so much better than what I was envisioning. He is one of those very talented, humble and kind guys that just gets the job done, quickly with easy communication. I would highly recommend Brett for any of your home’s plumbing issues. "

"Waldo and his guys were honest and straightforward in evaluating my sewer problem: they told me what needed to be done and as importantly, what didn't need to be done. Another company came out and stated that the entire line had to be replaced, even though most of it is PVC since a remodel in the 90s. Waldo answered my questions directly, telling me how they would approach it and what could happen that would involve more work and therefore most cost. Even with these caveats their bid was anywhere from 20 to 60% cheaper than other bids we got. They sent me a video of the completed work showing replacement of the broken pipe as well as the rest of the sewer line. With the five year warranty, I feel peace of mind and confidence that they will stand by their work. If there is any downside, it's that they are very busy so sometimes it takes a bit to get back to you. But I never felt put off or neglected. Definitely will use them in the future for any plumbing work that comes up."

"A to Z planned my kitchen, removed the old one, installed the new one, and took care of the plumbing and electric. They took care of ordering the countertops and oversaw the installation. Matt and Alexander installed my back splash and it came out beautiful. I highly recommend them . A pleasure to deal with, very clean and professional . "

"Colorado Paradise Builders were responsive when we asked for a proposal to finish our basement. They created a thorough proposal with a price, timeline and specific details on the project. They followed through on everything in a timely manner. Everything cost what it was supposed to cost; their tradesmen were courteous and clean, and they completed the project on time. I would not hesitate to recommend them to a friend or use them again for another home project."

FAQs for septic system installation and replacement projects in Erie, 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.
