Excavation is at the heart of everything Colorado Septic Pros does. We also take on residential excavation projects for homeowners.
Dirt Work for Residential Properties
Residential excavation covers a wide range of projects, and what is involved depends on the property and what you are building or fixing. If you have dirt work in mind, tell us about it and we will talk through whether it is a fit for our crew.
Excavation Is Built Into Our Septic Work
Installing a septic system takes real excavation: digging for the tank, trenching for the lines, and shaping the leach field area. Our crew does this work regularly, with its own equipment. That experience carries over to other residential dirt work, and it means a project that includes both septic and excavation can be handled by one team.
Coordinating With the Rest of Your Project
When your project includes a septic system, a sewer line, or a waterline, we can coordinate the digging so the trenches and the work line up. See our pages for septic installation, sewer line repair, and waterline repair.
Before Any Dig: Utilities, Wells, and Setbacks
Before ground is broken on any residential property, underground utilities have to be marked, and in Colorado that starts with a call to 811. Wells, existing septic components, and property lines also shape where excavation can happen. Working through those details at the start is how a project avoids costly surprises.
Timing and the Seasons
Colorado winters affect excavation. When the ground freezes, digging gets harder, and things start to loosen up with the thaw in March. If your project has a target start date, tell us early so we can plan around the weather.
