About Custom Sewer & Septic Service

Custom Sewer and Septic Service in Colorado Springs handles both sewer and septic work, which is a meaningful distinction in a city where some neighborhoods connect to municipal sewer lines and others rely entirely on private septic systems. That dual focus makes them a practical call whether you're dealing with a blocked sewer line in a central Colorado Springs neighborhood or a failing drain field in a rural property on the outskirts. Their name suggests a tailored approach rather than a one-size-fits-all service model. You can reach them at (719) 633-0236 to get a clearer picture of what they offer.

Services & Process

Custom Sewer and Septic Service covers both sides of the underground waste management equation, handling sewer line cleaning and blockages as well as full septic system service. On the septic side, this includes tank pumping, inspections, and likely drain field evaluation and repair. Sewer services typically involve hydro-jetting, drain cleaning, and camera inspection to diagnose blockages or root intrusion in municipal sewer connections. Having both capabilities under one company is useful for properties that have experienced system conversions or for commercial clients who manage mixed-infrastructure properties.

Service Area

Custom Sewer and Septic Service operates in Colorado Springs and serves customers across the greater El Paso County area. Their sewer and septic expertise makes them useful in both the developed urban core of the city and the rural and semi-rural communities surrounding it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my problem is a sewer line issue or a septic system issue?
If multiple drains in your home are slow or backing up at the same time, the problem is usually downstream in either your sewer line or your septic tank. A technician can run a camera through the line to pinpoint where the blockage or failure is occurring.
What is hydro-jetting and when is it used?
Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to blast through grease, roots, and debris inside sewer or septic lines. It's often used when standard snaking doesn't fully clear a blockage or when lines need a thorough cleaning as part of a preventive maintenance program.
Can roots really damage my sewer or septic lines in Colorado Springs?
Yes. Tree roots naturally seek out moisture and can infiltrate small cracks or loose joints in underground pipes over time. Once inside, they grow and can completely block flow, and they're common in older neighborhoods with mature trees and aging pipe systems.
Does Colorado Springs have areas that require septic instead of city sewer?
Yes. Many properties outside the city's service boundaries, including rural areas to the east in Black Forest and areas to the south toward Fountain and Security-Widefield, rely on private septic systems. Even within city limits, some older or rural-adjacent properties may not be connected to municipal sewer.
How long does a septic tank pumping appointment usually take?
A standard residential pump-out typically takes 30 minutes to an hour, depending on tank size, accessibility, and how full the tank is. If access to the tank lid needs to be dug out or if there are additional inspection steps involved, it may take longer.
Should I have my grease trap cleaned separately from my septic tank?
Yes. Grease traps, which are most common in commercial kitchens and restaurants, are separate from the main septic tank and need to be cleaned on their own schedule, often more frequently. Skipping grease trap maintenance can cause grease to overflow into the main septic system and create expensive downstream problems.
