Wright Way Excavation handles full septic system replacement across the western slope, from Grand Junction to Durango and everywhere between.
Expert Septic System Replacement in Complete Western Slope, CO
When a septic system reaches the end of its life, repair is no longer enough. Wright Way Excavation provides complete septic system replacement for homeowners and property owners across the western slope, including Delta, Montrose, Paonia, Fruita, Cedaredge, Ridgway, Cortez, Gunnison, Crested Butte, and surrounding communities. A full replacement means the old system is removed and a properly sized, site-matched system goes in its place. The western slope presents real challenges for this work. Rocky and clay-heavy soils common to areas like Ouray and Ridgway can limit drainage and require careful site evaluation before any excavation begins. Properties near irrigation ditches, common throughout Delta and Paonia, must meet setback requirements that affect where a new system can be placed. Brandon Wright approaches every replacement with the same attention to detail and honest communication he brings to every project. If your drains are slow, you smell sewage near the yard, or water is pooling above the drain field, call Wright Way Excavation to get a straight answer on what your property needs.

Septic System Replacement FAQ
Common questions about septic system replacement in Complete Western Slope, CO.
Full replacement is usually needed when the drain field has collapsed, sewage backs up repeatedly, or the tank has structural damage that repair cannot fix. If you are in Montrose or Delta and seeing pooling water above the drain field or sewage odors that won't go away, call Wright Way Excavation for an honest assessment.
Yes, Wright Way Excavation works on rural and sloped properties throughout the western slope, including areas around Ridgway, Ouray, and Placerville where rocky soil and steep grades are common. Brandon evaluates each site individually before any digging starts.
The old tank and failed components are excavated and removed from the site before the new system goes in. Wright Way Excavation handles the excavation work across service areas from Nucla and Naturita to Crested Butte and Gunnison.
Replacement is possible near irrigation ditches, but the new system must be placed to meet required setback distances from the ditch. Wright Way Excavation works with property owners in Delta and Paonia to find a compliant layout that fits the site.
In most full replacements, both the tank and the drain field are replaced together, especially when the drain field has failed. Wright Way Excavation assesses the full system on Grand Junction and surrounding western slope properties before recommending the right scope of work.
A properly replaced system is placed at required distances from your well to protect water quality. If your current system is failing and you rely on a private well in Cortez or Durango, replacing the system promptly reduces the risk of groundwater contamination.
