Wheat Ridge, Colorado

Septic and grease trap service in Wheat Ridge

Wheat Ridge kept its large lots. That is unusual for a city this close to Denver, and it is the reason we still find working septic systems here when most neighboring cities have none.

The city is broadly served by sanitation districts, but the older agricultural parcels, the properties along the Clear Creek corridor, and some of the horse property sized lots north of 44th were built before district lines reached them. A number of those still have tanks in the ground.

The commercial side runs along West 38th Avenue, Wadsworth, and Kipling, where the restaurant base has grown considerably. Grease trap and interceptor service in those kitchens is steady work.

Local conditions

Local context for Wheat Ridge property owners

County
Jefferson County
Septic or sewer
Most of Wheat Ridge is served by sanitation districts. Working onsite septic systems remain on a subset of older large lot and formerly agricultural parcels, particularly along the Clear Creek corridor and in the areas that were annexed later.
Soil and site conditions
Clear Creek valley ground includes alluvial deposits with better drainage than the surrounding clay bench soils. Parcels near the creek can also sit closer to seasonal groundwater, which limits absorption field depth.
Permit authority
Jefferson County Public Health, Environmental Health Services, permits and inspects onsite wastewater treatment systems for unincorporated Jefferson County property in the Wheat Ridge area.
Typical system age
Surviving tanks here are typically mid century installations on parcels that were farm or orchard ground before the suburbs arrived. Baffle deterioration and undersized tanks are the usual findings.
Response time
Wheat Ridge is about fifteen minutes from our Westminster shop, which makes both scheduled and same day work easy here.

County septic permit rules that apply here

Septic permits, inspections, and transfer of title rules are set by the county, not the city. Read the guide for your county before you file anything.
