Colton has a vast array of knowledge for your septic or water needs. We hired Colton to tile our tree Nursery, run water lines and set our hydrants. He shows up when he says he will and stuck to his bid, no hidden costs, etc. We'll hire him again when we expand! Highly recommend!

FAQ

What services does Erickson Water Septic & Sewer Lewis provide?

We offer a full range of septic and sewer services, including septic and sewer cleaning, maintenance and repair, excavation, and dirt work for both residential and commercial clients in Lewis, IA and surrounding counties. Our team has the equipment and experience to handle everything from routine cleaning to major projects.

How often should my septic system be cleaned or inspected?

Regular septic maintenance helps prevent costly issues and system failure. Most systems should be inspected every 1–3 years and pumped every 3–5 years, depending on your household size, tank capacity, and water usage. Professional inspection can identify problems early before they become serious.

What are signs that my septic or sewer system needs attention?

Common signs include slow draining fixtures, sewage odors, soggy areas in your yard, unusually green grass over the drainfield, or gurgling noises in your drains. If you notice any of these, contact us to diagnose and fix the issue before it worsens.

Do I need to do anything to prepare for septic service or excavation?

Before service, we recommend making the area as accessible as possible and marking any underground utilities if known. Our team can assist with locating the system and handling excavation safely as needed.

Will Erickson Water Septic & Sewer Lewis handle permits and regulations?

Yes. Depending on the project, permits may be required for installation or major repairs. We work with local authorities and help ensure your project meets regulatory requirements.

What should I avoid putting down my drains?

Avoid putting grease, fats, coffee grounds, harsh chemicals, diapers, wipes, and non‑biodegradable items down your drains. These can disrupt the biological processes in your septic tank and lead to clogs and system failure.

How quickly can I get an estimate or service appointment?

We provide timely, professional estimates and strive to schedule service appointments as soon as possible. Contact us to discuss your needs and get pricing information.

What areas do you serve?
