“We are currently building a home in Westcliffe Colorado. I was so pleased when, through a mutual friend, I reached out to Shawn Gaide of Colorado Forestry. I found him to be trustworthy, courteous, and dependable. As busy as all of the industries are now, the work I hired Shawn to do was done correctly, on time, and in the price range we discussed. All in all, I would highly recommend Shawn Gaide of Colorado Forestry & Earthworks.”

“Char & I would like to thank you for returning our phone call and showing up to look at our erosion problem when you said you would. We were so surprised that you could begin work so quickly, get equipment here, arrange for materials and perform the project in a single day. Most comforting was the final invoice matched the original quote.”

Septic Installations/Utilities

We are licensed by the state of Colorado to design and install On-Site Wastewater Treatment Systems in Custer and Fremont County. Furthermore, we are licensed to perform soil analysis that will need to be done prior to obtaining a septic permit which will be used to determine the size of the system and whether or not an engineered system will be required. We can also trench any utility as well as set and bury tanks.
