Todd Creek is unincorporated Adams County north of Thornton, with a Brighton mailing address and ZIP 80602. Lots are commonly an acre or more, and many homes rely on an individual septic system instead of a city sewer. That changes what a slow drain means.
If several drains gurgle or slow down at once, or a toilet bubbles when the washer runs, the cause may be a full tank or a saturated drain field rather than a simple clog. Stop running water and do not keep flushing. The tank itself needs a septic pumper, and the district's septic program calls for pumping and inspection every four years. If the tank is not the problem, drain cleaning clears the house line, and sewer line repair applies when the pipe between the house and the tank is cracked, separated or full of roots. We run a camera through the line before recommending any digging.
Water comes from Todd Creek Village Metropolitan District. The district maintains the mains in the streets. You own the service pipe from the main connection into and through your house, and on acreage that buried run can be long. A soft or unusually green spot in the yard, low pressure, or a meter that keeps moving with every fixture off points to a leak in that pipe. Shut the main valve at the house if water is surfacing, then see water line repair.
Call when water is coming up in the yard, sewage is backing into a tub or floor drain, or the house has no water. Our phone line is open Monday to Saturday, 9am to 6pm. We explain what we find and put a written scope and price in front of you to approve before work begins. (720) 856-5811.

Plumber in Todd Creek · Local Notes
- •Todd Creek is an unincorporated community in Adams County with a Brighton mailing address and ZIP 80602, so homes are served by Todd Creek Village Metropolitan District rather than Thornton's city utilities.
- •The district supplies treated water from alluvial wells near the South Platte River and runs a separate raw water system for irrigation. Raw water is not safe for drinking, cooking or bathing.
- •The district runs a septic management program because many homes use individual septic systems, and it requires a tank to be pumped and inspected every four years. It also has a wastewater connection agreement with Metro Water Recovery, so septic or sewer depends on the address.
- •Owners are responsible for the service pipe from the district's main into and through the house. On lots of an acre or more that buried run can be long, and Front Range clay soil and winter frost both work on it.
