Multi-tenant buildings and separate services

When a building is divided among several tenants, or an old single-tenant building is split into suites, its utilities often need to be divided too. Each tenant may need its own water meter, its own sewer connection or a separate electrical service, and the water and sewer owners set the rules for how that is arranged.

Work of this kind usually includes:

A survey of what exists

Records, a South Carolina 811 locate and hydro excavation at the points where services enter the building.

A plan with the owners

The utility decides whether new taps, a meter bank or a private distribution line is allowed; the engineer and the plumber design the rest.

Installation

New services, meter settings and conduit, with drilled crossings beneath parking lots that must stay open for tenants.

Inspection and restoration

Each connection inspected before backfill, and pavement restored.

Tenants who are moving in can stay informed by asking the landlord when shutoffs are planned.

We also handle repairs and replacements for homeowners, businesses and public owners in Rock Hill.

South Carolina 811

In South Carolina, S.C. Code Title 58, Chapter 36 requires a locate request to South Carolina 811 before excavation. The law sets the notice at no less than three and no more than twelve full working days, and a ticket expires 15 working days after the commencement date. A site across the state line uses NC811 instead.
