Growing neighborhoods and their utilities
Where new neighborhoods are being added, much of the underground work is about extending what already exists: a water main lengthened to reach a new street, a sewer line carried to a new phase, storm pipe connected to an existing system, conduit laid ahead of paving. Extensions have to match the existing system in size, material and grade, and they have to connect to it without disrupting the homes it already serves.
A few points make extensions go smoothly:
- Knowing exactly where the existing line ends and what condition its end is in, which may mean exposing it with hydro excavation before the connection is designed in detail.
- Agreeing with the utility how and when the connection is made, and what testing and inspection it requires.
- Planning crossings of existing roads, where directional drilling may avoid cutting pavement that is already in service.
- Sequencing gravity lines before pressure lines and conduit, so that grades are protected.
Builders, developers and general contractors can send their plans with the request. We also handle repairs and single connections for homeowners, businesses and public owners.
