How It Works

Sewer Connections for New Construction & Additions

Published May 19, 2026 · 5 min read

A new sewer connection is unglamorous work that your whole project depends on. Get the slope, bedding, and permits right and it disappears into the background for decades. Get them wrong and it fails fast.

What Proper Installation Requires

  • Correct, consistent downhill slope end to end
  • Proper bedding so the pipe doesn't settle
  • The right pipe material and diameter for the load
  • Sealed joints and a cleanout for future access
  • Town permits and inspection sign-off

Septic-to-Sewer Conversions

When municipal sewer reaches your street, converting from septic means a new lateral, a proper connection to the main, and decommissioning the old tank to code. We handle the whole process, permits included.
