Expert Sewer Connection & Approval in Wigan

Understanding Your Sewer Connection Project

Whether you are developing a new property or upgrading an existing one, connecting to the main sewer network is a fundamental part of a fully functioning drainage system. Perhaps you are replacing an old septic tank, adding an extension that requires new facilities, or connecting a previously unserviced plot. Each scenario has its own set of requirements and considerations. We help you navigate these, from initial assessment to understanding the scope of work for your specific project in Newton-Le-Willows. We focus on providing clear information, so you know exactly what is involved.

Navigating the Application & Approval Process

Connecting to the public sewer isn't just about digging a trench; it involves a formal application process with the local water authority – typically United Utilities in our area. You absolutely must get the necessary approval before any construction begins. We offer expert assistance with this, helping you prepare the required application details, submitting plans, and ensuring all conditions are met. This crucial step prevents delays and ensures your new connection complies with all legal and environmental standards, giving you peace of mind.

Our Full-Service Approach to Sewer Construction

Once approval is granted, our skilled team springs into action. We provide a complete, start-to-finish service for your sewer connection. This involves carefully planning the excavation, laying new pipes to the correct gradient, making the precise connection to the existing public sewer network, and then backfilling. We use high-quality materials and proven techniques to construct a durable, reliable drainage system for your property. Our work meets all current industry standards, ensuring longevity and proper function for years to come.

Expert Excavation and Site Reinstatement

Making a new sewer connection often means excavation work on your property, and sometimes even in roads or pavements. We manage the entire excavation process safely and efficiently. Our team is experienced in working within various environments, minimising disruption to your property and the surrounding area. Once the new sewer lines are laid and connected, we take great care with reinstatement. Whether it is your driveway, garden, or a public pathway, we restore the area to its original condition, leaving your property clean and tidy.

FAQ

Sewer Connection Questions

Find answers to common questions about connecting new or existing properties to the public sewer network in Wigan.

How much will it cost to unblock my drain?

Our call-out fee covers our travel, the diagnosis, and clearing simple blocks with rods. If we need to use the high-pressure jetting machine, we will give you a fixed quote before we start. You will always know what you are paying.

Are you really open 24 hours?

Yes. Drains don't wait for office hours to overflow, so we don't either. You can call us at 3am or on a Sunday afternoon, and we will be there.

What does your guarantee cover?

If we unblock a drain and it blocks up again within 30 days (and it isn't because someone has flushed something they shouldn't have), we will come back and clear it again for free.

Can you clean my driveway too?

Yes, we also offer professional pressure washing for driveways and patios to get rid of moss and grime.

How do I connect my property to the public sewer network?

To link up your private drainage to the public sewers, you first need to apply to your local water company. They must give their approval before any work starts. This is to make sure the connection is constructed properly and won't damage the existing network. We can help you with the technical information needed for the application.

What do I need to do before connecting a new house to the sewers?

You will need to submit a formal request to the water authority. They will check your plans to see how you intend to make the connections. Once they give the go-ahead, the work must be done to a high standard. In many cases, an inspection is required before the pipes are covered back up.

Are there charges for making a new sewer connection?

Yes, the water company will usually have application fees and infrastructure charges. These costs cover the administration and the impact the new connection has on the system. You will also have the cost of the physical work to lay the pipes from your property to the main sewer.

Can I connect my new drainage to an existing private sewer?

This depends on who owns the existing pipes and if they have the capacity for more waste. If the sewer is private, you will need the owner's permission. If it has been adopted by the water company, it is part of the public network, and the standard application process applies.

What is a build-over agreement and why is it required?

If you are building an extension over or near a public sewer, you must get approval from the water company. This is to make sure your new building doesn't put pressure on the pipes or stop them from being repaired in the future. A CCTV survey is often required to check the condition of the pipes before and after the work.
