Our Professional Abandonment Process

We follow strict protocols to ensure your septic tank is abandoned safely and in compliance with all Fresno County regulations:

Permits & City Coordination

We obtain all necessary permits and coordinate with the city for connection approval and inspections.

Excavation & Trenching

Professional excavation creates the trench from your home to the municipal sewer line with proper slope.

Install Sewer Lateral

We install new sewer pipe (lateral) from your home's plumbing to the city main connection point.

What to Expect During Your Sewer Tie-In Project

Understanding the process helps you prepare for your sewer connection project:

Project Timeline

Most residential sewer tie-ins take 3-7 days depending on distance, soil conditions, and weather. We'll provide a detailed timeline during your consultation.

Yard Disruption

Excavation is necessary to install the sewer lateral. We minimize disruption and restore your landscaping after completion. Mark any underground utilities or irrigation systems beforehand.

Water Usage During Work

In most cases, you can continue using water during installation. We'll notify you if any temporary shutoffs are needed.

Costs & Fees

Project costs vary based on distance to the main, excavation requirements, and city connection fees. We provide detailed estimates including all permits and fees.

Ongoing Sewer Bills

After connection, you'll receive monthly sewer bills from the city. While there's an ongoing cost, you'll save on septic maintenance and avoid potential repair expenses.

Good News: Financial Assistance Many cities offer financial assistance programs or low-interest loans for sewer connections. We can help you explore available options.
