When you're building new in Manteno or adding onto an existing property, the sewer line is one of the first systems that needs to be in place before anything else can move forward. Allied Water Services handles new sewer installation with the grading, trenching, and materials required to ensure the line flows properly and passes inspection. You're working with crews who understand how Manteno soil behaves, where municipal hookups are located, and what local inspectors expect to see before signing off on the work.

The installation process involves digging trenches at the correct slope, laying approved pipe materials that meet current plumbing codes, and connecting to the municipal sewer system or septic infrastructure depending on your property. Allied Water Services coordinates directly with builders, inspectors, and local authorities to keep timelines on track. Every connection is checked for alignment and seal integrity before backfilling begins, so the system is ready to handle full use once your project is complete.

What Happens During a Proper Sewer Install

Your new sewer line starts with excavation that follows the planned grade from your building to the connection point. In Manteno, that often means working around existing utilities, coordinating depth with frost line requirements, and ensuring the trench base is stable enough to support the pipe without shifting. Allied Water Services uses laser levels and grading tools to confirm slope before any pipe is laid, so wastewater moves through the line by gravity alone.

Once the line is installed and inspected, you'll have a sewer system that handles daily use without backing up or settling. The pipe is bedded in clean gravel or sand, compacted in layers, and tested for leaks before the trench is closed. You won't see sagging sections, slow drains, or alignment issues that show up months later because the work wasn't done to grade.

Allied Water Services uses materials approved by local code and installs them according to specifications that account for soil type, load-bearing requirements, and connection standards. The system is designed to integrate with municipal infrastructure or private septic systems depending on your property layout. If repairs or expansions are needed years down the line, the install documentation and layout make future work straightforward.

Homeowners and builders often have questions about timelines, inspections, and what happens if soil conditions or existing utilities complicate the install.

What happens if the trench hits rock or existing utilities?
You'll be notified immediately, and the crew will adjust the plan to work around the obstruction or remove it if necessary. Utility locates are completed before digging begins to minimize conflicts.

When does the inspection happen?
Inspections typically occur after the pipe is laid and before backfilling begins. Allied Water Services coordinates with the local inspector to schedule the visit and ensure the system meets all code requirements.

What if my property doesn't have municipal sewer access?
You'll need a septic system instead, and the sewer line will connect to the septic tank rather than a municipal main. Allied Water Services can install the line and coordinate with septic contractors as needed.
