House renovation - New connections

Water connection

If you want to replace your existing supply because you need a larger supply or you want to change the entry of the water pipe into your site from the existing highway you should apply to us for a new connection.

If you are converting the property into additional properties that will require their own water accounts they will need their own supply. This is usually needed when the property is sold. These are the high level process steps for a new connection to an existing water main.

Sewer connection

If you’re planning on connecting to the sewer, this will require our approval. Where you are installing either a lateral drain or a sewer, you will first need to enter into an adoption agreement.
