    Why Choose Us for Your Sewer Line Installation?

    • Over 20 Years of Local Experience: We’ve been installing sewer lines across Clark County since 1999. We know the local soil layers, the depth requirements, and exactly how to grade a line so it drains perfectly without backing up.
    • Fully Licensed, Bonded, and Insured: Your property is 100% covered, and our work is fully compliant with all safety and environmental regulations.
    • Minimal Landscape Disturbance: We work with precision to preserve your driveway, sidewalks, and landscaping wherever possible.
    • In-House Excavation: We own our fleet of excavators and manage the entire job from the first scoop of dirt to the final backfill.
    • Upfront Pricing, No Surprises: You will receive a clear, honest breakdown before any work begins.
    • City Permit and Inspection Handling: Forget the municipal red tape. We handle the paperwork, pull the necessary utility permits, and coordinate directly with local inspectors to ensure your line is fully approved and code-compliant.

    How Does Our Installation Process Work?

    Here’s what you can expect when you work with our team:

    • Step 1 – Determine Length, Height, and Elevation: The correct pipe length, height, and elevation need to be determined. This ensures there’s adequate drainage. Call 811 to mark existing underground utilities.
    • Step 2 – Create the Trench and Clear Debris: Then, a trench needs to be created to make space for the pipe. This can take more time if there are tree roots, rocks, or other debris in the way.
    • Step 3 – Lay and Connect the Pipe: Lower the new sewer pipes onto the sand bed, fit them together, and seal the joints to prevent leaks. Install an outdoor cleanout pipe near the foundation.
    • Step 4 – Inspection: Leave the trench open so a municipal inspector can review the line, verify the slope, and officially sign off on the installation.
    • Step 5 – Backfill and Compact the Ground: Fill the trench back in with dirt and mechanically compact it in layers so the ground does not sink or cave in later. Sewer line installation may take 1 day to a few days to complete.

    How Much Does a New Sewer Line Install in Clark County Cost?

    On average, it costs around $2,500 to $6,000 to install a new sewer line. Yes, this is a wide range, and your price can still be lower or higher depending on the needs of your property. For example, sometimes tree removal, repaving, and land clearing are required, which can all drive the cost up significantly. No two sewer line installations are the same.

    These are some of the main factors that can affect your sewer installation price:

    • Location: Bigger projects may demand more excavation and cost more
    • Building Type: Whether you live in a townhouse or a single-family home, your sewer line installation will be different. If you live in an HOA, you could also save on the installation expenses
    • Permits: sewer installs typically require municipal permits, with costs ranging from $400 to $1,500
