Potable Water • Sanitary Sewer • Fire Service
Water & Sewer Line Construction
EMC installs the pressurized and gravity lines that put a site into service — potable water mains, water and fire-service lines, sanitary sewer mains and laterals, manholes and lift-station site work — bedded, tested, disinfected where required and tied cleanly into the existing system.
Wet Utilities, Done Right
The Lines a Site Can't Open Without
Water and sewer work is unforgiving. A joint that leaks, bedding that isn't right, or a tie-in that fails a test can stop a project cold — and it all happens underground where mistakes are expensive to find.
EMC builds water and sewer with the discipline that gets lines accepted the first time: proper bedding and haunching, controlled backfill and compaction, careful joint work, and testing coordinated with the utility owner or engineer. Because our own excavation crews open and restore the trench, the whole scope stays with one contractor from cut to closeout.
We work for general contractors, municipalities, developers and utility owners — on new mains, extensions, service connections and replacements.
Full Scope
Water & Sewer Work We Perform
Pressurized water, gravity sewer and the connections that tie a site into the system.
Potable & Fire Water
- Potable water mains
- Water-service lines
- Fire-service lines & hydrants
- Valves, fittings & appurtenances
- Main extensions & loops
- Tie-ins & wet connections
Sanitary Sewer
- Sanitary sewer mains
- Sewer laterals & services
- Manholes & structures
- Gravity & force-main work
- Lift-station site work
- Existing-system connections
Testing & Restoration
- Bedding, backfill & compaction
- Pressure & leakage testing
- Disinfection & chlorination coordination
- Bacteriological sampling coordination
- Existing-utility coordination
- Repairs & replacements
Accepted the First Time
Tested, Documented, Tied In
Getting a line built is only half the job — getting it accepted is the other half. EMC plans the testing and connection sequence up front so the work passes inspection and the site goes into service on schedule.
- Pressure & leakage testing
- Disinfection & sampling coordination
- Utility-owner & engineer coordination
- Existing-utility locating & protection
- Controlled tie-ins & shutdowns
- As-built information for closeout
