Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Feb 28, 2014 7:35 pm Hi all, We are looking to do a knock down rebuild in Hurstville Council & have a tender which all looks ok. But we are concerned about the provisional amount for: Allow to connect to Sewer Main outside of property boundary PA $3000 We don't know if this means we need to just connect to existign pipes within our property or connect to the sewer mains which is located about 4m away on the other side of our road. We are in normal suburban block, clay type soil, less than a meter fall and all services are connected at the front of the house. But we have been told by plumber friends we will need to dig up the road & connect to the mains which will cost more like $10,000. Does anyone have any ideas/feedback on this please?

Re: Help please - Sewer connection for KDRB 2Feb 28, 2014 7:54 pm For our KDRB, the builder got a drawing from Sydney Water. They said they will lay new pipe to the existing sewer connection point at the mains. I'd imagine they're all done that way. I don't think they'd dig up the road though, why couldn't they tunnel under it? Re: Help please - Sewer connection for KDRB 3Feb 28, 2014 7:58 pm Thanks kidsbuggingme. Did your builder tunnel under? Was it thousands of $$$? Just trying to figure out if $3k is even going to go close to what it will cost Building Nu Caprice 35 Accepted Tender 3/14 Construction Cert 11/9/14 Slab poured 19/11/14 Frame completed 21/1/15 Bricks completed 26/3/15 Roof completed 29/5/15 Lockup 15/6/15 Walkthough is NEXT! Re: Help please - Sewer connection for KDRB 4Mar 01, 2014 7:07 am Ours is at the back of our property, not even close to that cost. Your best bet might be to go visit the display homes and walk around in them, and take photos. Get a feel for it in person instead of deciding from the floor plan.
