Sewer and Water Lines

Advice: Recently found out that hard way that to get sewer lines and water lines can be a really big expense for a new construction, even if the lines run up to the lot. Is there any way to analyse this issue before construction begins ( or before i close on the land) ?

Are the water & sewer mains run to the property & you just need to run service lines? Or do you have to extend the mains?

A civil engineering firm can do a feasibility study prior to locking down the property. The study would show utility locations and connection fees. You can also contact the individual utilities yourself.
