Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
We are at the point where we need to tap into the 8 inch sewer line in the alley right of way (dirt) in the back of our new house build.
We have everything done to the cleanout just outside our house (4 inch schedule 40 pvc). I had a local construction company come over, one that does all sorts of work for our city and local homeowners for 30+ years.
I got a quote of about $4000 for them to trench from the house to the sewer line (which is about 6 feet deep) and lay that pipe (around 40 feet of pipe) and do the saddle connection.
Seems expensive, but then again, it isn't something I am really wanting to do. Does the price seem high? I do have an excavator but they wanted to bring their own and pretty much do all the work, which I get.
Pro tip, don't build your own home, it will cost 2x as much as buying one.
