West Jordan Water & Sewer Line Specialists
West Jordan City delivers culinary water and the City Engineering Department oversees the sewer collection system, with Jordan Basin Improvement District serving parts of the south and west. Which one your address falls under changes the paperwork, and we sort that out before we dig.
The bulk of West Jordan went in between 1980 and 2010, which puts neighborhoods like Copper Hills, Ivory Highlands and the Sycamores squarely in the window where original service lines start to fail — not from age alone, but from soil movement and pressure. Ground here is alluvial sand and gravel, and lots near the Jordan River corridor can sit over a high water table, which matters once a trench gets deep. The city's frost depth requirement for water lines is 30 inches, so most service lines are buried at least that far down and often deeper. Work in the street or the parkstrip requires a Public Right-of-Way Encroachment Permit, and a sewer connection requires a Sanitary Sewer Service Connection Permit, both through West Jordan Engineering.
