West Valley City Water & Sewer Line Specialists
West Valley City is the most fragmented utility map on the Wasatch Front. Granger-Hunter Improvement District serves most of the city for both water and sewer, with pockets served by Kearns Improvement District, Magna Water District and Taylorsville-Bennion Improvement District. Street permits come from city Engineering.
Most of West Valley City's housing dates from the 1970s through the 1990s, so service lines here are commonly thirty to fifty years old. The city's own code documents critically expansive soils and high water tables within its boundaries, and both of those are direct causes of pipe failure: expansive soil cycles with moisture and loads the pipe, while a high water table turns a deep trench into a pumping job. Valley frost depth is roughly 30 to 36 inches with service lines generally four to five feet down. A Right-of-Way Permit is issued by the West Valley City Engineering Division.
