Residential Sewer & Drainage Installation Services
Your home deserves long-term protection from water damage, sewer backups and failing pipes. Our residential drain installation and sewer line services are designed to safeguard your property, preserve landscaping, and increase resale value. We install new drain systems for construction projects, upgrade aging drainage systems, and perform full drain replacement when repairs aren’t feasible.
New Construction Drainage
Planning a new build? We design and install perimeter drains, downspout connections and properly sized sewer line hookups so your new drain infrastructure meets local codes from day one. Early coordination with your contractor prevents costly rework.
Drainage System Upgrades
Older homes often have deteriorated drain pipes, collapsed tiles or undersized lines. We assess the existing system, recommend targeted upgrades — such as larger drain pipes, catch basins, backwater valves or sump systems — and provide a transparent quote for repair or partial replacement.
Complete System Replacement
When a system is beyond repair — multiple blockages, repeated clogging, root intrusion, or collapsed sewer lines — we perform full drain replacement using durable materials and trenching or trenchless methods where appropriate to minimize disruption.
Proper drainage isn’t just about preventing floods—it’s about protecting your home’s foundation, preventing mold growth, and maintaining your property value for years to come.
Benefits of Professional Residential Drainage Installation
Typical residential timelines vary with scope: a targeted drain installation or repair often completes in 1–3 days, while a full drain replacement may take several days. Costs depend on pipe material, site access, and whether trenchless methods are used — contact us for a tailored estimate. We also offer maintenance packages to keep your drainage systems, pipes and sump pumps running reliably season after season.

We install scalable drainage systems for retail centers, office buildings and multi‑unit complexes that manage surface and subsurface water, protect foundations, and minimize ongoing service needs.

For industrial sites we provide heavy‑duty drain lines, oil/grit interceptors and specialized discharge routing to handle higher flow and non‑standard waste streams. We coordinate permits and disposal requirements to keep your facility compliant.
Parking Lot & Exterior Drainage
Effective exterior drainage prevents standing water and trip hazards in high‑traffic areas. We design catch basins, trench drains and surface flow systems that direct water away from entrances and protect pavement and landscaping.

Essential Components of a Quality Drainage System
A properly designed sewer and drainage system combines multiple components — each with a specific role — to control water flow, prevent backups and protect your property. At Lord Mechanical LTD we specify durable materials and properly sized drain pipe and sewer connections so your system performs reliably for years.
Perimeter Drainage
Perimeter drains (also called footing drains) collect groundwater around your foundation and move it into a drain pipe or sump system to prevent basement flooding and foundation damage. Maintenance tip: inspect for sediment buildup annually and clear surface water that pools near your foundation.
Sewer Line Connections
Proper sewer line connections to the municipal sewer system ensure efficient waste removal and reduce the risk of backups. We size sewer lines and select appropriate pipe materials for expected flow, and we handle municipal connection requirements and inspections.
Catch Basins & Drain Tiles
Catch basins and drain tiles collect surface run‑off and channel it away from buildings and paved areas. These components protect landscaping and hardscaping by preventing erosion; routine cleaning of grates and sediment removal keeps them functioning optimally.
Backwater Valves
Backwater valves protect your home from municipal sewer backups during heavy rain or system overloads. They are essential in flood‑prone neighbourhoods; test the valve annually and after major storms to ensure it operates correctly.
Sump Pumps & Pits
Sump pumps and pits remove collected groundwater when high water tables or heavy rains overwhelm passive drainage. Expect typical sump pump life of 7–10 years; we recommend annual testing and a backup power option for critical locations.
Downspout Connections
Connecting roof downspouts into your overall drainage system keeps rainwater away from the foundation and reduces surface erosion. Use properly sized pipes and ensure downspout outlets tie into catch basins or underground drain pipe to avoid surface pooling.
Quick maintenance checklist: clear leaves from grates and gutters in fall, inspect sump pumps before winter, schedule video sewer line inspections every 3–5 years, and address small clogs early to prevent larger drain sewer or pipe failures. Proper maintenance extends the life of your drainage system and reduces costly repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sewer & Drainage Installations
How do I know if my property needs a new drainage system?
Typical signs you may need a new drainage system include standing water in your yard, water seeping into the basement, recurring clogs or blockages, foundation cracks, or mold and mildew growth. If you see any of these problems, our team can perform a site assessment to identify the root cause and recommend repair, replacement or targeted upgrades.
How long does a typical drainage installation take?
Estimated time depends on scope: targeted repairs or drain installation work often complete in 1–3 days; a full residential replacement typically takes about 3–5 days; larger commercial projects or complex sewer line work can take 1–2 weeks. During your consultation we’ll provide a specific timeline for your property.
Will my yard be destroyed during drainage installation?
Some excavation is usually required, but we use targeted excavation and, where appropriate, trenchless techniques to minimise surface disruption. We restore landscaping and hardscaping after work is complete and discuss the expected impact during the initial assessment so you know what to expect.
Do I need permits for drainage installation in North Vancouver?
Yes — most drainage and sewer connection projects require permits in North Vancouver, West Vancouver and Vancouver. As part of our installation services we prepare and submit permit applications and coordinate inspections to ensure work complies with local regulations.
How much does a drainage system installation cost?
Costs vary based on property size, access, materials, whether a full replacement or repair is required, and any required sewer line connections. We provide transparent, written quotes after an assessment so you understand options and pricing. Contact us to arrange a site visit for a personalised estimate.
How long should a properly installed drainage system last?
With quality materials and professional installation, a typical drainage system can last an estimated 25–40 years. Regular maintenance — such as clearing catch basins, testing sump pumps and scheduling video inspections of sewer lines every 3–5 years — helps extend system life and avoid unexpected replacements.
What if I have an emergency sewer or drain issue?
We offer emergency response for urgent plumbing issues and sewer problems that threaten your property. Call our team and we’ll prioritise the situation, diagnose the problem, and implement immediate measures to limit damage before scheduling any necessary repair or replacement work.
