Get help with your sewer lateral

Tell us what you need and where the property is. A person at Baysix Media reads every request and follows up about next steps.

Your request

Two short steps. Each field says whether it is required.

  • A person at Baysix Media reads every request.
  • Your details go to a contractor only if you tick the referral box.
  • The City does not recommend plumbers or contractors. Check any contractor's license before you hire.

The request form opens soon

It isn't taking requests yet, so nothing can get lost. Until it opens: check any contractor's license before you hire, and if you're planning a full replacement, apply for City cost sharing before work starts.

What happens after you send it

  1. Step 1: Tell us what you need

    Inspection, a failed report, or a replacement, plus your timeline.

  2. Step 2: We review it personally

    Sewer Lateral Help is run by Baysix Media. A person reads every request.

  3. Step 3: We follow up with next steps

    Including how to find and vet licensed contractors. We don't have contractor partners yet, and we'll say so plainly when that changes.
