Water main and sewer line installation, replacement, and repair for new construction and infrastructure projects.
Backwell installs water mains, sewer lines, and associated infrastructure for new construction and replacement projects. Our excavators and crews handle mainline installation, service connections, manholes, hydrants, and all associated earthwork. We work with municipalities, developers, and general contractors on projects ranging from single residential connections to subdivision-wide utility infrastructure.
Commercial projects in New York increasingly require more than dirt work. Backwell operates on Davis-Bacon prevailing wage rates under NYS Labor Law, is apprenticeship program compliant under the IRA framework that governs solar and clean energy tax credits, staffs its own CPESC-certified environmental professionals with current NYS Erosion and Sediment Control Inspector certifications, handles full SWPPP execution under NYSDEC construction general permits, and has experience working under ORES Article VIII conditions on utility-scale projects. We run certified payroll under 29 CFR Part 3 and 5 on qualifying jobs, document apprenticeship hours under 26 CFR 1.45-7, and handle the paperwork side of commercial construction as thoroughly as we handle the earthwork. For developers, GCs, and solar EPC firms who need a civil contractor that understands the compliance framework, not just how to operate an excavator, that is the Backwell difference.
Backwell provides water & sewer installation services across Oswego, Oneida, Madison, Cayuga, Seneca, Wayne, Cortland, and Onondaga counties. Based in Constantia, we mobilize quickly to job sites throughout the region.
Backwell is part of a New York family of service companies. When a commercial site needs ongoing property management after construction, our sister company RenPro Property Management handles leasing, rent collection, and maintenance across 100+ properties in Syracuse, Oswego, Auburn, and Utica.
