In Parker, sewer service usually comes from Parker Water and Sanitation District, a special district separate from the Town, while The Pinery is served by Pinery Water and Wastewater District. The pipe from your house to the district main is private plumbing that a plumber repairs. Call the number on this page to be connected with a local plumber in Parker.
What to expect when you call
You'll be connected with an independent local plumber who serves Parker and the surrounding part of Douglas County. Let them know which drains are affected, whether water is on the floor and which district bills you for sewer. The plumber typically clears the blockage, runs a camera to find the defect and its depth, and then explains repair options. If the camera shows the problem is in the district's main, you'll be pointed to the district. If it's in your lateral, the plumber can lay out the choices, from a single spot repair to lining the pipe or replacing the run, and explain how much digging each involves and how long the house may be without full use of its drains.
What affects cost
- Length and depth of the lateral
- Driveways, patios, sprinkler systems or trees over the pipe
- Repair approach after the camera inspection
- Permit from the Town of Parker, or Douglas County in unincorporated areas
- Restoring landscaping and hardscape
Local conditions in Parker
Parker is a fast-growing Douglas County town southeast of Denver along Cherry Creek and Parker Road. Parker Water and Sanitation District (PWSD) is a water and wastewater utility, unaffiliated with the Town, and its North Water Reclamation Facility treats wastewater and discharges to Cherry Creek. Pinery Water and Wastewater District provides sanitary sewer in The Pinery. Not every Parker resident is inside PWSD; the Parker Chronicle reports Stroh and Hess Ranch are outside its boundaries. Your bill shows your provider, and PWSD's office is 303-841-4627.
The Town of Parker Building Division handles permits and inspections in town and says plumbing alterations require permits, with applications through eTRAKiT (303-841-0353). Douglas County's Building Division covers unincorporated areas such as The Pinery and Stonegate. Much of Parker's housing is newer, so plastic laterals are common; settling, separated joints and damage from later landscaping or sprinkler work are typical causes of failure.
Checklist before the plumber arrives
- Stop water use throughout the house
- Find the cleanout and make it reachable
- Know your sewer district from your bill
- Mark sprinkler zones near the sewer route if you can
- Let your HOA know if the work may reach common areas
