Our Process

How the site servicing contractor work process works

  1. 1. Initial contact and request for quote. A site servicing contractor work quote request provides the address, intended result, dates, and available information needed to verify downstream and pressure connection points.
  2. 2. Drawings, site review, and scope confirmation. Harrowgate reviews the site servicing contractor work documents and site to verify limits, elevations, existing work, and where Site Servicing affects the need to coordinate all underground crossings before production.
  3. 3. Detailed quote and clear assumptions. Harrowgate's written site servicing contractor work scope covers limits, sequence, access, restoration, and assumptions affecting the ability to protect live access and temporary services.
  4. 4. Engineering, consultant, and municipal coordination. Before site servicing contractor work starts, Harrowgate coordinates drawings, approvals, and hold points with structural and civil engineers, architects, consultants, utilities, and the applicable municipality.
  5. 5. Mobilization and site execution. After release, Harrowgate mobilizes controls, equipment, materials, and access for site servicing contractor work, then works to stage inspections and testing before concealment beside Watermain Installation.
  6. 6. Inspection, testing, and documentation. Inspection and testing for site servicing contractor work use timely reports, tickets, measurements, photographs, and results to match trench backfill to the finished surface.
  7. 7. Closeout and handover. At site servicing contractor work closeout, Harrowgate resolves deficiencies and provides records confirming the project can close survey, commissioning, and restoration records. See the Vaughan service-area hub for site servicing contractor work coverage.

Why Us

Why choose Harrowgate for site servicing contractor work

Harrowgate's 20 years in business has shown that successful site servicing contractor work depends on decisions made before production starts. The project is organized around the need to verify downstream and pressure connection points, the right time to coordinate all underground crossings before production, and a clear record of any field change.

Rather than leaving site servicing contractor work coordination between separate contacts, Harrowgate maintains one accountable team for the client. Structural and civil engineers, architects, consultants, utilities, and municipalities receive the questions needed to match trench backfill to the finished surface, including those affecting Sanitary Sewer Installation and Storm Sewer Installation.

For site servicing contractor work, the written scope also explains the controls and assumptions required to protect live access and temporary services.

Harrowgate Group and every trade partner on the project is fully licensed, insured, and WSIB-covered.

Harrowgate prices site servicing contractor work from reviewed information, states assumptions clearly, and reports material changes before they are concealed. To discuss a scope that needs to close survey, commissioning, and restoration records, send the available documents or call (416) 629-0721.

Understanding site servicing contractor

Which site servicing method is used? by Harrowgate Group

Which site servicing method is used?

Open-cut installation is the standard where the corridor can be excavated safely, while trenchless methods reduce surface disruption at roads, rail, waterways, or congested crossings. Service selection also covers pipe material, joint system, bedding, restraint, corrosion protection, temporary bypass, and connection method based on municipal standards and issued design.

Open-cut sewer and watermain installation. Trenches expose the full alignment for bedding, pipe, fittings, valves, chambers, services, and visual inspection. This method gives direct grade control but requires utility clearance, soil classification, shoring or sloping, groundwater control, traffic staging, and engineered restoration.

Trenchless crossings. Horizontal directional drilling, auger boring, pipe ramming, microtunnelling, and pipe jacking solve different ground, accuracy, diameter, and carrier-pipe conditions. Entry and exit shafts still need space and support. The selected method must protect existing utilities and achieve the required line and grade, especially for gravity sewers.

Live connections and temporary service. Tie-ins may use shutdowns, cut-ins, wet taps, line stops, temporary water, or sewer bypass pumping under the authority's accepted procedure. Connection planning identifies valves, customers, sampling, disinfection, contingency, and the maximum interruption window before excavation exposes the main.

Gravity sewers. Sanitary and storm pipe depend on surveyed invert, uniform bedding, sealed joints, access structures, and tested connections. Small grade errors accumulate over long runs. Installation proceeds from a known downstream point where practical so every upstream elevation can be checked against the outlet.

Pressure systems. Watermains and fire mains require restrained fittings or designed thrust resistance, tracer wire where specified, valves, hydrants, corrosion protection, hydrostatic testing, flushing, and disinfection. Passing a pressure test does not replace bacteriological acceptance for potable water.

What is Harrowgate's site servicing process? by Harrowgate Group

What is Harrowgate's site servicing process?

Step 1, release the approved information. Harrowgate checks civil drawings, profiles, municipal details, geotechnical and environmental reports, connection permits, utility records, easements, road-occupancy conditions, traffic plans, testing, and commissioning requirements. Conflicts between plan, profile, and details are resolved before procurement.

Step 2, survey and daylight conflicts. Baseline control, property limits, road elevations, existing inverts, and connection points are verified. Utility locates are supplemented by potholing or hydro excavation at crossings. A utility shown on a drawing is not treated as physically confirmed until its position is exposed where risk requires it.

Step 3, prepare excavation, support, and water control. Soil type, depth, adjacent loads, traffic, structures, and groundwater determine sloping, trench boxes, hydraulic shoring, sheeting, or an engineered support system. Spoil and equipment are kept clear of trench limits. Dewatering or bypass systems maintain a stable base and protect downstream water quality.

Step 4, install pipe and structures to survey control. Bedding is trimmed, pipe barrels receive uniform support, joints are cleaned and assembled, and fittings or maintenance structures are placed without forcing alignment. Grade is checked frequently. Watermain restraint, thrust details, valves, hydrants, services, tracer wire, and corrosion components are installed with the pipe.

Step 5, inspect, test, and accept before concealment. Sewer work can require leakage testing, deflection testing, flushing, and CCTV. Watermain work includes thrust restraint completion, pressure and leakage testing, flushing, disinfection, sampling, and connection authorization under municipal procedures. Failed results are diagnosed and corrected, not explained away by backfill.

Step 6, backfill and restore in lifts. Embedment supports the pipe haunches and protects the crown. Approved trench backfill is placed and compacted to the specification, with special attention beside structures and at utility crossings. Granular road base, asphalt, concrete, boulevard, and landscaping are restored to permit conditions.

Step 7, deliver usable records. Harrowgate records pipe, fitting, valve, hydrant, service, and structure positions and elevations while they remain accessible. Test forms, bacteriological results, CCTV, material records, approved changes, and as-built survey are organized for municipal assumption, owner operations, and future utility locating.

FAQ

Site Servicing Contractor FAQ

How do I choose a site servicing contractor for a development?

Choose a contractor that can read the complete utility plan, verify connection points and crossings, control safe excavation, and carry each system through inspection, testing, restoration, and as-built records. The proposal should state limits, assumptions, hold points, and responsibility for temporary services.

What does Harrowgate need to quote site servicing?

Send current civil plans and profiles, composite utility drawings, geotechnical and environmental reports, municipal or utility comments, connection information, traffic and access restrictions, testing requirements, project phasing, and milestone dates. Missing information should be identified as an assumption rather than silently priced as fact.

Can site servicing be phased with building construction?

Yes. Temporary roads, building connections, crane pads, foundations, permanent roads, and service commissioning can be sequenced by zone. Installed infrastructure needs protection from heavy traffic, sediment, freezing, and unapproved use until the relevant system is accepted.

How are watermains tested and accepted?

The approved procedure can include filling, air removal, stabilization, pressure and leakage testing, flushing, disinfection, neutralization, sampling, valve operation, and authorized connection. Exact acceptance steps follow the issued project and applicable local municipal requirements.

Who coordinates permits and inspections for site servicing?

The contract and project structure determine responsibility. Harrowgate coordinates its field work, notices, access, hold points, and records with the owner, designer, utility owners, and applicable inspectors without claiming that one municipal process applies everywhere.

What as-built records are provided after servicing is complete?

Typical records identify pipe, service, valve, hydrant, fitting, and structure locations and elevations, along with material information, field changes, tests, samples, CCTV where specified, compaction results, connection records, and restoration status.

What happens if an unmarked utility is found?

Work stops in the affected area, the utility is protected, and its ownership, status, and location are investigated. Any change to clearance, alignment, support, or connection is coordinated with the responsible parties before excavation resumes.

What is the difference between a sanitary sewer and a storm sewer?

A sanitary sewer conveys wastewater to the sanitary collection system. A storm sewer conveys runoff to an approved storm outlet or management facility. Their pipe routes, structures, service connections, testing, and discharge controls must remain distinct.

Why are sewer inverts surveyed before backfill?

Gravity capacity depends on the elevation at the inside bottom of the pipe. Survey before concealment identifies a flat or reversed reach, structure mismatch, or crossing error while pipe and bedding can still be corrected.

When is trenchless servicing worth considering?

Trenchless work can reduce road, rail, watercourse, or operating-site disruption. Feasibility depends on soil and rock, groundwater, bore path, required accuracy, launch and receiving space, existing utilities, settlement tolerance, pipe material, and the ability to verify the completed installation.
