Replacing aging driveways and walls in Bedminster
Bedminster is a long-established community, and in older neighborhoods the driveways, retaining walls, and drainage that went in decades ago are wearing out. A big part of what we do here is tearing out cracked, failing work and rebuilding it to last, often on tight lots where access takes real care.
We also do a fair amount of site work where older properties are being rebuilt or expanded. That is a big part of what we do here, but it is far from the only thing. We still handle sewer and water lines, septic, grading, driveways, and emergency digs across town.

Somerset County is denser and more suburban, which brings more sewer and water line work, underground utilities, and hardscaping on established properties.
As a township, Bedminster has the kind of larger properties where septic systems, grading, drainage, land clearing, and long driveways come up most. Whether it is an emergency sewer or water line dig-out, a septic system, a lot that will not drain, or a new driveway, we bring our own equipment and an operator who knows the ground in this part of Somerset County. We show up when we say we will, and we leave your property graded and clean.

What tends to be in the ground in Bedminster
Most of Bedminster went up in the 1980s, across roughly 4,343 housing units.
A smaller share, around 12%, falls in the 1940s-to-early-70s Orangeburg era, so it turns up on some streets and not others.
Housing-age figures: US Census American Community Survey 2019–2023 5-year estimates, table B25034. Pipe service lives are documented industry figures. What is actually under any one property varies, so we confirm it on site before we quote a replacement.
Bedminster is split between public water and private wells
About 39.7% of Bedminster’s land area sits inside a public water purveyor’s delivery area, shared between 2 different systems. The largest is NJ American Water - Short Hills, then NJ American Water - Raritan. Outside those pockets most properties are on a well, sometimes their own and sometimes one shared with neighbors, and the three situations are different jobs with different rules. Which one you are in is the first thing to settle, and your bill settles it faster than any map.

NJDEP maps actual delivery areas for public community systems, meaning fifteen or more year-round connections; smaller shared and association systems are real but do not appear. Percentages are share of land area, not share of homes, and a state file can lag a change of ownership. The name on your bill beats any map, including this one.
The part that changes the job here
Only about 6% of Bedminster's land is mapped inside a sewer service area. Environmental Disposal Corp, which NJDEP lists as a sewer facility in the township, merged into New Jersey American Water on December 31, 2023, so that sewer system now belongs to the same private company that supplies water in Bedminster.
Sewer in Bedminster is a pocket, not a network
About 6.2% of Bedminster’s land area falls inside a mapped sewer service area. The largest share goes to Environmental Disposal Corporation WTP, with 2 smaller works alongside it. A service area is where sewer is planned and permitted, not a promise that a main runs past your house, so the only way to settle it for one address is to look. Outside it, septic.
Sewer connections, laterals and septic work are all things we do, and which one you need is usually settled in one phone call. Sewer and water line work.
