We do a lot of Brightspeed fiber construction around Lebanon Township
A significant part of our work in Lebanon Township is underground construction for Brightspeed's fiber internet network. Brightspeed has been rolling fiber out fast across Hunterdon and Somerset County, already reaching tens of thousands of homes and businesses, and putting that network in the ground is exactly the underground utility work we specialize in.
We take care of the trenching, conduit, directional boring, and cleanup so the build moves and the properties get restored right. 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.

Hunterdon County is rural and agricultural, heavy on well and septic systems, stone, and long private drives. It is exactly the kind of ground our equipment is built for.
As a township, Lebanon Township 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 Hunterdon 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 Lebanon Township
The biggest single stretch of building in Lebanon Township came in the 1970s, though the township's 2,528 housing units are spread fairly wide across the decades.
About 16% predates 1940, so there is a real pocket of clay and galvanized service in Lebanon Township sitting alongside much newer stock.
The bigger issue here is the 40% built between 1940 and the early 1970s. Orangeburg pipe was rated fifty years and routinely goes oval and collapses closer to thirty, so in a township weighted this heavily toward that window it is less a question of if than which street.
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.
Most of Lebanon Township is on a private well
About 2% of Lebanon Township’s land area sits inside a public water purveyor’s delivery area, shared between 3 different systems. The largest is Senator G.W. Hagedorn Psyciatric Hospital, then Aqua NJ - Bunnvale. 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.

Source: NJDEP Purveyor Service Areas of New Jersey, edition 2025-07-03, measured against US Census municipal boundaries. 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.
Lebanon Township is septic country
NJDEP maps no sewer service area anywhere in Lebanon Township, so the working assumption on any property here is a septic system, and the disposal field and the ground it sits in are the job rather than a connection. That is a planning map rather than a survey, so it is not proof that no small local collection system exists anywhere in the township. What it does mean is that there is no planned municipal sewer to tap.
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.
