Replacing aging driveways and walls in Wayne
Wayne 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.

The Passaic County highlands are rocky and wooded, with lake communities and plenty of septic and drainage work. Steep, tricky ground is where an experienced operator earns their keep.
As a township, Wayne 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 Passaic 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 Wayne
The biggest single stretch of building in Wayne came in the 1960s, though the township's 19,396 housing units are spread fairly wide across the decades.
The bigger issue here is the 55% 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.
Nearly all of Wayne is on public water
About 99.9% of Wayne’s land area sits inside a public water purveyor’s delivery area, all of it served by Township of Wayne. Sewer coverage tracks it closely, about 94.1% of the town, so most properties here are either on both or on neither. All of this is land area rather than houses, and a main running past a property does not mean the property is on it, since plenty kept the well after the main went in.

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
Wayne runs its own water and sewer, and says in plain terms where the line changes hands: the service line from the curb valve to the house is owned and maintained by the property owner. Sewage goes to the township's own 13.5 million gallon per day Mountain View plant on Dey Road, not to PVSC.
Most of Wayne is inside a sewer service area
About 94.1% of Wayne’s land area falls inside a mapped sewer service area. The largest share goes to Mountain View STP, 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.
