Frequently Asked Questions

Licenses may be applied for at any town or City Clerk's Office. As it does take approximately half an hour to process the license we ask that you come in no later than 4 p.m. whenever possible.

The City of Concord can be hired for the new construction of sewer line from the sewer main up to the property line, or you can hire a contractor to put the whole service in. The City of Concord requires a full deposit of the estimate before work can begin. Additional costs will apply for inspection and sewer investment fees. Inspection fees can be obtained from the Engineering Services Division at 603-225-8520, while the sewer investment fees can be obtained by calling the Utility Billing Office at 603-225-8694.

Call Concord General Services at 603-228-2737 and ask for the Sewer Systems Supervisor to check past City records to determine if there is a history of problems with the sewer service in that location. If there is a past history of issues on City property, our crew will investigate. If the issue is on private property, a plumber must be called. An accessible clean-out is necessary for our equipment to get into the sewer line, otherwise a plumber will have to be called to open the line in the basement. Our sewer crew will not alter plumbing on private property.
