Plan in advance - Residential service requests may take up to six weeks to complete. Commercial or industrial requests may take longer. Availability of service, the acquisition of road opening permits, and municipal inspections may cause time frames to vary. Submit your completed applications as early as possible, as they are processed in the order they are received. Call to speak with a Construction Inquiry representative if you need guidance.
