Private Sewer Rehabilitation Programme

Overview

The private sewers are owned by the private premises' owners. These owners are responsible for maintaining the private sewers.

Used water from private premises such as condominiums, commercial and industrial buildings is sent to public sewers through the private sewer network.

What you can do as a private premise's owner
1. Check your private sewers regularly

You can engage a contractor to check if your private sewers are leak-free and properly connected to the public sewer. This can be done by carrying out a leak test or other means. 

2. Repair any leaks
You should carry out the necessary repairs, if any leaks are found in your private sewers.  You can engage a contractor or contact PUB for assistance.
