Other fees

  • If there is a sewer blockage, repair or pump system fault not caused by Factor UTB’s system, service fees may apply.

Getting connected

If you are not connected

If your property can connect to our network but isn’t connected, you’ll still be charged a rating on abuttal fees.

This reflects the availability of the service, should you or future owners wish to connect.

Connections

If you are building or developing, you or your plumber must apply to Factor UTB for connection approval. A connection fee and inspection will be required. Council approvals alone do not authorise connection to our network.
