Upcoming Water Service Line Inspections

In the coming weeks, a two-person Arcadis inspection team will conduct in-home service line inspections at select Manchester residences. Team members will carry identification badges and wear Arcadis-branded safety vests. If your property is selected for inspection, you will receive a door hanger notice in advance. Please call 860-647-6050 with any questions or concerns.

Permit Processing Times

Due to staffing shortages in the Building Inspection Division, permit processing and inspection scheduling may be delayed. To monitor your permit status, visit the Online Permit Portal or call 860-647-3052. We appreciate your patience and apologize for any inconvenience.
