South Hamilton systems & permits

There is no sewer main to fail in South Hamilton, because Hamilton has none. The town's own stormwater plan states that 100 percent of properties are served by septic systems, so a slow or backing-up drain here is a tank, a line or a leach field — and anything structural runs through the Board of Health under Title 5. The storm drains are a completely separate system that discharges to the Miles River, which is already listed as impaired for fecal coliform, and Hamilton's illicit-discharge programme specifically treats septic systems over 30 years old as a suspect source.

Hamilton's IDDE Plan repeats that '100% of the Town is currently served by septic systems' and '100% of the properties within Hamilton are served by septic systems.' It ranks 'Density of aging septic systems — Septic systems 30 years or older in residential land use areas' as a screening factor, and notes the Town 'does not have this information readily available at this time.'

Table 1-1 of Hamilton's IDDE Plan lists the impaired waters applicable to the town: Miles River — Outlet Longham Reservoir, Beverly to confluence with Ipswich River (Segment MA92-03), impaired for Aquatic Macroinvertebrate Bioassessments, Fecal Coliform and Dissolved Oxygen; and Chebacco Lake — Hamilton/Essex (MA93014), impaired for non-native aquatic plants and mercury in fish tissue.

Hamilton operates a municipal separate storm sewer system under the EPA MS4 permit. Its IDDE Plan lists foundation drains, footing drains, air conditioning condensation, water from crawl space pumps, rising groundwater and uncontaminated groundwater infiltration among the categories of non-stormwater discharge allowed to enter the storm drain, and describes dye testing and smoke testing to find illicit connections.

Hamilton's Board of Health enforces Title 5 (310 CMR 15.00) plus a Local Septic System Regulation approved in April 2018, and publishes a Multicompartment Septic Tanks and DEP Approved Effluent Filter Policy, an Open Floor Plan / Room Count policy, required pumping record forms, bedroom-count deed restrictions for 2 through 5 bedrooms including a dedicated Asbury Grove version, and a septic betterment loan programme. The Septic Inspector is Greg Bernard, 978-626-5244.

I needed a sewer line replaced on my property in Lowell. The issue was a complicated one but Will came out to assess the problem and gave me a fair price (much cheaper than another company!). Then the team of Oscar, Bryan, Paul, Julio, Cesar, and others came out and banged out the job in one (long) day. They crushed it. Highly recommend.

We found a 75 year old sewer pipe starting to leak and crack at the joints. Spencer Home Services was extremely helpful in giving an estimate and getting it repaired quickly by a skilled plumber!

I Called Spencer yesterday with a sewer issue at my Clients home. They came out, assessed the job. Laid out all the options to the client. Had a price back in less than an hour. Client accepted the price, signed the contract, and the job was completed Today by 3:00. Professionals from the beginning and all the way through until the end.

I had an excellent experience with Spencer Home Services replacing my main water line — nearly 200 feet long! The crew worked efficiently and managed to finish everything within a single day, which was very impressive. The pricing was great, and the team went above and beyond with the cleanup and grading afterward — the yard looked neat and well-restored when they were done. Special thanks to Bryan Paul, Julio, Brian, Oscar, and Cesar for their professionalism, hard work, and attention to detail. I highly recommend Spencer Home Services for anyone looking for reliable and high-quality service! --------------- 7/16/26 Great company, actually stands by their warranty! Spencer Home Services put in a new main sewer line for me last August. Over the winter, the street patch settled a bit and started turning into a pothole. I called them up to see if they’d fix it under their warranty, and they were awesome about it. First, they sent someone out two weeks ago to run a camera down the whole pipe. They wanted to make sure the shifting dirt didn't cause any sagging or bellies underground, and they did the inspection with absolutely no pushback or extra fees. Once we confirmed the pipe was in perfect shape, they scheduled a crew to come back today to fix the road. They cut a clean square and put down a really solid, hot asphalt patch that's completely level with the street. It's rare to find a company that actually stands by their work and coordinates everything without a fight. Highly recommend them!

I had two projects done at my property. One was reline my sewer line and install a line for a basement half bathroom. The other was replacing my hot water storage tank. The worker quality was excellent, the only problem I had was finding the offices to pay off the work

I had 2 mini split systems installed in my townhome on the second and third floors. The work was done carefully and with good attention to details both outside and inside by Charles Barragan and John Sacharczyk. They provided thorough instruction with demonstrations on how to operate the systems with a remote regarding all modes, options etc . I am extremely pleased with the service from Spencer Home Service from estimate to completion. Charles and John provided  high quality work and were in a pleasure to work with.

We had our old cast iron/ceramic sewer pipe lined, and are very happy with the result! Oscar and Cesar were knowledgeable and friendly and were happy to show us what was going on as they were working on things. The quoting and scheduling process were straightforward too and everyone at Spencer home services was very responsive.

I couldn’t be more grateful for the team from Spencer who came out after Monday’s blizzard to complete our CIPP sewer line repair. Oscar, Cesar, Chuck, and Bryan (who plowed out the driveway) were outstanding from start to finish! They addressed a sewer line with multiple root intrusions that had been causing blockages, as well as a cavity in the old cast iron pipe that was allowing runoff to leak back through the foundation and into the house. The team thoroughly prepped the line by clearing the roots and descaling the pipe. Once done, they shot the new pipe in and cured it so that we have a single continuous sewer line pipe to the city main. They also removed the aging cast iron wye connection and replaced it with a new PVC fitting. Throughout the entire process, they were incredibly kind, patient, and professional. I asked a lot of questions, and they were happy to walk me through everything - from the materials being used, to how measurements are taken, how the resin is applied, and how the curing process works. I truly appreciated the education and transparency. I now have a much better understanding of my home’s sewer system and the work that was done. They were also very respectful of our home, keeping the work areas clean and carefully protecting our light-colored carpet with drop cloths. After the work was done, they cleaned up everything and it was almost like they weren't here at all. They treated our home like it was their own. Also, thank you as well to Rich, who came out on Saturday to assess the situation and scope the line, and to Angel and the front office staff who answered my questions over the weekend on timing for the job and if a plow would be possible. Every person I spoke with was friendly, responsive, and understanding. An exceptional team and an excellent experience all around - highly recommend!

Drain & Sewer FAQs in South Hamilton

What is trenchless sewer repair and how does it work?

Trenchless sewer repair uses advanced technology to fix or replace damaged sewer lines without digging up your yard, driveway, or landscaping. Spencer Home Services offers two primary methods: CIPP lining (inserting a resin-coated liner that cures inside your existing pipe) and pipe bursting (breaking the old pipe while pulling a new one through). Both methods require only 1-2 small access points instead of a full trench. Most repairs are completed in a single day.
