Sanitary Sewers

The Town looks after the sewer mains and service lines from the road to the property line only unless there is a registered easement crossing private property. You are responsible for the sewer lateral between your house and the property line.

If you have water or sewage backing up in your drains, please call the Public Works Department (705-746-2101) or if after hours please call 705-773-8958, please note that a service charge may apply for all after hour call outs if the issue is deemed to be on private property. Staff will check the sewer main on the street to see if it is running free. If the main is not blocked you will be advised to call a plumber. Staff does not perform work on private property.

The Town of Parry Sound will publish Wastewater Bypass & Overflow notifications to inform the Public. To view these  notifications, please visit the Wastewater Bypass and Notification webpage.
