Angier's local setup

Angier is the "Town of Crepe Myrtles," a small northern Harnett County town at the crossroads of NC 55 (Raleigh Street) and NC 210 (Depot Street), with a small part reaching into Wake. It has an older core, about 31% of homes built before 1980, which is a larger share than nearby Holly Springs or Fuquay-Varina, plus newer growth since 2000. Commercial buildings along Raleigh and Depot streets and out on US 401 reflect both eras.

The Town of Angier buys its water from Harnett Regional Water, which treats Cape Fear River water at its Lillington plant and disinfects with chloramine. Angier runs its own sewer collection, and Harnett County provides bulk wastewater treatment.

Under the Town's Water Quality Protection / Backflow Ordinance, most residential customers have a dual check valve in the meter box, while higher-risk services need testable assemblies. That usually includes many commercial properties. Testing and maintenance are the customer's responsibility, and since February 1, 2019, test reports go to BSI (Backflow Solutions Inc.) by the date on the Town's notice, not to the Town. The ordinance page doesn't state a testing interval, so follow the date on your notice.

What moves the price

• How many fixtures or units are affected. One sink or a building-wide drain.
• Building age. Older lines in the downtown core may need a camera look before repairs.
• Hours. Work done before opening or after close usually costs more.
• Parts and equipment. Testable backflow assemblies and commercial water heaters cost more than residential parts.
