How to lower sewer outlet?

[Ally3]

Hi, I have recently moved into a new build and this is in my front lawn. I believe it is something to do with the sewer. Can I lower this to ground level? If so, how or do I need to get a plumber to do it?

Hi @Ally3,

I am reasonably confident that this is a sewer inspection point. I am not aware of any reason it couldn't be lowered to ground level, but I am also not a plumber. It would be best to check with a plumber first to see if it is possible.

Assuming it is possible, any alterations to your home's sewer system will need to be conducted by a licensed plumber.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
