Overland is a large new-home community in Eagle Mountain built by Ivory Homes. Plumbing calls here often come from new owners who want a fixture added, a water treatment system installed or a water heater upgraded. Call (385) 488-1892 and give dispatch your street.
Overland is still growing, so streets and phases change from year to year, and anything we could not confirm is labeled below.
What we could confirm about Overland
These points come from the city master development record and the builder's own community listing.
- Overland sits on the western side of the Lake Mountains in Eagle Mountain, according to builder materials.
- The builder describes it as a community planned for more than 3,000 homes, and a city master development agreement covers it.
- Builder listings place it near Cedar Valley High School, Frontier Middle School and Hidden Hollow Elementary.
- Builder listings show several home collections, including Gardens, Cottages and Towns, so street layouts and ages vary by phase.
New construction plumbing, handled in order
A new house arrives with builder-selected fixtures and a basic water heater. Many owners later add a water softener, upgrade a faucet, install a second sink or swap the tank for a tankless unit. Each of those is a plumbing job that may need a permit.
Our plumbing installation page covers fixture and line work. Ask the Eagle Mountain Building Department at 801-789-6614 whether your job needs a permit, because the city permit sheet lists water heaters and new or relocated fixtures.
Tank or tankless for a new Overland home
Neither is better for every house. The choice depends on how much hot water you use at once and what the home is set up for.
Tank water heater
- Lower purchase cost at the start
- Stores hot water, so a long shower can run it out
- Needs floor space and a safe drain path
- See water heater installation
Tankless water heater
- Heats water as it flows
- Needs correct gas and venting for the unit
- Needs periodic descaling to keep working
- See tankless water heaters

- Call 811 before any digging for outdoor lines
- Photograph existing pipe so the plumber sees what you have
What we do not know about Overland
We could not confirm which phases are finished, which streets are occupied or what pipe material the builder used. Builder pages show plan sizes and floor plans but say nothing about plumbing specifications. Your plumber reads the real pipe on site, and your builder can share the plumbing plan for your lot.

Questions from Overland homeowners
Do you serve the Overland community?
Dispatch covers Eagle Mountain, and Overland addresses are included. Call (385) 488-1892, give your street and phase name, and we confirm before sending anyone.
Can I install a water softener in a new house?
Usually yes, but the layout matters. Read the water softener page, test your tap, and check warranty terms and permit needs first.
Should I replace the builder water heater?
Only when it fails or no longer meets your hot water needs. A newer tank rarely needs replacing, and a plumber can check it first.
Who approves plumbing permits here?
Contact the Eagle Mountain Building Department, 3267 E Campus Dr, Suite H, or call 801-789-6614. Describe your project and they tell you what applies.
How do I confirm a plumber's license?
The state Verify a License lookup shows license class and status once you enter the plumber's name. Ask for the number before work starts.
