Signs You Need Water Line Repair
Your water line will show signs that something isn’t right. It’s important to pay close attention to these warnings. Some are subtle, while others are obvious, but they all indicate the need for prompt action. Some of the most common signs you may notice include:
- Water discoloration: Discolored water is often the result of corrosion or because of a crack in the pipe that allows dirt and other debris into the water.
- Rising water bills: If your water usage is going up without any change to habits or people in the home, you may have a hidden leak.
- Sound of running water: If all taps, faucets, and appliances are shut off and you hear running water, it indicates a leak in your water line.
- Loss of water pressure: Leaks can cause a considerable loss of water pressure.
- Muddy patches in the lawn: If you have muddy or lush spots in the landscape that stand out, it may be because of a leak in your water line.
Main Water Line Replacement
There are times when water line repair won’t resolve the problem. When water line replacement is necessary, we’ll ensure the job is done quickly and to the highest quality standards. While most problems can be repaired, extensively damaged pipes should always be replaced.
When replacing your main water line, we’ll carefully excavate the line in a manner that minimizes disruption to your home and landscape. Our technicians will replace the pipes, test all connections, and bury the line immediately.

Water Line FAQs
How long will my main water line last?
They’re designed to be durable, and most will last 70+ years. However, longevity depends on the quality of the pipes, the quality of the installation, soil conditions, weather, and many other factors.
Do I need a permit to install or replace a water line?
You may. We’ll help you determine whether a permit is necessary and help process the required paperwork to secure any necessary permits.
What types of pipes are used for main water lines?
We can use copper pipes, PVC, or PEX, depending on your preference and needs.
Isn’t the main water line the city’s responsibility?
Any break that occurs outside the property line is usually the responsibility of the utility provider or city. However, anything on your side of the property line is the homeowner’s responsibility.
