When your main water line fails, you'll notice: low pressure throughout the house, a puddle in the yard with no obvious source, or a much higher water bill. We locate the break and repair or replace the line with as little disruption to your property as possible.

Common Issues
Signs of a Failing Water Line
Low Water Pressure
A steady drop in pressure throughout the house often points to a leak or corrosion in the main line.
Unexplained Wet Spots in the Yard
Water pooling above the line's path, even without rain, is a classic sign of a break.
Discolored Water
Rust-colored water can mean an old galvanized line is corroding from the inside.
Rising Water Bills
A line leaking underground can waste significant water before it ever becomes visible.
Sounds of Running Water
Water audibly moving through the line when everything inside is off suggests a leak.
Sinkholes or Soft Ground
Saturated soil from a persistent leak can create soft or sunken areas along the line's path.

Prevention
Maintenance Tips to Avoid Bigger Problems
Know Your Water Line's Age and Material
Older galvanized lines are more prone to failure and worth planning to replace proactively.
Watch Your Meter
A meter that keeps moving with everything in the house off usually means a leak somewhere in the line.
Address Low Pressure Early
Gradually worsening pressure is often easier and cheaper to fix before it becomes a full break.
Keep the Water Line Path Clear
Avoid planting trees or heavy landscaping directly over a known water line path.
