Signs of a Water Main Break

Now, how do you know if you have a water main break? Well, there are a number of signs that will help you notice if something like this occurs, some, of course, are more noticeable than others. Get in touch with us if you see any of the following points:

● Skyrocketing water bill

● Sudden low water pressure

● Discolored or dirty water

● Unusual noises coming from your pipes or plumbing fixtures

● Water that seeps or pools in your basement or crawl space, even in the driest of weather

● Water that gushes or flows up from the ground

● Sinking ground, driveway, sidewalks, parking lot or roadway

● Unusually wet or soggy ground

● Have polybutylene pipe (a pipe known to fail over time)

After checking the extent of the damage, as well as all the contributing factors such as tree roots or corrosion, an estimate of repair costs will be given, and then we will suggest what to do and if a water line replacement is needed.

We know that you might feel the urge to fix by yourself any issue you may have detected. We do not recommend taking these kinds of measures because of different reasons. You may think that you know what you are doing, but you might make the problem even worse, costing you more money. You may be putting yourself at risk by not using the correct methods or the right equipment. We always recommend calling for professionals, like our team, which will be there for you to aid you with any problem you might have. We diagnose any issue, and then we know how to approach this problem in order to have it fixed quickly, efficiently, and with a high-quality result.

 Water Line Replacement

There are two important factors to take into consideration by your plumber when making a decision. One is the extent of damage, and the other one is how old your water line is. Depending on these two factors, your plumber may recommend a water line replacement. This is very important if your pipes are very old and they are corroded or crumpling. You would not solve a single thing by just repairing one spot, that is why you would need to do a full water line replacement. Our specialized team will always advise you on what is better for you and your waterline. Call us, and we will help you with any issue you may have. Our professional team will help you detect issues and will advise you on the best options.
