Causes of Water Line Damage
Main water lines bring water into homes from the municipal water system. Water lines are buried in the ground and deliver clean water for years with no need for repairs or maintenance. However, any pipe can become damaged or develop a leak. Underground water lines can sustain damage in a few different ways.
Some causes of main water line damage include:
- Excavating above the water line
- Ground shifting or earthquakes
- Pipes degrading over time
- High water pressure
- Freezing and thawing
- Repair yard leaks
- Driving heavy equipment over the water line
You may have a problem with the main water line if you have low water pressure in the house, discolored water, or higher water bills than normal. A leak in an underground water line can cause water to pool above the pipe. If your lawn looks flooded or water is puddling near the foundation, even if it hasn’t rained, you may have a leak in the main water line.
Finding and fixing main water line problems requires the right equipment, tools, and knowledge. Licensed plumbers know how to identify a problem with main water lines using hydrostatic tests and other time-tested methods. Your plumber will advise you of the options for main water line repair or replacement.
Main Water Line Services
The services that are needed for main water lines depend on the problem and degree of damage to the pipe. When the whole pipe isn’t damaged or corroded, your plumber may be able to repair or replace the failed section of pipe or fix connections that may have come loose. However, this is not possible in all situations.
Replacement is needed for water lines that are:
- More than 40 or 50 years old
- Badly corroded or disintegrating
- Made of poor-quality materials, such as polybutylene or galvanized steel
- Have lead pipes, fittings, or soldering, due to the risk of lead poisoning
Installing or replacing a main water line is a big job that requires plumbers with the right training and resources. Your licensed plumbers will secure all necessary permits, complete the job quickly and efficiently, and ensure that your underground pipe installation meets all code requirements.
