You Deserve a Reliable Water Supply
The main water line is the primary source of water for all the faucets, appliances, and fixtures in your home. If it becomes damaged or compromised, your water supply can be disrupted or contaminated, affecting your ability to carry out daily tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and bathing. Keeping the main water line in good condition is essential to maintaining a reliable water source for your household.
Common Problems With Main Water Lines
- Leaks and Cracks. Over time, main water lines can develop leaks or cracks due to shifting soil, tree root intrusion, or natural wear and tear. Even a small leak can lead to higher water bills, lower water pressure, and potential flooding. In severe cases, water line breaks can cause significant damage to your property and foundation, requiring immediate repair by a licensed plumber.
- Corrosion. Older homes may have water lines made of materials such as galvanized steel or lead which can corrode over time. Corrosion inside the pipes can lead to discolored water, reduced water quality, and weakened pipe integrity, increasing the risk of a burst line. Corroded pipes should be replaced to ensure safe and clean water.
- Clogs and Blockages. Mineral buildup or debris can clog the main water line, reducing water pressure throughout your home. This can make simple tasks such as showering or doing laundry more difficult. A licensed plumber can clear out these blockages using specialized tools or replace damaged sections of the line in severe cases.
- Tree Root Intrusion. Tree roots are naturally attracted to the moisture in water lines. Over time, they can infiltrate and block the pipes, leading to serious blockages or breaks. A plumber can use advanced techniques such as hydro jetting or trenchless pipe repair to resolve the issue.
A licensed plumber has the expertise and equipment needed to diagnose and repair main water line problems, ensuring your water supply remains safe and reliable.
