Waterline
Keeping Your Water Supply Running Smoothly
One water supply line runs from the street, under your property and into your home. By turning on the faucet, you have fresh, clean water for drinking, cooking, bathing and cleaning.
Normally, a water line should provide many years of trouble-free service. If, however, you notice a sudden drop in water pressure, a discoloration of your water or a recurring wet area in your yard, you should contact your Superior Plumbing expert as soon as possible to conduct a complete inspection of your home or business water line.
Your plumber will use an electronic device to determine the exact location of the water line. If needed, your water line will be charged with nitrogen to find the exact location of the leak. Depending on the size and location of the leak, the plumbing professionals from Superior Plumbing will assess the scope of work necessary to correct the problem before any work begins.
There are a variety of reasons why your water line may need servicing:
• Tree roots may have gotten into the pipe
• High water pressure
• Mineral build-up
• Acidic soil conditions
• Ground movement
• Freezing and thawing of the ground
• General deterioration due to age
Should the Water Line be Repaired or Replaced?
Often, only a section of the water line needs to be replaced. Faulty sections of pipe are replaced with thick, high-quality copper piping. The repaired or replaced water line is then pressure-tested for leaks. After the repair has passed local inspection, your property can be returned to its original condition.
The professionals at Superior Plumbing will locate any leaks that may be plaguing your main water line. They will discuss the pros and cons of repairing or replacing any defective pipes that interfere with your home or business receiving a flow of clean water.
