Water Line Repair

Determining the need for water line repair is an important decision for homeowners. The experts at Fite Plumbing can guide you through the process and help you make the best decision. First, take a look at some signs your water line needs repair:

Indicators of Water Line Damage: What to Watch For

  • Low Water Pressure: A significant decrease in water pressure throughout your home, not just in one spot like the shower, may indicate a water line leak that requires repair.
  • Gurgling or Hissing Sounds: Unusual sounds from the pipes in your home’s ceiling, walls, or floor could indicate a broken pipe needing repair. It’s best to address this issue promptly to prevent further problems.
  • Discolored or Murky Water: If your water appears discolored or murky, it may indicate an issue with your water line. While a rust-tinted stream might not necessarily mean your water line is compromised, it’s advisable to have a professional inspect it to rule out any problems.
  • Soggy Areas or Puddles in the Yard: Soggy spots or puddles in your yard when there shouldn’t be could indicate a severe problem with your water line.

 

Causes of Water Main Line Leaks

Several factors can contribute to a water main line leak. Common causes include:

  • Old Pipes: Over time, the quality of pipes deteriorates, making them more prone to leaks.
  • Excessively High Water Pressure: While high water pressure is desirable, it can strain the main water line and lead to leaks.
  • Poor Installation: The quality of the initial installation or subsequent repairs can affect the performance of your main water line and potentially cause issues.

Regardless of the problem or season, water line repair plumbers have the expertise to diagnose your issue and inform you of the necessary repairs before starting any work. Their expertise helps you decide the best course of action for your home’s water mainline.
