What is water service line replacement?

Water service line replacement involves removing and replacing the underground pipe that delivers water from the city supply to your home.

When is water service line replacement recommended instead of repair?

Replacement is recommended when the line is heavily corroded, made of outdated materials, leaking in multiple areas, or has reached the end of its service life.

What materials are used for water service line replacement?

Modern replacements typically use durable materials such as copper or high-quality polyethylene (PEX or HDPE), depending on local codes and site conditions.

Does water service line replacement require excavation?

Yes. The existing service line must be accessed, but excavation is planned carefully to minimize disruption to landscaping, driveways, and hardscaping.

Can water service line replacement improve water pressure?

Yes. Replacing aging or undersized service lines often improves water pressure, flow consistency, and overall system performance.

How long does water service line replacement usually take?

Most water service line replacements are completed in one to two days, depending on distance, depth, and access conditions.
