What Are Common Causes of Water Line Damage?
Our service professionals work quickly to determine the cause of your water line damage and create an effective plumbing plan. We use video camera inspection equipment to determine the location of your water line issue and choose an effective solution. Some of the causes of water line damage may include the following: 
Clogged Lines
Your water line can get clogged with foreign objects, mineral deposits, toilet paper, and other things.
Tree Root Intrusion
Tree roots grow towards your water pipes searching for hydration and often create clogs when they get into the pipes.
Aging Pipes
If you have an older home, the pipes are at a higher risk of corrosion.
Ground Movement
Construction or inclement weather can cause excessive pressure to push on the pipes.
Extreme Water Pressure
Constant water pressure flowing through your pipes can corrode them and break them down.
Water Line Repairs vs. Water Line Replacement
We understand many homeowners don’t want to face the expense of a water line replacement, but it is something the best choice for your plumbing’s overall health. We consider many factors when determining if you need a water line repair or replacement, including the following:
- If your underground water lines are over 50 years old, it’s best to install a new water line. A healthy water line replacement lasts decades.
- If you have lead or galvanized water lines, they must be upgraded. We can inspect your current pipes to determine if they can withstand further repairs.
- If your water line repairs are more than 50 percent of the cost of a new water line, we recommend a new one. Damaged water lines will continue to need repairs.
Does Homeowners Insurance Cover Main Water Line Replacement?
Many insurance companies determine that water line issues are predictable due to wear and tear. They typically do not cover a new water line replacement. The best option is to choose our plumbing maintenance services. We routinely inspect the health of your plumbing to stay on top of any potential plumbing problems. Contact your homeowner’s insurance for more information about your plumbing coverage.
