Repair or replace
Locate
We confirm the leak is on your side of the meter and find the spot before digging.
Repair
For a single break on a newer line, we dig at the leak, cut out the damaged section and join new pipe in.
Replace
For old or failing lines, we run a new line from the meter to the house, often with a new shutoff valve at the house.
Restore
We backfill, compact and leave the yard as close to the way we found it as we can.
Water Line Repair questions
Who is responsible for the water line?
In Gilbert the town is generally responsible up to the meter, and the homeowner from the meter to the house. If the leak is on the town side we will tell you so you can call them.
Will you have to dig up my landscaping?
Only along the path of the line, and only where needed. We work around plants and irrigation where we can.
