Water Line Installation and Inspections
Water Line Installation and Inspections
You can avoid most plumbing emergencies by asking a few questions about your system:
The average age of water mains that have broken in the U.S. is 47 years old. If your pipes are anywhere near this old, it’s time for a new water line installation. Old pipes are typically either beyond repair or aren’t worth the costs to repair. Replacing old pipes can prevent a serious flooding incident.
Tree roots are one of the most common causes of water line issues. Tree roots often seek out water pipes as a source of water and oxygen. If you have mature tree roots near your pipes, it may cause clogs and blocks that lead to repairs.
The warning signs of a broken or clogged water line include a consistently clogged toilet, slow drainage, and sputtering faucets. If you notice these signs, contact a plumbing company to inspect your water line.

Asking yourself these questions will give you a better idea of the state of your water line and sewer pipes. If you don’t know the answers to these questions, always contact a professional plumbing company to verify that your pipes are safe and operating efficiently. Ignoring even a small leak can result in damaging mold growth, wood rot, and flooding.
