Your home’s water line is the lifeline of your plumbing system. It delivers fresh water from the city supply into your faucets, showers, appliances, and fixtures every single day.

Why Water Line Health is So Important
Water lines are often out of sight and out of mind, running underground or behind walls. But when they fail, the results can be costly and damaging:
- Property Damage – A leaking or burst water line can flood your home or yard.
- Health Concerns – Cracked lines may allow contaminants into your water supply.
- Higher Bills – Even a small leak can waste thousands of gallons of water.
- Loss of Comfort – Low water pressure or no water at all disrupts daily life.
Proactive inspection and timely repair or replacement ensure your family has safe, clean, and reliable water every day.
Signs You May Need Water Line Repair
Sometimes it’s obvious when a water line has failed, but other times the warning signs are subtle. Call Rooter66 if you notice:
- Sudden drops in water pressure throughout the house
- Puddles, wet spots, or sinkholes in your yard
- Discolored or rusty water coming from faucets
- Unexplained spikes in water bills
- Constantly running water sounds when no fixtures are in use
- Cracks in the foundation or driveway caused by underground leaks
If you experience these issues, a professional inspection is the best way to determine whether a repair or full replacement is needed.

- PVC/CPVC – Used in certain applications where cost-effective, code-approved materials are acceptable.
We’ll walk you through your options and help you choose the best material based on your budget, property, and water needs.
