Process

Water-line repair

First confirm the leak. Then locate it and choose the least disruptive sound repair.

STEP 01

Confirm and isolate

Meter, shutoff, pressure, and moisture checks separate a service-line leak from indoor or irrigation use.

STEP 02

Map the route

We review depth, material, bends, utilities, trees, hardscape, soil, and access.

STEP 03

Repair and test

We compare spot repair, boring, and trenching, then pressure-test the restored line.

Diagnosis

Repair or replace?

The pipe and route determine the scope.

Utility or property side

Confirm the utility boundary and failure location before assigning responsibility.

Repair or replace

Repair one sound-pipe failure; consider replacement for brittle, corroded, undersized, or repeatedly repaired pipe.

Boring or trenching

Boring reduces excavation on some long rural runs but needs access at both ends; site constraints may favor trenching.

Vancouver & Clark County

City and rural lines

City services and long rural lines can show the same symptoms. Route, source, terrain, connections, utility boundaries, and required locating determine the plan.

True Plumbing is an excellent and fair business. Jason R. Is very skilled and personable. I appreciate his professionalism and confidence. He wants to do things perfectly correct. I recommend Jason, Danny and True Plumbing.

Joseph SligerTrue Plumbing
★★★★★

Everything about working with True Plumbing was top notch, professional, and still human and friendly. Nick came out to consult, and he was both knowledgeable and friendly. Eric showed up on time and ready to rock. He encountered and overcame some unforeseen challenges (behind our walls) without missing a beat. I was wrongly skeptical of a one man show taking on the task, but he got it done and within the time they had quoted. Add to all this, they did it for 20% less than my previous bids. I will definitely be recommending True Plumbing to others.

Good to know

Water line questions

How can I tell whether my underground water line is leaking?
Check for unexplained meter movement, higher bills, low pressure, wet ground, or water sounds with fixtures off. Rule out irrigation, toilets, and indoor leaks first.
Who repairs the water line between the meter and my house?
The boundary varies by utility. Confirm the provider and failure location before assuming public or owner responsibility.
Can a leaking water line be spot repaired?
Yes, when one section fails and the remaining pipe is sound. Repeated leaks, corrosion, or weak material can make replacement the better scope.
Can a water line be replaced without trenching the whole yard?
Sometimes. Directional boring can reduce excavation on suitable routes, especially long rural runs, but it needs access at both ends. Soil, bends, utilities, trees, depth, and connections may require trenching.
What affects the cost of water-line repair or replacement?
Location, length, depth, material, access, paving, landscaping, utilities, soil, permits, and repair versus replacement.
Should I shut off the water if the service line is leaking?
It depends on flow, pressure loss, and damage risk. If you cannot safely identify the correct valve, call the utility or a plumber.
