If your pipes are less than 50 years old and still in decent condition, a main water line repair, where we just address the portion of the pipe that has failed, can be the best option. The decision on whether to just repair the single point of failure or to replace the whole water service line entails a lot of considerations around the specifics of your property and its water lines. Our expert technicians will shoot straight with what they think is the best plan of action, and what will save you the most money in the short run vs the long run.
The pipes that carry water from the water main on the street to your house are called water service laterals. Like any pipes, water service laterals age and can develop leaks, cracks or other structural issues. Their lifespan can vary depending on the pipe material.
The problem is, all the things you’ve built over the top of those water service laterals that were buried decades ago - sidewalks, driveways, patios, landscaping, etc - having to remove them just to dig up and replace the water service line can cause real damage to your property and increase the overall costs of the repair several times over. This is where trenchless water line replacement is a lifesaver.
Using a technique called ‘pipe bursting’ we’re able to burst open the existing pipe and use it as conduit to run new pipe through, and replace the damaged lateral, without having to dig up the old water line, resulting in significant cost savings over a traditional main water line replacement using excavation.
While spot water main repairs or trenchless water line replacement can be the right option, there are times where these aren’t the most cost-effective solution for your project. The conventional method for main water line replacement is excavation of a trench to replace the old pipe, and excluding all of the costs of repairing the damage where the trench is dug, this is the most cost effective way to replace an underground water pipe. Where the trenched area of the water service line is only covered by a small patch of grass that can be easily put back or resodded when the job is complete, conventional excavation for water line replacement can be a great option.
With water main repairs, there are a lot of ways to skin the cat. There are a lot of plumbers who don’t specialize in servicing underground water lines and their plan is to dig up floors, rip up patios and knock down walls to fix leaking pipes. And then there are the plumbers that charge a sky-high price for straight-forward work. A lot of these plumbers don’t actually do the work themselves and use a subcontractor. Call Water Main Utah first (or call us for a second opinion and find out just how big a price difference it can be). We’ll get the job done right the first time and we’ll shoot straight with you on the best and most cost effective plan of attack. We’ll get the water flowing as fast as possible.

Got questions? We’ve got answers.
Maintenance, repair and replacement of the water service lateral from the water meter to the structure is the property owner’s responsibility. In water utility districts servicing the residents of : Orem is responsible to maintain, repair and replace the water service line from the connection of the water main line to and including the public yoke assembly, meter box and water meter.
Two factors dictate when a main water line must be replaced: when the structure of the line has failed beyond repair and when the pipe is made out of lead or galvanced material. Technically as of this writing, Utah law does not require replacement of lead or galvanized pipes, but this is the recommendation of the Environmental Protection Agency and many states legally require replacement, and leaving these pipes with these materials in place can pose a health risk.
