Supplying Pipe Leak

Sometimes, one of the underground pipes supplying water from the metering joint to your house may have a crack or loose joint. The causes of these leaks vary, but factors such as the pipe’s age, seismic activity, tree root invasion, and animal activity are often contributing factors.

Although this problem is similar to an irrigation system leakage, it is usually much more severe. When finding out whether the leak is in your irrigation line or the sideline water supply line, use your water bill to keep control.

The best solution for these leaks is to contact a professional. Professionals can carry out the best solutions to these problems by doing traditional trenching and replacement, trenchless pipe lining, or pipe rupture.

  1. If people would just flush the toilet every 3 to 5 times after urinating, it would save a lot of water, instead of flushing every time.

  2. Water is a natural resource that belongs to the American people! Pumping and delivering water to the citizenry is done by private entities – they are entitled to receive monies for this service, however, THEY ARE NOT ENTITLED TO CHARGE US FOR OUR OWN WATER which belongs to us, the American people! This is another corruption and theft foisted on the American people and needs to STOP!

  3. People who live alone do not need to flush after each bathroom use. In the last years I have paid for actual water use one month per year, except for the customer charge which is unavoidable because of government ripoffs.

  4. You pay more for bottle water than from your tap. If you do not like how things are done, just drill a well in your back yard and get YOUR water for free or dig a big hole in your yard, sink a tank, get water trucked in and drink and flush all you want.
