Water Lines
When something goes wrong with a water line in your home, it can be an incredibly stressful experience.

Our technicians have years of experience providing water line installation, maintenance and repair services in the region and be glad to count you among our many satisfied customers.
Water Line Repair
If a problem occurs in your water line, it may not always be easy to reach. Main water lines in particular come into your home underground and are usually insulated against intrusion by a few feet of earth and concrete. A cracked, leaking, or broken water line often requires digging if there isn’t an established access point.
This is why it’s so important to call a skilled plumber at the first sign of trouble. Using the newest technology, a plumber can pinpoint the exact location of a leak and dig only in that spot. In some cases, digging can be avoided entirely, saving you hassle and destruction to your property.
Water Line Leaks
While many people often associate water line breaks with freezing temperatures or other types of sudden trauma damaging the pipe, most broken water lines have been in poor condition, slowly deteriorating for years. All metal corrodes and in some cases, high water pressure and root infiltration from nearby shrubs or trees can create cracks. No matter how well installed your water line was when the house was built, it will eventually start to show its age.
There are some instances where a water line leak may be caused by high pressure in the water main; either due to a leak or to a problem in someone else’s plumbing. The only way to know for sure is to call a professional to check for specific problems.
Water Line Problems
The only true way to determine if your water line needs repair is to watch for signs of a leak. The most common sign, especially in a buried line, is a higher water bill or rapidly increasing water meter reading. Watch your water meter on a daily basis if you suspect a leak and check to see if it increases more than it normally would.
More often than not, a water line leak won’t result in a geyser spurting out of your yard – it is hidden and if you notice it visibly, it’s already gotten well out of hand.
Whatever the case, know that Ace Pelizon is the company to call for water line problems in the Los Angeles County area. Whether you already suspect a leak or you just want to have your water lines inspected, call us today for immediate, professional service.
