Piping & Main Line FAQs
What causes main water supply lines to leak underground?
Soil shifting, ground freezing cycles, aging pipe materials like galvanized steel, and high water pressure can cause underground supply pipes to crack or split over time.
How do tree roots damage main sewer lines?
Tree roots naturally seek moisture and enter main sewer pipes through tiny joint cracks, gradually expanding inside the pipe until they block waste flow completely.
What is the difference between a main water line and a sewer line?
The main water line brings fresh, pressurized water into your home from the municipal main, while the main sewer line carries wastewater away under gravity from your property.
Can a single broken sewer pipe cause whole-house drainage issues?
Yes, because all home branch drains empty into your main sewer line, a blockage or crack in that main pipe stops wastewater from leaving any fixture in your home.
How can I tell if a leak is on my main line or the city's line?
roperty owners are responsible for the main water and sewer lateral lines extending from the water meter or property boundary line to the home structure.
