Main Water Line Replacement in Falls Church, VA

The main water line is the pipe that runs from the meter or curb stop to the shutoff valve inside your house. When it fails, everything downstream fails with it. SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Falls Church, VA homeowners with plumbers who replace that line end to end.

Most older service lines are 3/4 inch galvanized steel, early polyethylene or, in some cities, lead. The usual replacement is 1 inch Type K copper or HDPE CTS tubing, which gives a busy house more flow at the far fixtures. The new line goes below your local frost depth and gets a fresh shutoff where it enters the wall.

Signs the main line is done: a wet stripe in the lawn that never dries, a meter that spins with every tap closed, or brown water after the street has been flushed.

The crew calls 811 for utility locates before digging, then trenches or bores depending on the yard. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 to talk through your water line replacement.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Main Water Line Replacement in Falls Church, VA.

Talk to a person
How do I know if my main water line needs replacement in Falls Church, VA?
Look for a wet patch in the yard that never dries, a meter that moves with every fixture closed, low pressure at the hose bib, or rusty water. If the line is galvanized, lead or polybutylene, replacement usually beats repair.
How long does a whole house repipe take?
Most occupied homes take two to five days, depending on size, number of bathrooms and access. Water is usually restored at the end of each work day.
How deep is a water service line buried?
It has to sit below the local frost line. That can be 12 inches in warm southern areas and 5 feet or more in the northern states. Your local code sets the exact depth.
Who owns the water line between the street and my house?
In most areas the utility owns the line up to the meter or curb stop, and the homeowner owns the rest. Rules vary by city, so it is worth asking your water department.
What causes pinhole leaks in copper pipe?
Pinholes usually come from pitting corrosion caused by water chemistry, such as low pH or high chlorine or chloramine, or by high flow speed in small pipe. Repeat pinholes mean the whole run is thinning.
