Signs You Have Water Line Issues

Water line issues can be destructive to your home and plumbing if left unresolved and undetected for too long. At Al Marino, we recommend calling our team to inspect your plumbing as soon as you notice any of these warning signs:

• A musty, mildewy, or moldy smell in your home
• Signs of excessive moisture, such as mold, damp spots, or warped wood
• The sound of water running, even when no water is running
• Poor water pressure or changes in water pressure
• Increasing water bills without an increase in water usage

Water Line Repair vs. Replacement

When dealing with water line problems, determining whether to repair or replace the water line can be difficult. In many cases, the expert plumbers at Al Marino can repair your water line with minimal disruption, controlling costs and getting things back to normal as quickly as possible. Many water line issues affect only joints or other parts, which are easily replaced or repaired.

When a pipe is damaged, replacement becomes much more common, with options that vary depending on the pipe’s material and the nature of the damage. You can count on our team for expert water line replacement or repair.

FAQs

If my water line leak is located under my yard, will you have to dig a trench through my entire lawn?

Not necessarily; we often use trenchless technology to repair or replace underground water lines with minimal excavation. This allows us to install a new line by only digging two small access points, preserving your landscaping, driveway, and sidewalks.

How do I know if the leak is on my property or the city’s side of the water main?

A simple way to check is to look at your water meter; if the dial is spinning while all your indoor faucets are off, the leak is likely on your side of the line. Our technicians can perform a precise pressure test to confirm the exact location and provide the necessary documentation if the repair is actually the responsibility of the municipal water department.

What is the difference between a “spot repair” and a full water line repipe?

A spot repair involves fixing a single broken joint or a small pinhole leak, which is a great short-term solution for relatively new pipes. However, if your water line is made of outdated materials like galvanized steel or lead, or if it has multiple leaks, we usually recommend a full replacement to prevent recurring issues and ensure your water remains clean.

Will a new water line installation help improve the low water pressure in my upstairs bathroom?

Yes, if your low pressure is caused by mineral buildup or corrosion inside old pipes, a new water line with a larger diameter or smoother interior (like PEX or copper) will significantly improve flow. We can also check your home’s pressure-reducing valve (PRV) during the installation to ensure your system is operating at the optimal PSI.

How long does a typical main water line replacement take, and will I be without water the whole time?

Most residential water line replacements can be completed in a single day. We prepare the new line before disconnecting the old one, so your actual water service will typically be interrupted for only a few hours while we make the final connections to your home and the meter.
