Water Line Repair & Replacement

A damaged or undersized water line can cause low water pressure, unexplained water use, wet areas on the property and costly damage if the problem is left unresolved. Performance Plumbing Solutions provides professional water line diagnosis, repair and replacement for residential and commercial properties.

We assess the condition and location of the affected line, explain the available options and provide a clear scope of work before repairs begin.

Signs You May Have a Water Line Problem

Low or inconsistent water pressure, wet or unusually soft areas on the lawn, discoloured water and an unexpected increase in the water bill can indicate a leaking or deteriorated water line. Complete loss of water service or water entering near the foundation may require more immediate attention.

Water Line Services We Provide

Performance Plumbing Solutions provides water-line repairs, replacements and upgrades based on the condition, location and intended use of the piping. Our water-line services include:

  • Underground water-service leak repair

  • Complete water-service replacement

  • Interior water-line replacement and repiping

  • Emergency burst-pipe repair

  • New foundation penetrations for replacement services

  • Residential and commercial water-line installations

Underground Water Service Repair and Replacement

Underground water-service problems can develop because of corrosion, shifting soil, freezing, damaged fittings or aging pipe materials. Depending on the location and extent of the damage, we may recommend repairing an isolated section or replacing the complete private water service.

The proposed route, pipe material, excavation requirements and areas affected by the work will be explained before installation begins. New water-service piping is installed and tested in accordance with applicable plumbing-code requirements.

Interior Water Line Replacement and Repiping

Aging, leaking or unreliable interior water lines may require more than an isolated repair. Performance Plumbing Solutions can replace deteriorated or problematic piping and install new water-distribution lines for individual fixtures, renovated areas or complete properties.

Before repiping begins, we review the existing system, identify the fixtures being supplied and explain where access may be required. The new piping is properly sized, supported, connected and tested before the work is considered complete.

Improving Water Pressure and Flow

Low water pressure can be caused by an undersized water service, restricted or corroded piping, partially closed valves, pressure-control problems or excessive demand within the building. We assess the plumbing system to help identify the likely cause before recommending corrective work.

When replacement or upgrading is appropriate, we consider the existing service size, building requirements and fixture demand. Increasing pipe size may improve available flow, but the final result also depends on municipal supply pressure and the condition of the remaining plumbing system.

Planning, Excavation and Property Restoration

Water-line work may require exterior excavation, access through a foundation wall or openings inside the building. Before work begins, the proposed access route, required utility locates and expected areas of disturbance will be reviewed with the property owner.

The written scope should clearly identify what excavation, backfilling and basic plumbing-related restoration are included. Landscaping, finished flooring, concrete, asphalt and other property restoration should only be considered included when specifically stated in the estimate.
