What our Clients think about us
Your satisfaction is our priority.
What Is Main Water Line Repair and Replacement?
Your main water line is the pipe that runs from the city meter or well connection into your building. When it fails, you may notice:
No water or very low pressure throughout the property
Wet or muddy spots in the yard or along the driveway/walk
Water bubbling from the ground near the meter or where the line runs
Unexplained high water bills
Main water line repair and replacement means:
Finding and repairing leaks on an otherwise healthy line, or
Replacing the entire line when it’s old, undersized, or compromised
The goal is to restore reliable, safe water service with a line that will last for years, not just until the next leak.
Why Choose Active Plumbing
Emergency-capable: We respond to urgent main line leaks and shutoffs, not just small indoor repairs.
Repair vs. replacement honesty: We’ll explain when a spot repair is reasonable and when a full line replacement is the smarter long-term move.
Local ground and soil experience: Familiar with Las Vegas soils, sidewalks, driveways, and property layouts that affect main line routing.
Pressure & flow aware: We consider pressure, pipe size, and demand so your new line is properly sized.
Clean, code-compliant work: All materials and methods follow local codes and standards.
Licensed & insured: Nevada License #0047021, trusted for main water line replacement in Las Vegas and nearby areas.
Immediate Actions (What to Do Now)
If water is pooling in your yard, near the street, or around the foundation, shut off the main water valve if you can safely access it.
Avoid driving or placing heavy objects over visibly saturated ground where you suspect the line may be leaking.
Check if the loss of water or low pressure is affecting the entire property or just one area; this helps narrow down whether it’s a main line issue or something inside.
Take a quick look at your water meter (if accessible); note whether it keeps spinning even when all fixtures and irrigation are off.
Call Active Plumbing at (702) 438-3357, describe whether you have no water, low pressure, a visible yard leak, or a high bill, and we’ll guide you on immediate steps and schedule main water line repair or replacement.
Common Main Water Line Problems We See
Old or corroded water service lines that have started to fail in multiple spots
Cracked or broken lines from ground movement, roots, or aging materials
Kinked, undersized, or poorly installed lines causing low pressure
Visible yard leaks—soggy patches, standing water, or water running along driveways or sidewalks
Sudden pressure loss with no visible indoor leaks, pointing to a main line issue
High water bills with no change in usage and no obvious interior leaks
If your whole home is affected and you see yard or meter symptoms, the main water line is a prime suspect.
Call & Symptom Review
You call (702) 438-3357 and tell us what you’re experiencing—no water, low pressure, soggy yard, or high bill. We schedule a visit, prioritizing calls where water is shut off or actively leaking.
On-Site Inspection & Line Evaluation
Your plumber inspects the meter, shutoff valve, visible piping, and yard, and may perform pressure tests or isolation checks to confirm that the main water line is the source of the problem.
Locate Leak or Plan Replacement Route
We determine whether a specific leak location can be identified for spot repair or whether the line shows age/material issues that make full replacement smarter. We map out the best route for a new line (if needed), considering access, landscaping, and structures.
Options: Repair vs. Replacement & Upfront Pricing
We explain the pros and cons of a localized repair versus a full replacement, discuss materials and route, and provide clear, written pricing for each option so you can make an informed decision.
Main Line Repair or Full Replacement Work
For repairs, we expose the damaged section, replace it with new pipe and fittings, and re-test. For replacements, we install a new main water line along the planned path, connect at the meter and entry point, and may upgrade shutoff valves and pressure regulation as part of the job.
Testing, Backfill & Final Walkthrough
We pressurize and test the repaired or new line, confirm proper pressure and flow inside your home, and then backfill and compact our trench/excavation as specified. You get a walkthrough of what was done, where the line runs, and any future maintenance suggestions.
What’s Included
On-site diagnosis of main water line condition and leak/pressure issues
Leak confirmation and/or route planning for repair or new line installation
Main water line repair or full replacement using approved materials
Shutoff valve and connection work at meter and building entry, as included in scope
System pressure testing and fixture checks after the repair or replacement
Documentation summarizing findings, work performed, and recommendations
Costs & Timelines (What to Expect)
Many main water line repairs can be diagnosed and stabilized the same day, while full replacements may take a day or more, depending on length and complexity.
You receive clear, upfront pricing once we evaluate the line and present repair vs. replacement options.
Costs depend on length and depth of the line, access (landscaping, concrete, hardscapes), material choice and size, and whether we’re performing a spot repair or full replacement.
Every project includes a line-item estimate covering diagnostic, excavation, materials, labor, shutoff/connection work, and any optional upgrades (like pressure regulator replacement).
Insurance & Claims Help
Main water line failures sometimes involve yard, foundation, or interior water damage that may relate to insurance or utility programs:
We can note where the line failed, what type of pipe it was, and what repairs/replacement were performed.
Our detailed invoices can help document the plumbing side of your situation for insurance or home warranty considerations.
We can coordinate with restoration or mitigation companies if water has affected interior spaces or landscaping.
(Coverage decisions are always made by your specific insurance or warranty provider; this is not financial or legal advice.)
Risks of Waiting (Why Act Now)
Worsening leaks: Small main line leaks can grow rapidly, increasing water loss and damage.
Soil erosion & settlement: Water escaping underground can wash away soil, potentially affecting sidewalks, driveways, and around foundations.
High water bills: A leaking main can waste hundreds or thousands of gallons before you realize it.
Sudden loss of water: A weakened line may fail completely, leaving you with no water at all until it’s repaired.
Repeat digging and disruption: Spot repairs on a badly aged line can lead to multiple future excavations in different locations.
Methods, Materials & Quality Standards
Approved materials: We use code-compliant piping and fittings sized correctly for your home and local water service.
Proper depth and bedding: Lines are installed with appropriate depth, support, and backfill based on site conditions and code.
Secure connections: Meter and entry connections are made with approved fittings and shutoffs, tightened and tested.
Pressure & flow checks: We consider pressure regulation and supply demands so your fixtures perform properly.
Local code compliance: All main water line work adheres to local plumbing codes in Clark County and surrounding jurisdictions.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if it’s my main water line or a city issue?
If the leak or problem is between the meter and your home, it’s usually on the homeowner’s side. We can help check the meter, pressure, and line to confirm where the issue lies.
Can you just patch the leak, or do I need a whole new line?
It depends on the age, material, and overall condition of the line. Sometimes a spot repair is appropriate; other times, the line is in such poor shape that replacement is more cost-effective long term. We’ll explain both options when possible.
Will you need to dig up my whole yard?
For full replacements, a trench or series of access points is usually needed, but we plan the route to minimize disruption as much as site conditions allow. For repairs, excavation is often limited to the damaged section.
How long does main water line replacement take?
Many residential replacements can be completed within a day or so, depending on length, access, and site conditions. We’ll give you a realistic timeline after evaluating your property.
Will my water be off the whole time?
Water will be off during critical portions of the repair or replacement, but we plan the work to limit total downtime as much as possible.
