Water Main Repair Process

Clear Process, No Surprises

First, we locate the problem using advanced diagnostic equipment, including sewer cameras that show us exactly what’s happening underground. No guesswork, no unnecessary digging, no inflated estimates based on assumptions. Next, we explain what we found and give you options. Sometimes it’s a simple valve replacement. Sometimes it requires replacing a section of pipe. We’ll tell you exactly what needs to be done and why, with upfront pricing before any work begins. Then we get to work. Depending on the repair, we might use trenchless methods to minimize disruption to your property, or traditional excavation if that’s the most effective approach. Either way, we protect your landscaping and restore everything when we’re finished.

Do you handle permits and inspections for water main work?

Yes, we handle all necessary permits and coordinate required inspections for water main repairs in Grizzly Flats. This includes working with El Dorado County and the Grizzly Flats Community Services District as needed. Permit requirements vary depending on the scope of work, but we know local regulations and take care of the paperwork for you. This ensures your repair meets current codes and prevents future issues with your water service. We also coordinate any required inspections and make sure everything passes before we consider the job complete. You won’t have to worry about dealing with multiple agencies or understanding complex requirements.

What's the difference between trenchless and traditional water main repair?

Trenchless repair involves minimal digging and uses specialized equipment to repair or replace pipes from access points, while traditional repair requires excavating along the entire pipe route. Both methods have their place depending on your specific situation. Trenchless methods cost more upfront but save money on landscaping restoration and take less time to complete. They’re ideal when your water line runs under driveways, mature landscaping, or other obstacles that would be expensive to restore. Traditional excavation costs less initially and gives us complete access to inspect the entire line. We recommend this approach when multiple sections need attention or when we need to upgrade your entire service connection. We’ll explain which method works best for your situation and budget.

How do I know if I need water main repair?

Common signs include low water pressure throughout your home, discolored or rusty water, unexplained increases in your water bill, wet spots in your yard, or the sound of running water when all fixtures are turned off. You might also notice that your water has an unusual taste or smell, or that some areas of your lawn are unusually green while others are dry. These can indicate underground leaks that need immediate attention. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, don’t wait. Water main problems typically get worse over time and can cause significant property damage. We offer free diagnostics to determine exactly what’s happening and give you options for fixing it.

Are you licensed and insured for water main work?

Yes, we hold California Contractor License Cl#916322 and maintain full liability insurance for all water main repair work. We’re also bonded, which protects you in the unlikely event of any issues with our work. Our licensing means we’re qualified to handle everything from simple repairs to complete water service line replacements. We stay current with continuing education requirements and local code changes to ensure every job meets professional standards. Insurance coverage includes protection for your property during our work and liability coverage for our team. We can provide proof of insurance before starting any job, and we never ask customers to accept unnecessary risk.
