Signs Your Water Line May Need to Be Replaced
If you think something may be wrong with your water line, we can use advanced diagnostic tools and techniques to thoroughly assess the condition of its piping and identify any underlying issues. During this evaluation, we consider factors like age, material, the extent of damage, and the overall functionality of your system. This allows us to provide a transparent recommendation on whether a repair or hydro jetting can restore optimal performance or if a full replacement is the most reliable solution for long-term results.
You shouldn’t wait to schedule a water line inspection if you are dealing with any of the following problems:
- Frequent leaks or repairs. Experiencing multiple water line leaks over a short period often indicates that your line's structure is compromised. Aging pipes or recurring weak points can lead to ongoing disruptions and costly short-term fixes. Replacing the water line may be a more cost-effective solution.
- Low water pressure. A noticeable drop in water pressure can signal significant blockages, corrosion, or even cracks somewhere in your plumbing, including your water line. These issues could point to advanced deterioration that requires a replacement to restore proper pressure and water flow.

What Can Damage My Water Line?
Most water lines can last many decades before needing replacement if they receive regular maintenance, though some pipe materials tend to last longer than others. However, certain types of threats can cause significant damage to water lines that require premature replacement. Our Plymouth water line services include help identifying risk factors on your property.
Your water line may not last as long as it should if it is damaged by:
- Tree root intrusion. Tree roots are always in search of moisture and can grow toward water lines. Strong roots can eventually wrap around or even infiltrate pipes, causing cracks, leaks, or complete blockages. Properties with older pipes or large tree growth near the water line face a particularly high risk of root intrusion.
- Corrosion and material deterioration. Water lines constructed from older, outdated materials tend to be more prone to corrosion over time. Corrosion weakens the pipe structure and can lead to leaks or even bursts.
- Ground shifting and soil movement. Gradual soil shifting due to weather changes can displace or strain water lines. These movements put stress on pipes and cause cracks or disconnections, especially in aging systems.
- Freezing temperatures. Freezing temperatures can turn the water inside pipes into ice. Ice expansion increases pressure within your line, potentially leading to cracks or bursts. Shallowly buried pipes are at a higher risk of freezing during extreme weather conditions.
- High water pressure. Excessive water pressure places undue stress on pipes and increases the likelihood of ruptures or leaks. Over time, consistently high water pressure can degrade even the sturdiest materials and reduce the longevity of your water line.
- Poor installation or maintenance practices. Improper installation techniques or substandard materials can compromise the reliability of a water line from the start. Additionally, overlooking routine maintenance or ignoring seemingly small issues may allow manageable problems to escalate into serious damage.
When your water line shows signs of trouble, we can get to the bottom of what is wrong and recommend the right solution. Call (734) 336-1339 or contact us online to schedule an inspection today.
