Curb Stop and Shutoff Valve Replacement in Los Angeles, CA

In an emergency you need to turn the water off fast. Many houses have a main shutoff that is an old gate valve, seized in place, or one that turns but never fully closes.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Los Angeles, CA homeowners with plumbers who replace those valves. Inside the house, the usual swap is a full port brass ball valve, a quarter turn from open to closed. The plumber may add a second valve on the other side of the meter or a pressure reducing valve at the same time.

The curb stop is the valve in a small box near the street or property line, operated with a long curb key. In many towns the utility owns it, so the plumber coordinates with the water department before working on it. A buried box filled with dirt or a broken stem rod is common.

If you cannot find or close your main shutoff, that is worth fixing before a pipe bursts. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Curb Stop and Shutoff Valve Replacement in Los Angeles, CA.

Talk to a person
How long does a whole house repipe take?
Most occupied homes take two to five days, depending on size, number of bathrooms and access. Water is usually restored at the end of each work day.
Is PEX or copper better for repiping?
PEX costs less, needs fewer wall openings and does not corrode. Copper handles heat well and lasts in friendly water but can pit in aggressive water. Many homes with past pinhole leaks choose PEX.
How deep is a water service line buried?
It has to sit below the local frost line. That can be 12 inches in warm southern areas and 5 feet or more in the northern states. Your local code sets the exact depth.
Should I replace my main shutoff valve during a repipe?
Yes. An old gate valve often seizes or fails to close fully. A full port quarter turn ball valve is a small addition to a repipe or water line replacement job.
Can slab leaks be fixed without breaking the floor?
Often the lines under the slab are abandoned and new PEX is rerouted through the attic or walls. That leaves the concrete and flooring alone.
