Main Water Line Replacement in Los Angeles, CA

The main water line is the pipe that runs from the meter or curb stop to the shutoff valve inside your house. When it fails, everything downstream fails with it. SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Los Angeles, CA homeowners with plumbers who replace that line end to end.

Most older service lines are 3/4 inch galvanized steel, early polyethylene or, in some cities, lead. The usual replacement is 1 inch Type K copper or HDPE CTS tubing, which gives a busy house more flow at the far fixtures. The new line goes below your local frost depth and gets a fresh shutoff where it enters the wall.

Signs the main line is done: a wet stripe in the lawn that never dries, a meter that spins with every tap closed, or brown water after the street has been flushed.

The crew calls 811 for utility locates before digging, then trenches or bores depending on the yard. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 to talk through your water line replacement.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Main Water Line Replacement in Los Angeles, CA.

Talk to a person
How do I check for a lead service line?
Find the pipe where it enters the house near the meter or main valve. Lead is dull gray, soft, scratches to shiny silver with a key, and a magnet will not stick. Your water utility may also have a record of your line material.
Who owns the water line between the street and my house?
In most areas the utility owns the line up to the meter or curb stop, and the homeowner owns the rest. Rules vary by city, so it is worth asking your water department.
Will my walls be torn up during a repipe in Los Angeles, CA?
No. Plumbers cut small access holes where pipes turn or connect, then patch, tape, mud and texture them. Closets and cabinet backs are used where possible.
What causes pinhole leaks in copper pipe?
Pinholes usually come from pitting corrosion caused by water chemistry, such as low pH or high chlorine or chloramine, or by high flow speed in small pipe. Repeat pinholes mean the whole run is thinning.
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.
