## Broken Piping and Water Lines in Denver

Our crews troubleshoot and determine the cause of piping and water supply line issues, with the goal of addressing potential problems before they become serious leaking or broken pipe failures.

Alongside troubleshooting, we offer preventative techniques and maintenance so the water pipes keep functioning correctly and efficiently.

- Unknown line path before a dig, build, or landscaping project.
- Pressure or supply problems with no obvious source.
- Repeated failures that previous work did not resolve.
- Older systems being evaluated for preventative maintenance.

## Locating First, Then the Right Solution

Locating establishes where the line actually runs, how deep it sits, and what else is underground near it. That is what keeps the excavation small and in the right place.

From there we present the repair, installation, and replacement options that fit the finding, with the aim of minimizing the overall cost of the water line problem.

## How Locating and Troubleshooting Works

1. **Describe the Issue** We review the symptoms and the history of the line and property.
2. **Locate the Line** Equipment establishes the path, depth, and nearby underground utilities.
3. **Diagnose the Cause** We identify what is actually driving the pressure, supply, or leak problem.
4. **Present the Options** You get repair, maintenance, and replacement options with the tradeoffs explained.

## Locating Keeps the Project Contained

The cost of locating is small relative to the cost of digging in the wrong place, cutting a surface that did not need cutting, or repairing a problem that was never the cause.

We quote the repair after locating and diagnosis, not before.

## Frequently asked questions

**What does water line locating involve?**

Locating establishes where the underground line runs, how deep it is, and what other utilities sit nearby, so any excavation is accurate and contained.

**Can troubleshooting prevent a future break?**

Often, yes. Identifying a developing problem early, along with preventative maintenance, is usually cheaper than responding to a full failure later.

**Who is responsible for the water service line?**

Denver Water states that property owners are responsible for the service line and meter pit at their service address. That means most underground service line repairs and replacements fall to the property owner, not the utility. Denver Sewer and Water is a private, family owned and operated company. We are not Denver Water or the City and County of Denver.

**Are you Denver Water or the city?**

No. Denver Sewer and Water is a private, family owned and operated company. We are not Denver Water or the City and County of Denver. For utility accounts and billing, contact your local utility directly.

**How do I get started?**

Describe what the property is doing. We will schedule an evaluation, locate and inspect the line, and explain the repair or replacement options before any work is scheduled. Call (720) 935-6221.
