ATLANTA WATERLINE REPAIR PLUMBER

Is your water bill three to four times higher than usual?
Have you spotted a wet, muddy area in your yard, even
though it hasn't been raining?It's time to call atlanta plumbing. Do you notice a lack of
water pressure in our home? If you answered yes to any
of these questions, you probably need to call an Atlanta Plumber to replace your
home's main waterline. If you have noticed any of these
issues, chances are the main waterline from the
water meter to your home has cracked, broken, or split.
This comes from age, root growth, faulty piping, or even
improper initial installation. Often times, the only noticeable
thing is an increase in your water bill. Water is not
always visible in your yard due to the leak, and pressure
issues are even more rare. But when a $35 water bill becomes
a $100, or even $500, it's time to call the Atlanta Plumbing Service you can trust.
Your home's main waterline extends from your water meter all the way
to your home, entering in one of several places: through
a crawlspace access, a basement wall, or penetrating up
through the concrete slab, depending on how your home
is built and who the Atlanta Plumber was who installed it. The waterline is generally 3/4" or 1"
in diameter, depending on the size of your home. It can
be made of one of several materials: PVC, copper, polybutylene,
polyethylene, galvanized steel, or in rare cases, CPVC.
Each of these materials presents its own set of pros and
cons for you the owner and us, your Atlanta Plumber.
PVC is the common white plastic pipe you and most Atlanta Plumbers are probably
familiar with. It offers low costs, coupled with the ease
of installation. However, it has a tendency to break with
extreme temperature changes. Copper is a very strong and
somewhat flexible metal that is a popular and proven material.
It has a long life span and offers the benefit of strength.
It is, however, expensive, and in some cases will oxidize
in the ground if certain chemicals are present in the
soil. Our Atlanta Plumbing crew has years of experience replacing these lines. Atlanta plumber service stands behind our work and truly believes in a job well done.
Galvanized steel is common in much older homes, and as
such, has its own set of problems. Atlanta Plumbers can no longer use this because after a number of years,
it rusts heavily, crumbling and eventually rusting through.
CPVC is a form of PVC used for hot water applications,
and was never truly meant to be installed underground.
It will survive, however, for many years without problems.
Polybutylene is the blue plastic waterline that was installed
in millions of homes across the U.S., only to fail extensively
and cost its manufacturer billions in class-action lawsuits.
Pinholes, breaks, cracks, and complete failures are very
common with blue and grey poly. The most commonly understood
cause behind its massive failure was an over-sensitivity
to the chlorine in our water.
Our atlanta plumbing installation process for our waterlines is an inexpensive,
innovative, and often a mess-free way of replacing your
current service line. Whenever possible, we use trenchless,
rod-boring technology to install your new waterline without
digging up your yard. A small access hole at each end
of the waterline is often all that's necessary for your
complete installation. Due to some yard layouts or landscaping
placements, atlanta plumber trenching is often necessary. But usually,
we will leave your home, water line installed, and you
will never even know we were there. We also use brass
fittings at connecting points of your new water line to
ensure strength and longevity, as opposed to plastic fittings
commonly found on older lines. The best part is, even
with the newest technology, highest quality materials,
most experienced atlanta plumber crew, the longest warranty and
quickest service, we still manage to maintain the best
and most competitive prices, as well as matching or beating
any estimate from our competitors on your atlanta plumber waterline repair.
