A
burst water line can be both
confusing and stressful as there are
many factors to consider when
determining if there is a leak,
where the leak is and how to repair
the leak. The most common sign of a
burst water line is when you can
physically see water around your
home, flooding or a wet basement and
through your foundation wall.
If you see water coming up in-front
of your home, it does not
necessarily mean that the leak is
coming from you water line. Water
travels and seeks the weakest point
in the ground as its source to exit
to the surface; it is common for a
water main leak to travel 10’-20’
from the source of the leak.
Plumbing problems can be caused by a
leak or break in your main
waterline, cracked damaged or tree
roots in your sewer lines, failure
of your drain tiles and blocked
connections between your home and
the water line system. These can
cause major problems with water
getting into your basement or crawl
space, low water pressure, backups
and over flowing of your water line.

Burst Pipes in
the water system is one of the most common
plumbing problems both in the home and the
public system. Several things can cause Burst
Pipes, the main one been freezing conditions.
Some other reasons why we need to call an
emergency plumber can be pipe failure due to
age, misuse or damage. The pipe can be put under
a great pressure through the system and any
fault in the piping will be exposed over time
and broken down.
The effects of
burst pipes can be dramatic and devastating all
at the same time. A burst pipe on the main
system can cause damage to property, put people
out of homes and even close an entire area of a
town and roads for a number of days.
This can leave
people without water and even last for days.
