Main Water Line Replacement in Houston, TX

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 Houston, TX 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 Houston, TX.

Talk to a person
What is the difference between water line replacement and whole house repiping?
Water line replacement covers the buried service pipe from the meter or curb stop to the house. Whole house repiping replaces the supply lines inside the walls. Older homes often need both because the pipes are the same age.
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.
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.
Why is my water pressure low only in some rooms?
When pressure is fine at the hose bib but weak upstairs or at one fixture, rust scale inside galvanized pipe is the usual cause. A gauge test and a check of the pressure reducing valve come first.
