"I recently had the pleasure of working with J & O Plumbing, and I couldn’t be happier with the service! From the moment I called, they were prompt, professional, and courteous. They arrived right on time, quickly diagnosed the issue, and explained everything clearly before starting the work. The repair was done efficiently and with great attention to detail. What really stood out was how clean they left the area with no mess at all, which is always appreciated. Their pricing was fair and transparent, with no surprises. It’s rare to find tradespeople who are this reliable and respectful of your time and home. I’ll definitely be calling them again for any future plumbing needs and highly recommend them to anyone looking for honest, quality service."

"Bill, the Owner came to my house the same day, which I really appreciated since I was without water. He did a quick fix with the pipe because my home water system broke and blew releasing a strong current of water that left a minor flood on that side of the basement until I turned the water off"

"Highly recommend Stephen. I had a clogged kitchen sink that wouldn't drain despite using a plunger, Drain-O, a 25' snake, and everything I could think of using. I called numerous plumbers and Stephen was one of the few who was able to give me a quote (other quotes I received were at least twice as much) and showed up first thing the next morning. He was incredibly thorough with his work, running multiple tests, and not leaving my home until he was 100% sure the clog had been fully cleared. On top of all of this he ended up charging me less than quoted and even cleaned up around the sink. If you need a plumber, definitely give Stephen a call. Very polite, professional and incredibly thorough."

"They had to dig out and replace a section of the cast iron drain out through the fieldstone foundation of my house and added an exterior access clean-out. They came on time, were courteous, did a fine job, and cleaned up afterwards. They also charged me less than the estimate! I was very pleased... I couldn’t 't ask for better."

"I called Scott's plumbing on a tuesday night, told him what was happening and he bought the water heater the next day (wednesday) and he was at my house at 7:20a.m. on thursday and was done at 8:15 in time for me to get to work on time. I did explain to him I had to be in work by 9:30am and he accomodated me. He did excellent work in timely manor and left no mess. I was really happy with the price because I did call the other 2 companies suggested by this website and he was the best in price also. I would highly recommend Scott's plumbing."

"Dave was extremely helpful and super nice (and patient). We had some delays in our overall project and he continue to connect with me via phone and check in. The work in the basement was done quickly and neatly. I am so impressed with the Watchman team from Doreen in the office, Dave and the person who did the installation. You will not be disappointed with Watchman!!!"

FAQs for water main install, replace or repair projects in Exeter, RI

If you notice puddles or standing water in your yard, a sudden drop in water pressure, cracks forming in your foundation, frequent clogs in your plumbing fixtures, or water that looks or smells unusual, you might have a leak in your main water line. These signs mean it's time to call a professional to evaluate the issue and prevent further damage.

A professional water main inspection is a comprehensive evaluation performed by a licensed plumber who checks every section of your plumbing system. The inspection costs $165 and uses advanced diagnostic techniques to identify hidden leaks or wear. This service clarifies the exact condition of your water main, enabling precise repairs that prevent future damage and ensure the overall health of your plumbing system.

Protect your water main by scheduling a cleaning and inspection every two to five years. The average cost of a sewer line cleaning is $400. It’s also important to never dig in your yard without first calling the dig line (811) to ensure you don't accidentally hit the water or sewer lines. Watch for soil erosion, low water pressure, or wet spots in your yard, and take immediate action if you suspect a leak. Remember, the longer you leave it, the worse the problem gets and the more costly it is to fix.

When properly maintained, your water main is engineered to remain functional for 50 years or longer. A durable water service in excellent condition should consistently perform without major issues for half a century. In contrast, metal pipes exposed to acidic soil corrode faster, whereas modern plastic pipes resist corrosion and function for decades beyond metal alternatives. Regular maintenance and inspections are essential for confirming your system’s longevity.

No, homeowners insurance does not cover the cost to repair a water main. Insurers fund only sudden, unforeseen events like a burst pipe and exclude gradual issues or normal wear and tear. Damage resulting from leaks, such as mold remediation or property claims, is not covered. It is essential to contact your insurance provider immediately to confirm your policy’s details and any potential adjustments needed.
