"Immediately responded to schedule appointment and friendly. Technician was helpful with an estimate and quickly replaced the faulty expansion tank. However, the amount of communication by phone and text from the dispatch was on the verge of nagging and the tech cancelled the appointment the morning of. Got rescheduled and it worked out though. "

"Spoke with owner Ross about replacing two water heaters. One was showing wet stains bottom. So I decided to replace both, since they were both about 12 yrs old. I decided to replace my Bradform Whites with a more high tech water heater. I picked Lowe's AO Signature 500, which is their top electric heater. Has leak detection shut off, higher heating element, vacation mode, wifi enabled etc. Labor estimate about $1400 to replace both, and I had the water heaters onsite for install. Can't say enough how Professional his plumbing crew is. Jack and Chris did an outstanding job. They kept me informed throughout the process, and kept my home clean at all times. The install projects came out great and price as agreed. Other plumbing estimates were higher, especially comparing it to those Big Box stores. Will certainly be doing with Ross again in the future. FYI, look for a company that is willing to be open to use other brand name water heaters and not just what they trying to sell you. "

FAQs for water main install, replace or repair projects in Portland, OR

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.
