Signs You May Need Your Water Line Repaired in Gastonia
If you’re only dealing with low water pressure in one appliance, don’t worry! It might be something smaller, like an issue with that appliance. Diagnosing water line damage is more than just noticing low water pressure (and when we say, “low water pressure,” it’s not subtle—you would notice it). Other warning signs are:
Your Water or Electric Bill Increased
It’s normal to use a little more water some months, but if you’ve noticed a big jump in your water bill, it’s time to call a plumber. If you’ve got a leaking water pipe and you’re on city water, the city might even call you to let you know something weird is going on with your water bill. If you’re on well water, you use electricity to get water. So, if you’ve got a leaky well water line, your electric bill will go up.
If you’re able to locate your water meter (it’s a grey or green box usually by your mailbox), you might notice the leak detector spinning even while you don’t have the water running.
Wet Spots in the Yard, House, or Driveway
That constantly squishy spot in your yard might seem annoying, but it’s trying to tell you something important! When you’ve got a wet area in your yard, house, or driveway that never seems to dry up, odds are, you’re dealing with a water line leak.
You May Hear Your Pressure Switch Clicking on and off (Well Water Only)
If your home relies on well water, your well has a pressure switch that signals the well pump to start or stop pumping. If your water lines are broken, they’re leaking water, which can cause your pressure switch to keep clicking on and off.
What to Expect During a Water Line Repair
If an alarm is going off in your head right now after reading all this—don’t panic! Maybe you have all the signs of water line damage, and we know that can feel scary. Our plumbers see this kind of thing every day, and they know exactly what to do to get your water flowing the right way again!
When you call, text, or message us online, we’ll send one of our pros to your place to get to the root of things. Your plumber may use leak detection equipment to help isolate the problem area.

Once you make your decision, we’ll work on getting things fixed up.
Is It Better to Do a Repair or a Replacement?
Water is lazy. It’s gonna take the path of least resistance. Sometimes, if there’s a leak in your home or under your driveway, the water will come out somewhere else (like in the yard). This makes it really tricky to pinpoint exactly where the leak is. If the water seems to be coming out of a pipe in your home, a repair might be a better option. If the pooling water is out in the yard, we might recommend replacement.
If only part of your water line is cracked and leaking, we can use a few different techniques to try pinpointing to location of the leak. If we find it and it’s just the one spot leaking, we can work on repairing it. If your water line has damage in multiple places or if your home uses old, problematic pipes, we might recommend a repipe (also called a water line replacement) instead.
