Main Water Line Installations

 Installing a new main water service begins with careful planning before any excavation takes place. We first locate where the existing water service enters your home and identify the connection point at the municipal water main or meter. This allows us to evaluate the route, identify any obstacles, and prepare an accurate estimate for the installation. Once the proposal is approved, Red Fox Plumbing coordinates utility locates to mark underground gas, electric, communications, sewer, and other buried utilities, ensuring the new water service can be installed safely, efficiently, and with minimal disruption to your property. 

 Once the utility locates have been completed, we carefully excavate the new water service route while protecting marked underground utilities and minimizing disturbance to your property. The new water line is installed using high-quality, code-compliant materials and proper installation techniques to ensure long-term reliability. Every connection is made with precision, the piping is properly bedded and supported, and the completed system is thoroughly pressure tested before being placed into service. At Red Fox Plumbing, we take pride in installing water service lines that are built to provide decades of dependable performance. 

 Although inspections are not typically required for most residential water service replacements, Red Fox Plumbing completes every installation to meet applicable plumbing codes and industry best practices. Before the excavation is backfilled, we thoroughly pressure test the new water line and inspect our work to ensure every connection is secure and performing as intended. We then carefully backfill and compact the trench to properly support the new piping while minimizing future settling. While excavation will naturally disturb the landscape, we take pride in restoring your property to the best condition reasonably possible before the job is complete.
