We locate the break before we open the yard, and we do not replace a line that only needs a repair. The private water service is the line from the house to the curb stop or meter. Wet spots in the yard, a sudden drop in pressure, or a meter that spins with every fixture off usually point here, not to a single faucet. Galvanized and older poly services fail from the inside. A patch on one leak does not fix the rest of that run. We replace the private side when the pipe is done. A single isolated break on otherwise sound pipe is a [water and sewer](/services/water-sewer) repair, not a full replacement. Village-owned mains, meter pits the water department owns, and the street-side of the curb are not ours. We will say which side we think you are on before anyone digs. Call [(630) 251-5184](tel:+16302515184) with what you are seeing in the yard or at the meter. ## Communities we serve We handle this work across Chicagoland, and you can call if your community is nearby. - [Wood Dale](/service-area/wood-dale.md) - [Itasca](/service-area/itasca.md) - [Bensenville](/service-area/bensenville.md) - [Bloomingdale](/service-area/bloomingdale.md) Call [(630) 251-5184](tel:+16302515184). ## Sitemap See the full [sitemap](/sitemap.md) for all pages.
