Our Services
A broken water line can be severe if not repaired properly and soon. You stand to have more damage to your foundation as more water seeps from the water line into the ground. Additionally, you stand to lose a lot of water, which can increase your utility bill.
What can make water line repair difficult is that it can be challenging to locate the source of the water line break or leak without the proper equipment. It could be at a joint or in the pipe itself. The cause of the break and leak is also not always easy to determine as it could have been punctured by tree roots or cracked due to freezing ground temperatures, or simply the water line system is old and has worn out.

Water Line Repair FAQs
A water line is an underground pipe that connects your property to the main municipal water supply. It carries fresh water into your home or business for everyday use.
Some common signs of a damaged or leaking water line include:
• A sudden increase in your monthly water bill
• Low water pressure
• Puddles or wet spots in your yard
• Unpleasant odors from the tap water
If you notice any of these signs, call us at Spotted Dog Excavating Sewer & Water Repair to assess your situation and mitigate further damage to the system or your home.
Water lines can get damaged due to a variety of reasons, such as:
• Natural wear and tear over time
• Extreme changes in temperature or weather conditions
• Tree root intrusion
• Corrosion from chemicals or minerals in the soil
Colorado weather can significantly impact water lines as the state experiences extreme temperature changes and unpredictable weather patterns. Freezing temperatures in winter can cause water inside the pipes to expand, potentially leading to cracks or bursts in the water line. Hot and dry summers can cause soil shrinkage and damage water lines. Additionally, heavy rain and flooding can also damage water lines. Regular maintenance and prompt repair, when needed, can help mitigate the impact of Colorado Springs weather on your water line.
Attempting to repair a damaged water line on your own is not recommended. Water lines are buried underground and often require specialized equipment and knowledge to access and repair properly. It is best to leave the job to the trained professionals at Spotted Dog Excavating Sewer & Water Repair, who have experience handling water line repair services.
The duration of a water line repair depends on the extent of damage and complexity. Sometimes repairs can be completed within a few hours, while more extensive repairs may take several days. After assessing the situation, your chosen service provider will be able to give you a more accurate estimate.
Your homeowner’s Insurance might cover water line repair costs if the damage is sudden and accidental. However, it is best to check with your insurance provider for specific coverage details. Regular maintenance and inspections can help prevent costly repairs and potential insurance claims in the long run.
To prevent potential damage to your water line in the future, it is best to:
• Regularly inspect for any signs of leaks or damage
• Avoid planting trees or large shrubs near the water line
• Call Spotted Dog at the first sign of trouble instead of ignoring it
