Water main repair and trenchless replacement in Bellevue, WA
Water main and water service line repair in Bellevue covers the supply line from the city meter at the curb to the home's main shutoff — a 30 to 100-foot run that is the homeowner's responsibility, not the city's. Failures most often occur in old galvanized or polybutylene lines from mid-century construction. Replacements use PEX-A or copper, with trenchless boring where yard geometry allows and open-trench where it doesn't.
What we fix
- Galvanized service lines (every home built before ~1970)
- Polybutylene 'PB' lines (common in 80s Sammamish/Issaquah builds — they fail)
- Wet spots in the yard between street and house
- Low pressure throughout the home
- Discolored or rust-tinted water
- Meter spinning when no fixtures are running
