Main Water Line Replacement in Windsor, IL

The main water line is the pipe that runs from the meter or curb stop to the shutoff valve inside your house. When it fails, everything downstream fails with it. SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Windsor, IL homeowners with plumbers who replace that line end to end.

Most older service lines are 3/4 inch galvanized steel, early polyethylene or, in some cities, lead. The usual replacement is 1 inch Type K copper or HDPE CTS tubing, which gives a busy house more flow at the far fixtures. The new line goes below your local frost depth and gets a fresh shutoff where it enters the wall.

Signs the main line is done: a wet stripe in the lawn that never dries, a meter that spins with every tap closed, or brown water after the street has been flushed.

The crew calls 811 for utility locates before digging, then trenches or bores depending on the yard. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 to talk through your water line replacement.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Main Water Line Replacement in Windsor, IL.

Talk to a person
Is PEX or copper better for repiping?
PEX costs less, needs fewer wall openings and does not corrode. Copper handles heat well and lasts in friendly water but can pit in aggressive water. Many homes with past pinhole leaks choose PEX.
How deep is a water service line buried?
It has to sit below the local frost line. That can be 12 inches in warm southern areas and 5 feet or more in the northern states. Your local code sets the exact depth.
How can I tell if I have polybutylene pipe?
Polybutylene is flexible gray or blue plastic, often stamped PB2110, found in many homes built from about 1978 to 1995. Check near the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house.
How do I check for a lead service line?
Find the pipe where it enters the house near the meter or main valve. Lead is dull gray, soft, scratches to shiny silver with a key, and a magnet will not stick. Your water utility may also have a record of your line material.
What causes pinhole leaks in copper pipe?
Pinholes usually come from pitting corrosion caused by water chemistry, such as low pH or high chlorine or chloramine, or by high flow speed in small pipe. Repeat pinholes mean the whole run is thinning.
