Water Line Repair & Installation in Bessemer, AL

Your home or business gets its water through a single service line from the meter to the building. When that line breaks, you lose pressure or water entirely – and a leak underground can quietly run up your bill for months. Alabama Plumbing Services repairs, replaces and installs water lines for homes, shops, barns and commercial buildings in Bessemer, McCalla, Hueytown and the surrounding area.

• A sudden change in your water bill.
• Wet or extra-green spots in the lawn, or water bubbling up near the meter.
• A hissing or whistling sound when water runs.
• The meter turning with everything off.
• A sudden drop in water pressure or brown water.
• Damp spots or mildew on walls or ceilings near where the line enters the house.

We locate the leak or break, dig only where needed and repair the damaged section. When the line is old galvanized steel or early polybutylene, or it has failed in several places, replacing it is usually the better investment. New lines are run in durable PEX or PVC at the proper depth, with a new shut-off valve at the house, and pressure-tested before the trench is closed.

Sometimes a water line has to be moved – a new addition, driveway, pool or garage is going over it, a tree’s roots are crushing it, or a line under the slab keeps leaking. Rerouting runs a new line along a better path and abandons the old one. It is often faster and less disruptive than repairing a line in a bad spot, and it ends the problem for good.

We install water lines to new homes, additions, detached garages and workshops, and lines to yard hydrants and outdoor faucets for gardens and animals. If your home has old or leaking pipes inside as well, see our repiping service.

A broken main line is never a planned expense – in-house financing is available on approved repairs.
