Water Line Service & Repairs

In need of a repair or installation?
Save time, call Prime.

Water Mains

Water mains are the main artery of most water distribution systems. They are highly pressurized, large pipes that carry water from a distribution facility on to your home or business.

Water Service Lines

Water is supplied to your home or business via service lines. Although these lines connect directly to water mains, they are your responsibility. Often times, water pressure issues and discoloration are due to bad water lines. Cracks caused by weather or settling are usually the cause of most problems. Prime Plumbing is able to assess your situation, and make the proper repairs. We always try to avoid major excavations but if your circumstances call for it, we have the tools and skills needed to handle the issue.

Polybutylene Blue Pipe

A specific type of water line used from the 1970s to the 1990s, this type of pipe is known for its propensity to fail. Chemicals inside the pipe react with chemicals like chlorine, which is found in most city water systems, cause the pipe to degrade over time, and eventually rupture. Numerous class action lawsuits have been brought on against PB-1. We do not service Polybutylene but we do replace it with High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) which is now standard in the industry.

Copper vs HDPE

Although we believe that HDPE is perfectly fine for all applications, copper is sometimes preferred or requested. Whether you choose HDPE or Copper, your system will last 30+ years. Some believe that copper has more longevity, but it also comes at a higher price tag. Both systems are resistant to chlorine, with copper having the slight edge. Our technicians are trained in both systems.

Prime Reviews

“Nothing but good words to say about the team at Prime Plumbing. I had a severe leak in my kitchen. Previous contractor did not install my new sink and garbage disposal correctly. I called Prime, they sent Ryan (just excellent) and he clearly explained what the problem was and provided several solutions. I agreed to the terms and Ryan did a bang up job with the repair and clean up. I will definitely call Prime for my plumbing needs.”

“Prime Plumbing LLC could not have been more accommodating for us. Tony was our service tech and he was very knowledgeable and professional. The owners of Prime Plumbing went far beyond to help us during a frustrating time. This company is excellent and I would highly recommend them. My sincere appreciation to their entire team.”

“The service we received was beyond our highest expectations. We made a last-minute call expecting to have a technician arrive the next day, but we’re lucky enough to have a technician in the area. He was appropriately covered for COVID-19, extremely personable, professional and very knowledgeable about our make of jacuzzi tub. We received a prompt diagnosis and on the spot repair with minimal interruption of our household.”
