Main Water Line Replacement in Saint Louis, MO

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 Saint Louis, MO 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 Saint Louis, MO.

Talk to a person
How do I know if my main water line needs replacement in Saint Louis, MO?
Look for a wet patch in the yard that never dries, a meter that moves with every fixture closed, low pressure at the hose bib, or rusty water. If the line is galvanized, lead or polybutylene, replacement usually beats repair.
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.
Will my walls be torn up during a repipe in Saint Louis, MO?
No. Plumbers cut small access holes where pipes turn or connect, then patch, tape, mud and texture them. Closets and cabinet backs are used where possible.
Why is my water pressure low only in some rooms?
When pressure is fine at the hose bib but weak upstairs or at one fixture, rust scale inside galvanized pipe is the usual cause. A gauge test and a check of the pressure reducing valve come first.
Should I replace my main shutoff valve during a repipe?
Yes. An old gate valve often seizes or fails to close fully. A full port quarter turn ball valve is a small addition to a repipe or water line replacement job.
