Chicago’s North Shore Water Line Repair

To properly fix a broken main water line, you will need a professional plumber from Biagi Plumbing to complete the repairs. Fixing a broken water main consists of quickly applying epoxy to the areas of the pipe that are cracked. The epoxy will start drying within one to two minutes once applied and takes about an hour to completely harden.

Water lines typically break due to excessive or uneven water pressure. Most pipes and faucets can only handle a certain level of water pressure before they start to leak. If you suspect that your main water line has a break, or that your water pressure may be too high, lean on the certified plumbers at Biagi Plumbing for help!

The time required to fix a main line break depends on the size of the break, where it is located, and what type of environment it’s in. Where the break is located is the most crucial aspect. With that said, water main breaks generally take around four to eight hours to repair. If your main water line has broken, call (847) 512-8921 immediately to make the proper repairs!

Absolutely! Signs that your water main has broken include; an unexplained puddle of water (usually underneath a sink or on the floor), random puddles of water in or around your yard, and water flooding in your street. If you notice any of these puddles in or around your property, call (847) 512-8921 for expert water line repair services right away.

To properly locate a water main leak, you will need a certified plumber from Biagi Plumbing to do so. Your plumber will locate your meter and check the leak indicator to see if it is moving. If the dial is in fact moving, it is highly likely that you have a water main leak.
