A Localized Repair at the Meter
On this job, we removed the leaking fittings and installed a new ball valve, a type of shutoff valve.
Not every yard leak needs a new line. Finding exactly what is leaking first keeps the repair to the part that needs it.
Finding the Source of a Yard Leak
A wet area in the yard, water near the meter, or a higher water bill can all be signs of a leak. Checking the meter is one way to confirm water is being used when nothing is running.
See our guide on reading your water meter to find a leak and our leak detection service.

Water Line Repair in Terrell Hills: FAQs
Do you repair water lines in Terrell Hills?
Yes. Terrell Hills is within our regular service area, and we find and repair water line leaks there. Availability depends on technician scheduling, location, access, and current call volume, so please call to confirm for your address.
What is a ball valve?
A ball valve is a type of shutoff valve. A quarter turn of the handle opens or closes the flow of water through the line.
Does a yard leak mean the whole water line needs replacing?
Not necessarily. Many leaks come from a fitting or valve that can be repaired on its own. On the job above, we removed the leaking fittings and installed a new ball valve, a type of shutoff valve. Finding exactly what is leaking first keeps the repair to the part that needs it.
What should I do if I see water near my meter?
Note where the water is and whether it is steady, and check whether any fixtures in the home are running. Checking the meter can also show whether water is being used when nothing is on. Then call us so the source can be found before any repair is planned.
Are you licensed?
