Contract #.: 14PP-06WS

We are committed to working efficiently to manage and lessen the inconvenience, and complete the work as quickly as possible.

Substandard Water Service Replacement
A water service is the pipe that connects your house to the City’s water distribution system to deliver water into your home. There are two portions to the water service – the privately-owned portion and the publicly-owned portion.
The privately-owned portion runs from the property line to the home and is owned by the property owner; the City-owned portion runs from the property line to the watermain and is owned by the City.
The City will replace the City-owned portion of any substandard water service connection discovered during construction. The City is not responsible for replacing the privately-owned portion of the water service.
Your water service may be considered substandard if:
