Meter to House Water Line in Austin, TX

In most places, the utility owns the pipe up to the meter or curb stop, and the homeowner owns everything from there to the house. That private side is the stretch most people end up paying to replace.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Austin, TX homeowners with plumbers who replace the meter to house line. The work covers a new tap at the meter yoke or curb stop outlet, the run across the yard, a sleeve where the pipe passes through the foundation, and a new main shutoff inside.

Pipe size is the decision that gets skipped. A 3/4 inch line was fine for one bathroom in 1960. A house with three bathrooms, a lawn sprinkler and a tankless water heater often does better with 1 inch. Long runs lose pressure fast in small pipe.

Your meter box and permits are checked before any digging. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 about your meter to house water line replacement.

How it works

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Meter to House Water Line in Austin, TX.

Talk to a person
How do I know if my main water line needs replacement in Austin, TX?
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.
How can I tell if I have polybutylene pipe?
Polybutylene is flexible gray or blue plastic, often stamped PB2110, found in many homes built from about 1978 to 1995. Check near the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house.
Do I need a permit for water line replacement?
Most cities require a plumbing permit for service line replacement and whole house repiping, plus an inspection before the trench is backfilled or walls are closed.
Can slab leaks be fixed without breaking the floor?
Often the lines under the slab are abandoned and new PEX is rerouted through the attic or walls. That leaves the concrete and flooring alone.
