From unexplained soggy lawns to steep water bills, hidden underground problems can reveal themselves in disruptive ways. At Massie Creek Plumbing, we specialize in utility excavation for water, sewer, and gas lines, helping homeowners and contractors uncover and resolve issues safely and efficiently.
A Real-World Example:
In a recent job, a homeowner contacted us after noticing significant water pooling in the yard. Our team diagnosed a failed underground water line, and within hours we were on-site with a plan.
Diagnosis First:
We used a camera/video inspection to identify the break and the extent of the damage. Whether it’s city water or a private well, our goal is to locate the issue accurately before digging begins.
The Excavation Process:
- Estimate & Scheduling: We provide upfront pricing and scheduling that works around your needs.
- Dig Smart: We dig a single trench whenever possible to reduce yard disruption.
- Replace & Restore: After repairing or replacing the line, we backfill the trench and mound the soil to allow natural settling.
What to Expect:
Yes, the trench may look like a grave for a day or two (we’re honest!), but this mounding prevents unsightly dips in your lawn. We leave final landscaping to the homeowner once the ground has fully settled.
Trusted for More Than Emergencies:
Our excavation services aren’t just for emergency repairs. Local builders also trust us to handle trenching and utility installations for small-to-mid-size remodels.
Fall & Winter Warning Signs:
- Frozen or burst lines
- Sudden water pressure changes
- Discolored water (especially in older homes with potential lead piping)
- Backups after heavy rain or freeze cycles
