Top 6 Signs You Need Miami, FL Water Line Repair Services
For some homes, the main water line is buried underground. This makes it challenging to notice any problems. However, there are some key signs to look for.
- If you have yellow or otherwise discolored water in your home, this represents an emergency, and you should call our team immediately to schedule an appointment.
- If you notice cracks in your foundation, it could be the result of a slow leak from your main water line.
- If you notice changes in your water pressure inside, for example, if you turn on your sinks or showers and the water pressure remains much less than normal or disappears entirely before slowly trickling back on, call our team to take a look.
- If there are puddles in your yard or otherwise unexplained pools of water right outside the home, this could indicate a leak.
- If you hear hissing or bubbling in your pipes, call our team immediately.

4 Common Causes of Water Line Repairs in Miami, FL
Miami homes can face water line damage because of things like tree roots, ground movement, mineral buildup, high water pressure, or regular wear and tear.
Tree Roots
While Miami has fewer trees than other large cities in Florida, the city has an average density of 92 trees per acre, which means there are a lot of tree roots underground. If those tree roots are within 10 feet of your water line, they can easily make their way through the pipe, causing leaks, cracks, and damage.
Ground Movement
Miami, like most parts of Florida, has soil below the water table, which means that even homes on concrete slab foundations will settle over time because of gravitational forces that pull them down. This settling can cause shifts in the ground that result in problems with your plumbing. If this happens, you might need water line repairs in Miami, FL.
High Water Pressure
Modern homes are built with water pressure regulators, and these regulate the water pressure that flows through your pipes, ensuring that the pressure is never so high that it causes damage or erosion.
However, older homes in Miami might need water line repairs because they were not built with a proper water pressure regulator, or their current regulator could be old enough to malfunction.
Wear and Tear
Over time, water lines are subject to regular wear and tear. This wear and tear can come in the form of mineral buildup from things like copper, magnesium, iron, or calcium. This type of mineral buildup results in a lot of hard water and causes clogs much the same way as cholesterol can clog your arteries.
If you have hard water, Service Minds Benjamin Franklin can offer water softener installation. If you have damage from older water lines, we can get the necessary repairs done quickly and efficiently or recommend replacements when the time is right.
