What's usually behind it in Sassafras
On larger Sassafras blocks, the water service can run a long way from the meter, so we locate the break precisely before digging.
A burst pipe can do thousands of dollars of damage in an hour. Shut the water off at the meter and call us. We isolate the line, repair or replace the damaged section and pressure-test the system before we leave. For Sassafras customers, that usually means same-day service.
Many Sassafras properties sit on acreage, often with tank water, LPG and septic or long sewer connections that need a plumber who knows rural systems.
