Frequently Asked Questions

How to repair a main water line leak?

Repairing a main water line leak requires expert assessment and the right repair method. The process typically involves:

  1. Leak detection: using specialist equipment to locate the exact point of failure
  2. Isolating the water supply: the affected section is shut off to prevent further water loss
  3. Excavation (if needed): if the pipe is underground, careful digging may be required
  4. Repair or pipe replacement: depending on the damage, we may seal the leak, install a pipe liner or replace the affected section
  5. Testing & restoration: once repaired, we pressure test the system before restoring normal service

Attempting DIY repairs on a commercial water main can cause further damage. For professional repairs, trust our specialist team to handle it quickly and efficiently. 

How long to does it take to fix a water main break?

The repair time for a water main break depends on factors such as pipe size, location and severity of damage.

  • Minor leaks can often be repaired within a few hours
  • More complex repairs may take several hours to a full day
  • Emergency repairs are prioritised to restore service as quickly as possible

At Total Water Solutions, we act fast to minimise downtime and prevent further water loss. If your business is affected by a water main break, contact us for urgent assistance.

How do you know if you have a water leak?

Water leaks aren’t always visible, but there are key signs to look out for:

  • Unexpectedly high water bills: a sudden increase could indicate a hidden leak
  • Damp patches or water stains: these often appear on walls, ceilings or floors
  • Low water pressure: if taps or appliances have reduced flow, a leak could be the cause
  • Unusual sounds: hissing or dripping noises when no water is in use can suggest a hidden leak
  • Soft or sunken ground: patches of unusually damp soil or pooling water outside may indicate an underground leak

If you suspect a leak on your business premises, contact our experts for a professional inspection
