The most common cause of water line damage is tree root intrusion. Tree roots make their way into your water lines through tiny cracks and crevices in the pipes. They start to block the water flow through the pipes. Other common causes of water line damage include the following:
Improper Installation
When water lines aren’t professionally installed correctly, they will quickly break down.
Pest Damage
Little critters can wreak havoc on your water pipes.
Aging
Older water lines are prone to corrosion and rusting.
Ground Movement
Ground movement from construction puts excessive pressure on the water pipes. 
Our Pipe Pull Technique
Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Riverside uses high-tech plumbing methods to improve your plumbing. We often replace your water pipes using our Pipe Pull technique. This service includes replacing your damaged water line with a new pipe installation. We drill holes in the front and back of the pipe, using the existing water line as a guide to place the new water pipe. We install a new pipe that is chemical-resistant, code-compliant, and can last over 100 years.
Benefits of Professional Water Line Installation
A water line replacement is a significant job that must be performed correctly. We advise against trying to perform water line services without the proper training. Mistakes during a water line replacement service can cause water damage, mildew growth, code violations, and expensive renovation costs. Our service professionals are trained to safely and effectively install new water pipes. You can trust us to perform your water line replacement services quickly and effectively.
Water Line Repair vs. Replacement
Our service professionals will inspect your water line problems to determine if you need repairs or a replacement. We try our best to perform water line repairs but will determine if your existing water pipe can handle repairs. If it is more cost-effective to perform a water line replacement, we typically recommend new pipes over repairing pipes that constantly break. We offer preventive plumbing maintenance services to inspect your pipes and keep them in optimal health.
