Utah Trenchless, a sewer and drain specialist based in Lehi, is drawing attention to warning signs that may indicate trouble with an underground water main or water service line. The company is broadening its educational outreach to help homeowners recognize water line problems before they escalate into major damage as aging infrastructure and shifting soil conditions affect properties across Utah County.
Water service lines carry fresh water from the municipal main into a home, and failures in these lines often go unnoticed until significant damage occurs. According to Utah Trenchless, several indicators commonly point to an underlying issue. A sudden and unexplained increase in a monthly water bill frequently signals a hidden leak underground. Other symptoms include a noticeable drop in water pressure throughout the home, discolored or rusty water coming from faucets, and the sound of running water when all fixtures are turned off.
Persistent wet or soggy areas in a yard, pooling water near the foundation, and patches of grass that appear greener or grow faster than surrounding areas can also reveal a break in a buried line. Additionally, cracks in a driveway or foundation and unexplained dips in the landscape may indicate that water is eroding soil beneath the surface.
Spencer Ruff, President and Owner of Utah Trenchless, stated that many homeowners assume a water line problem will be obvious, but the signs are often subtle at first. Ruff noted that a slightly higher water bill or a soft spot in the yard can be the first clue that something underground needs attention and that earlier inspection provides more options for the homeowner.
Through its water line services, the company applies trenchless technology to the repair and replacement of water mains and service lines. This approach addresses damaged lines without the extensive digging associated with traditional excavation, which limits disruption to landscaping, driveways, and other property features. The company emphasizes that professional diagnostics help identify the location and severity of a leak to determine if a trenchless repair is appropriate.
Locally owned by Spencer and Kourtney Ruff, Utah Trenchless serves Lehi and surrounding communities throughout Utah County, Salt Lake County, and the Wasatch Front. The company provides various solutions, including trenchless sewer repair, sewer line repair and replacement, sewer line inspection, drain cleaning, septic service, air and hydro utility locating, and trenchless pipe lining.
