"After many others tried and failed, Larry Overton found the source of a leak in my reverse osmosis under-sink system. He also replaced my refrigerator filter that others had only made worse when trying to do it. He is very knowledgeable and such a nice, honest, man. His rates are very reasonable. I will always use him in the future."

Water main install, replace or repairs FAQs

Whether you need a permit depends on your local regulations. Always check with your municipality before beginning the installation. Most contractors will handle the permitting process for you.

If your backflow preventer fails, dangerous contaminants can enter your clean water supply, posing serious health risks. You may notice signs like visible leaks, a sudden drop in water pressure, slow drainage, unpleasant odors, or discolored water. If you experience any of these symptoms, contact a professional immediately.

Signs of a failing backflow preventer include visible leaks, a sudden drop in water pressure, sluggish drainage, unpleasant odors, and discolored water. If you notice any of these issues, it's important to have your system inspected by a professional.

You might need a backflow preventer if you have features like irrigation systems, pools, or other water elements that could contaminate your water supply. Commercial and industrial properties are required to have backflow preventers due to higher contamination risks.

A backflow preventer stops water in your main supply from reversing flow and contaminating clean water. A backwater valve is installed in your drainage system to block sewage from backing up during heavy rainfall or overflow. Both devices protect your home but serve different purposes.

The time it takes to install a backflow preventer depends on the type of system. A plumber can typically install a simple backflow preventer, like those for a garden hose or appliance, in less than an hour. Installing a backflow preventer for a complex system can take up to a full day.
