Broken water main
Water main lines can develop leaks at the shutoff valve or in the pipe itself over time. Sometimes it can be a slow leak which was the case with this Temecula home. This slow water main leak turned the front yard into a swampy mess! The problem was a 1" PVC ball valve had developed a leak and needed to be replaced. We had to dig up the lawn and access the pipe, cut out the old leaky valve and install a new one. If you have a soft muddy section of lawn or a planter box that's always saturated chances are you might have a water main leak. A small leak can bleed out several thousand gallons of water a year!
