Lead Service Line Replacement in Coal Township, PA

Lead service lines were installed in many US cities through the early to mid 1900s, and some cities required them into the 1980s. A lead pipe is dull gray, soft enough to scratch with a key, shows shiny silver where scratched, and a magnet does not stick to it.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Coal Township, PA homeowners with plumbers who replace lead service lines. The usual replacement is Type K copper from the curb stop to a new shutoff inside the house. Pulling a new line through the old path with trenchless methods is often possible.

The EPA finalized its Lead and Copper Rule Improvements in 2024, which require most water systems to replace lead service lines over roughly the next ten years. Many cities run programs that cover part or all of the cost of the private side. Ask your water utility before you schedule, since the program may set the timing.

If your line is lead or galvanized downstream of lead, call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Lead Service Line Replacement in Coal Township, PA.

Talk to a person
Can a water line be replaced without digging up my yard?
Often, yes. Trenchless pipe bursting uses two small pits, one near the meter and one near the house, and pulls new HDPE through the old path. It works best on fairly straight runs.
How can I tell if I have polybutylene pipe?
Polybutylene is flexible gray or blue plastic, often stamped PB2110, found in many homes built from about 1978 to 1995. Check near the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house.
How do I check for a lead service line?
Find the pipe where it enters the house near the meter or main valve. Lead is dull gray, soft, scratches to shiny silver with a key, and a magnet will not stick. Your water utility may also have a record of your line material.
Who owns the water line between the street and my house?
In most areas the utility owns the line up to the meter or curb stop, and the homeowner owns the rest. Rules vary by city, so it is worth asking your water department.
Can slab leaks be fixed without breaking the floor?
Often the lines under the slab are abandoned and new PEX is rerouted through the attic or walls. That leaves the concrete and flooring alone.
