Yard Leak on Copper Line
Located and dug up yard leak on copper line. Replaced leaking pipe with PEX.
We arrived and customer showed us the area where the leak was present. In order to see the piping, we hand dug to inspect the issue and give proper pricing. We found a 1/2" copper line looping into the slab with a pinhole leak in the side of the copper. After customer approved pricing, we cut out the existing copper and soldered on a 1/2" sweat by PEX adapter on the house side of the repair. Digging further back we found another PEX adapter and cut it out to tie onto the existing PEX with a 1/2" PEX coupling. We then put in new 1/2" PEX to repair the cut out area. Finally, we leak tested and no leaks were present at this time.
