Oviedo plumbing leaks can pop up anywhere and can be aggravating. Many times they happen at the worst time such as after hours or on the weekend. One of the most common Oviedo plumbing leaks is a broken water main and this can be caused by many different things such as a tree planted too close to your water main or the meter box getting parked on because it is too close to the driveway. Most people dont even realize that the black rectangular box in front of the house is the water meter and when parking on it, it can cause the box to be pushed down and crush the pipe. The best way to prevent this is to know were your meter box is and if it is located close to the driveway paint it a color so people see it or better yet put some type of barracade around it.
If you have trees or shrubs planted by the meter this can also cause a problem many people will plant shrubs around the meter box to hide the box but this over the years causes major issues for the water line and is the number one reason for Oviedo plumbing leaks on your water main. Many times the water main has to be replaced because of shrubs being planted in the wrong spot. Plumbing leaks on your water main can be stressful because many times you can’t shut the water off because it’s before your house. The only way to shut it off is at the meter which most people do not know how to do this.
