Water & Sewer Line Repairs
Who is Responsible?
The homeowner is responsible for water and wastewater lines that connect to the City's main lines.
City main lines are located in utility easements along property lines.
Any repair and/or damage caused by water and sewer line breaks in the house or under the yard are the responsibility of the homeowner.
For most consumers, coverage for sewer-related problems must be purchased either as a separate product or as an addition to a homeowners' policy. Homeowners are encouraged to review specific insurance needs associated with risks from water line damage with their insurance provider.
