Summary

A homeowner in Coatesville needed a new water service line installed from the house to the curb stop. The existing copper line was due for replacement, and the project called for careful excavation across the yard while minimizing disruption to the sidewalk and landscaping.

The Work

Excavated a 60-foot trench from the house to the curb stop using a backhoe
Used a moles technique to go under sidewalks and avoid extra demolition
Removed the old copper water line and installed a 220 psi-rated poly pipe
Returned the yard to rough grade after the pipe replacement

The Outcome

The new water line provides reliable service and meets current standards. By tunneling under the sidewalk, we kept the property’s hardscape intact and limited the impact on the yard. The area is ready for final restoration by the homeowner.
