Why this plan?
The water and sewer service lines outside your home can be challenging to repair, especially since they’re buried underground. If a problem arises, you could face water service disruptions or damage to your floors and walls from backups in your sinks and toilets. Repairing a leaking or broken water line, or a clogged or broken sewer line, can lead to expenses in the hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
Our Outside Sewer and Water Line Protection Plan is designed to assist you in such situations. It covers both labor and costs associated with repairs, with no deductibles or trip charges to worry about.

This plan provides an affordable way to protect your home’s crucial outside sewer and water service lines. The sewer service line transports wastewater to the utility main, while the water service line brings water from the main to your home. Both lines can experience issues such as blockages from tree roots or leaks due to corrosion and wear. For a complete list of covered repairs, please refer to our Customer Agreement.
