Default Water line repair program.

I have owned 2 homes and both of them needed to have the main water line replaced.

I enrolled in the Ohio water line program. It is thru the gas company(I think that this is wierd that the gas offers the service & not the water company)

I only pay $3.50 a month and both replacements would of cost me about 2-3K each. I can deal with the yard cleanup. They offer this service as well.

I always sugeest to my inspection clients that you are responsable for the lines from the city service to the home.

I attach this link to there report. http://retail.dom.com/products/warra..._waterline.jsp

With the litigation concerns with are profession the last thing I need is a client to file a complaint that I didnt note the leaking main line.

If the meter is running and there is no water on there is a good chance of a leak. This is how I knew mine was leaking.

Do other states offer this program? If they do you should pass this on to your clients.

Dave, PA. has this type of service too. and as your pic shows they usually break in the winter months also. I notice this company (Dominion) also offers a electrical repair program, I wonder what that consists of? I doubt they would install a new panel, anybody ever use this?
