Who is responsible for water leaks on your property?
This guide will help provide a better idea of where your pipes and water meter are located, as well as who is responsible for fixing a water leak outside your house.
We own and maintain the water mains which carry water to homes and businesses. Your home is linked to the water main by a service pipe. If the water leak is outside of your house's boundary, we'll be responsible for repairing it.
Even if the problem is your responsibility to fix, we want to help. If you report a suspected leak to us, we can provide a free leak detection service for up to one hour. This service will be able to help find burst water pipes, broken pipes or other leaks outside your house, though we can't guarantee that we'll always be able to find the source of the problem.
