Water Line Replacement in Federal Way: what is different here
Lakehaven Water and Sewer District serves much of Federal Way, but the buried line from the meter to your 1960s or 1980s home is usually yours. Older lines in Camelot or Jovita may be galvanized or early plastic. We take I-5 north, about 25 minutes, and replace them through two small holes when possible.
