Water Line Replacement in University Place: what is different here
In University Place, a water line may cross a sloped front yard or a driveway to reach the house, as in parts of the Cirque Drive area. Trenching that is costly. We come by Bridgeport Way, about 25 minutes, and replace the line through two small access holes whenever possible, with a flat-rate price first.
