The water service broke Monday night. I called Pacific Crest Tuesday, they came to the house Wednesday to scope out the situation, and replaced the water service on Thursday. They had an opening in their schedule and were able to fit me in right away.
They bored the new pipe from the meter box into the basement with no excavation and hooked it up. Nick even noticed that the toilet was running and adjusted it for me.
It looks a little funky in the basement because the bore came through the concrete bench wall and they connected it back to the existing piping.
Bottom line, I was thrilled to have the water fixed in two days, for a reasonable price. Nick and Anna were great - they kept me informed as to my options, the cost and the schedule, and they exceeded my expectations.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.
Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.
To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.
Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.
How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables.
As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.
