Water main leaks can show as an internal or external water leak. A rising water bill is a indicator of a leaking water supply line. The single most typical location of a water main leak is outside where the water main is influenced by ground movement which causes pipes to crack or fittings to become worn.

Underground water leaks originate from water mains pipes, irrigation systems or drainage pipes.
