Curb Stop and Shutoff Valve Replacement in Kelso, WA

In an emergency you need to turn the water off fast. Many houses have a main shutoff that is an old gate valve, seized in place, or one that turns but never fully closes.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Kelso, WA homeowners with plumbers who replace those valves. Inside the house, the usual swap is a full port brass ball valve, a quarter turn from open to closed. The plumber may add a second valve on the other side of the meter or a pressure reducing valve at the same time.

The curb stop is the valve in a small box near the street or property line, operated with a long curb key. In many towns the utility owns it, so the plumber coordinates with the water department before working on it. A buried box filled with dirt or a broken stem rod is common.

If you cannot find or close your main shutoff, that is worth fixing before a pipe bursts. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Curb Stop and Shutoff Valve Replacement in Kelso, WA.

Talk to a person
Is PEX or copper better for repiping?
PEX costs less, needs fewer wall openings and does not corrode. Copper handles heat well and lasts in friendly water but can pit in aggressive water. Many homes with past pinhole leaks choose PEX.
How can I tell if I have polybutylene pipe?
Polybutylene is flexible gray or blue plastic, often stamped PB2110, found in many homes built from about 1978 to 1995. Check near the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house.
Will my walls be torn up during a repipe in Kelso, WA?
No. Plumbers cut small access holes where pipes turn or connect, then patch, tape, mud and texture them. Closets and cabinet backs are used where possible.
What causes pinhole leaks in copper pipe?
Pinholes usually come from pitting corrosion caused by water chemistry, such as low pH or high chlorine or chloramine, or by high flow speed in small pipe. Repeat pinholes mean the whole run is thinning.
How do I get a water line replacement quote in Kelso, WA?
Call (866) 335-0301 and describe the pipe material, the length of the run and what you are seeing. A plumber can then look at the site and price the work.
