Argh! Water main leak!
Our water main is leaking (lead from the 1930s), and we need to get it replaced. Any suggestions on who is reputable and reasonably priced? Our house inspector missed both the leak and the lead before we purchased (as well as 3 rotten beams in the cellar! Thanks to all in advance.

any one heard of City Water Mains & sewer on 86th street and 18th ave in bensonhurst? anyone know their reputation? Please let me know if you know something about them via email at NSDQ160th@gmail.com. Thanks. I’m suppose to sign up with them tomorrow but i’m not sure.
Good luck!
Thanks everyone! We ended up contracting with Figliolia since we got a personal rec as well as the recs here. He seems to be reputable and we decided that this wasn’t an area to scrimp. We also had to move fast. I’ll be reporting back if it doesn’t work out!
Next up, the leaking boiler-vent flue…
i personally like harris water main
Ok, Legionnaires’ Disease … it’s on! … prepare for a “post pepper with a derisive commentary”! Wait, that’s too much effort … let me just say that I’ve added you to a new list of posters that annoy me. First came “Grammar/Diction Trolls†and now it’s the “Hurt Feelings/Miss Manners Patrolâ€
…ohh ouch ohhhh, stop it, you’re killing me. lol, that’s too much. Switching around Legion for Legionnaire’s, woo hooo, you caught me flat footed on that one.
care to make a donation to the “hurt feelings/miss manners
patrol”, we sure could use your help! what with all these trolls and unsavory gnomes running about the threads unchecked.
😉
Mr Joist, if you want me to forget the $1k, then you have to show up and buy some rounds. BTW, Arkady corrects spelling and grammar all the time in jest – drop by the OT and you’ll see what I mean.

More4Less: I still stand behind the bet … In retrospect, I should have gone with a shorter time horizon to get it over with … what is it … 9.5 years and ticking? Although, to be fair you said “if you want a friendly wager, I’m game. Join us at the next Brownstoner gathering and we’ll firm up a friendly wager face – face†which never happened. I’ll still bet something good though … anonymously sponsor a bar tab at the next drinks gathering?
Even Arkady can have a drink, as long as she doesn’t correct my diction or grammar. And Legion can help me turn that frown upside-down!
We used main man about 18 months ago. Think the price was approx $2600. They did a great job and I’d recommend them. As some have noted if your on the wrong side of the street from the main then it’s much more expensive. Good luck.
Mr. Joist,
By all means, post information about the question at hand. If you look at yesterday’s Forum about steam radiators, I did the same.
Your credibility though, comes into question when you pepper your post with angry and derisive commentary on another poster who was contributing to today’s discussion, which by your own admission, you agreed with!
It looks petty, especially when you alude to another beef from some other date.
…yeah, that’s “adding to the discussion alright”. lol
