Report Water in My Street or Basement

Call 3-1-1 to report water in your basement or street.

The men and women of the Leak Desk have been on the job for years, and have addressed any problem you may have.

Leak Desk Facts.
We get 145,000 calls every year. Some of the topics include:

  • Broken water mains.
  • Frozen pipes in the Winter.
  • Open Hydrants in the Summer.
  • Parkway and street leaks.
  • Complaints of no water.

When we get a call, we send an investigation crew to assess the problem. With practiced eyes, they can determine how best to fix it, and whether it needs to be done immediately. Otherwise, we schedule it for repair.
