Fixing leaks
We had a rupture of the water main feeding the house at 3 Samaan Rd - the line had been run next to the western fence and a tree root crushed it against the fence. We were alerted by the neighbours because the water was coming down on their side. We fixed it during the week but the fix ruptured early this morning and it took us about 6 hours to trace the line up the hill, install a lockoff valve because there wasn't one, and rerun the line on the surface. The pressure in the line is quite high, which made the job a little more complex but we think that is is sorted for good now.
