My house is on a slab and has city water. I noticed my last water bill was high and I think I hear a "water running" noise coming from the walls or ceiling of my downstairs interior bathroom. So this made me think I have a leak. I checked the water meter and sure enough the triangle is spinning like crazy. I shut off the main water valve to my house which is in the garage and the valve to the irrigation system which is in the ground next to the meter. This did not stop the meter from spinning.
Questions:
So I guess this means the leak in between the meter and my main water valve?
Who should I call about this, the city (I am on city water) or a plumber?
Do you think the noise I hear in the bathroom is related to the leak? It still makes the noise when the main valve to the house is closed?
Also whats your guess at a cost to fix an underground leak between the meter and the main valve? $500, $1000, $2000.... I have no idea.
Thanks.
