An outside line may supply more than one residence
Describe the buildings served if the record is available. Private line repair depends on its source and documented limits.
Several users can change the interpretation of flow
Where a documented line serves multiple residences, one household’s no-use period may not represent the whole supply. Provide the known arrangement rather than presenting another user’s ordinary consumption as a leak. Ask which branch or common segment the proposed assessment can distinguish without interrupting users unnecessarily.
Make the shared approval explicit
Before agreeing to testing or excavation, identify who controls the implicated line and who may authorize an interruption. The proposal should distinguish an individual branch from a shared supply. If those limits are unresolved, obtaining records and permission is meaningful preparation, not evidence that every meter-side pipe belongs to the requesting resident.
Establish the customer-side line boundary
Ask who owns the relevant line section and who must consent to testing or isolation before a customer-side repair is planned. Confirm responsibility and utility locating before excavation.
