Utility Line Protection Program Now Available to Residents
Posted on: April 18, 2012
May citizens are unaware that they are responsible for water and sewer lines that go from their houses to the point of utility maintenance. If these lines break or leak, repairs can be very expensive. The Service Line Warranty program offers citizens an affordable way to avoid the unexpected and often large expense involved with a water or sewer line break. When a line breaks, the cost to repair it can often cause hardship on a family’s budget. This new program will offer warranty protection to help cover the costs of a break.
The City of Powder Springs’ residents will see offers in their mail boxes soon. The warranty protection covers water line repairs are up to $4,000 plus an additional $500 for public sidewalk cutting and the warranty protection for sewer line protection will cover sewer line repairs up to $4,000 plus an additional allowance of $4,000 for public street cutting, if needed.
These programs are offered at no cost to the City of Powder Springs, and no public funds are used to promote the program. Individuals who are interested will enroll directly with SLWA and pay the monthly premium directly to them.
This coverage also features a 24 hour repair hotline and the use of local, certified technicians.
