When a home’s water service line leaks or breaks, the homeowner can be stuck with growing puddles, a big headache — and major repair bills.

Utility line issues can be disruptive and lead to costly damage. From burst pipes and sewer backups to power outages and gas leaks, these problems require immediate attention that standard homeowners' insurance often doesn't cover. If a leak, breakage or fault occurs, you may be responsible.
Don't wait for an emergency.
Get peace of mind with Total Line Protection from American Water Resources.

If you think you have a gas leak or smell gas it is very important to vacate your home immediately and call your local gas utility or 911 from a safe distance outside your home. A rotten-egg smell may indicate a gas leak. Whether the odor is inside or outside, do not use anything that could cause a spark, including cell phones, flashlights, lights, appliances, matches and candles. If a leak is detected, the gas company will shut off your service and the affected appliance and/or line. Red tag means that the gas furnace or other gas appliances are not operating safely and therefore the gas company will turn off the appliance and/or line and mark it with a red tag. The tag serves as a warning that an appliance is unsafe and could cause injury, property damage or even death. After the gas company shuts off your service, call us at 1-855-800-5195 immediately, no matter what time of day or night. We will dispatch a local, licensed contractor to make the necessary repairs. After we complete the repair, the gas company will be contacted to inspect the work completed, remove the red tag, and restore your gas service.
