New Water Main


The Shakespeare House's water supply has been leaking for the past few months and before it gets worse or even blows we decided to install a new one.  To limit the disruption we chose to have the new 2" water line installed by a directional borer.

The old water line goes through the front lawn of the clubhouse.  The new line travels to the turnaround and 90's directly underneath the Bard's room.  This work was done last Thursday and Friday.  The plumbing will take place today to hook up the new service.

The pit near the flagpole is where the near water line begins and due to the age of the components we will be having a plumber install new valves and piping.  The walls of the pit will also be replaced.  As you can see they are in disrepair.
