Service Line Warranty Program
Water leaks can be expensive! As a homeowner, it is your responsibility to repair the lateral water and sewer lines (plumbing lines that run from the City water meter into your home).
The City of McRae-Helena has partnered with Service Line Warranties of America (a company vetted and endorsed by the National League of Cities) to offer insurance coverage on exterior and interior water and sewer lines for McRae-Helena customers.
