Main break or my pipe?
Is it the city’s line or yours?
If water is coming up in the street, a neighbor’s yard, or around the meter, and others nearby lost pressure too, it’s likely a city main or water district line. Report it to the City of Richardson. If the water is inside your house or on your side of the meter, shut off your main and call a plumber.
Either way, if water got into your home, the drying is the same. What will it cost? See the Richardson cost guide. Filing a claim? See the insurance claim guide.

FAQ
75082 water damage FAQs
What was the 2018 water line break in Richardson?
In late August 2018, a 72-inch North Texas Municipal Water District pipeline broke in the 4500 block of Crystal Mountain Drive in Richardson. The district asked customers to curtail outdoor watering as a precaution, and the line was back in service on September 3, 2018. A later study traced the failure to a crack in the pipe’s mortar that let moisture degrade its reinforcing wires.
Is a broken water main my responsibility?
No. Water mains in the street belong to the city, and the large transmission pipelines belong to the North Texas Municipal Water District. Report them to the City of Richardson. You’re responsible for the service line and plumbing on your side of the meter.
Are newer homes less likely to have water damage?
Newer homes avoid some old-pipe problems, but they bring others: second-floor laundry rooms and bathrooms, more appliances with water lines, and plastic supply connectors that can fail. A leak upstairs runs straight into the ceiling below.
