Default Be aware cable company or Sub contractors

Be aware of sub contractors from any company running buried cable through your property, even in the easements. Cable company contractors cut my main irrigation line in two places. This 1 inch pipe gushed water like water main break. Course I was gone the day the molested my property along the street and didn't find the leak until 4 days later. When neighbor said I have bad leak along the street.

I capped it off down stream of the leaks and figuring out way to by pass the ruptures, plus waiting on some plumbing parts to back connect.

Bottom line if you see them digging make sure you check your systems before they leave. Luckily I can do this myself and not have to pay thousands for repair.
