Your move
Look up your address in Carriage Meadows Homeowners Association's service line inventory. If it says lead, galvanized or unknown, test your tap. If your own line is lead, replacing the private side runs about $1,200-$12,300 (EPA average about $4,700). Ask Carriage Meadows Homeowners Association whether it covers that cost before hiring anyone - many utilities now do.
