This could potentially not be a big deal, OP. If it's a lead service line, which is most likely, DC will pay to have it replaced. There's a trenchless method that doesn't involve digging up anything beyond the sidewalk. It's a bit of a hassle to arrange, but that's about it.

Things like this just come up when owning a house. In this case, mercifully, it'll likely just take a few hours of your time to deal with. Best of luck to you.

Let this be a lesson to those who are okay with a no-contingencies deal.

Anyhow OP you need to now fix the issue, that's your only option.

Friend; if you sealed the deal, solve the problem. That's the only way to a happy future life.

Public.

Why did you settle before all the testing and inspections were back? I don't get it.
