Philadelphia - Very High Water Bill due to line leak - Any Recommendation?

[Abhay Dhingra]

Hi,

I just acquired a duplex in philadelphia and got a $1000 water bill. Post preliminary investigation from sources, it seems (not confirmed) there is leak in ground. Any investors in Philadelphia who have dealt with a similar problem and have recommended next steps or contractor who can test in water line to identify leak area and suggest working with water department? Is there interim relief that can be filed with the Water department while this is being investigate ? 

Any specific help / contacts is much appreciated.
