Usually the first indicator of a compromised water main are unusual sounds - gurgling, hissing, clanking, emanating from the water pipes.
Low water pressure
Water pressure drops across all fixtures in your home or building indicates a main line issue.
Discolored Water or Changes in Water Clarity or Smell

Pooling Water
Water pooling at the surface, in grass, landscaped areas, or in hardscape areas, whether asphalt or cement.
