OK with the information given I figure you have a busted water main.
Now NOT knowing the size ILL assume it is 6″ diameter and NOT knowing the distance from the well or the city water main for your connection ILL cover my back and figure 6 miles of piping. Corporation Type class 22
Considering I charge on the average $125 per hr per man labor plus getting a back hoe operator $1,540 per 7 HR day and having to follow OSHA Guide lines as far as shoring goes PLUS a flag man as this 6 mile stretch can be located in a traffic area
We are looking about six and a half million BUT if you buy a pick and shovel and use a MUCH smaller pipe diameter you can do it for about a buck-ten-ninety-eight.
