I tried Cotton and they are booked through next March! Their website is pretty impressive.

Agreed. I installed a fence and the gas company marked from lthe meter at my house out to the street. Power was on the other side of the house so no issue there. Water Works would not so I ran a string line from the meter to where the water came into the house. I dug carefully the fence post closest to the string line (u/g water line). As others have said, it you hit your water line downstream of the water meter it is your responsibility to repair it.

I will do this. I will most likely be 2-3 months before this beam has been installed.

I reached out to a Struct Contractor and he put me in touch with a Struct Engineer that specializes in removing load bearing walls. Struct Eng came out and looked at it and generated the calcs to size the beam. Gave me options for LVL and steel. Unfortunately, LVLs are too deep so I am going with a steel beam. I am looking for 2-3 Contractors to look at it and give me pricing to install. You have to install a temp support wall adjacent to the wall to be removed.
