🚰 What is Water Repiping?

Water repiping is the process of replacing old, corroded, or faulty water pipes in a home or commercial property. This involves removing outdated piping materials and installing new, high-quality pipes that improve water flow, pressure, and overall plumbing performance.

Many older homes were built with galvanized steel or polybutylene pipes, which are prone to corrosion, rust, and leaks. As these pipes age, they not only affect the quality of your water but also pose risks of structural damage due to hidden leaks. Repiping your system eliminates these risks and offers a fresh start with modern, long-lasting materials.

🛠️ Signs You Need Water Repiping

Not sure if it’s time to repipe your home? Look out for these common signs:

• Frequent Leaks: Regular leaks or pipe bursts indicate deteriorating pipes.
• Low Water Pressure: Corroded pipes restrict water flow, causing poor pressure.
• Rusty or Discolored Water: A sign of corrosion inside old galvanized steel pipes.
• Strange Noises: Banging, clanking, or whistling sounds in your pipes can signal trouble.
• Visible Corrosion: Green, blue, or white discoloration on pipes indicates rust or mineral buildup.
• Water Temperature Fluctuations: Inconsistent hot or cold water flow.
• Old Piping Materials: Homes over 40 years old with original plumbing are prime candidates for repiping.
