Residential Piping and Repiping
Fortunately, not all piping services are due to problems. Are you remodeling and looking to upgrade your plumbing system? We’ve got you covered.
The average lifespan of common piping materials is:
- CPVC: usually between 20–25 years
- Copper: up to 50 years
- Galvanized iron: usually between 50–65 years
- Galvanized steel: usually between 40–50 years
- Brass: up to 40 years
It’s a good idea to keep track of how old your pipes are. This can help you determine whether repair or replacement is your preference if something goes wrong in the future. Naturally, the more you maintain your pipes, the longer they will last. That’s why we always recommend reaching out for a second opinion if you suspect an issue – if you can get ahead of small problems, you have a greater chance of avoiding disaster down the line.

Causes of Pipe Damage
Normal wear and tear will naturally lead to maintenance and repair needs, just like with anything else that gets regular use in a home.
Common causes of damage to the pipes in your home may include:
- Corrosion due to age or improper installation materials.
- Tree roots may grow into and block pipes.
- High water pressure can lead to pipe misalignment and joints that become loose or cracked over time.
- Improper installation or maintenance.
- When temperatures drop, water inside exposed or uninsulated pipes often freezes, causing the pipes to expand and rupture.
Regular maintenance and repair can help ensure that your plumbing system is functioning adequately, reducing the chances of any major problems arising.
Signs Your Home Needs Repiping
If your home's plumbing system is old or hasn't been replaced in a while, you might need to repipe it.
Common signs that your pipes may need to be replaced include:
- Low Water Pressure – Oftentimes metal pipe material will develop mineral deposits that can block the passageway for water flow.
- Water Leaks – As your home’s pipes begin to age, weak points in the material can cause leaks to become more and more frequent. Often, this leakage results in mold or water damage.
- Brown Water – Rust or corrosion can develop inside your home’s pipes, producing rust-colored or brown water. The rust can travel through the pipes into the faucets and other fixtures.
Regardless of whether you own an older property or not, it's important to be aware of these signs as they could save you time, money, and hassle in the future.
If you notice any of these issues in your home, we’re here to help! And since we understand that plumbing issues don’t always wait until business hours, we are available 24 hours a day for emergencies.
