You Should Consider Repiping Your House If…

Your Home Was Built 50+ Years Ago

Most homes built in the 1960’s or earlier are clear candidates for a complete home repipe. This is because their piping is most likely made of galvanized steel or cast iron. Both these materials are highly durable, however, over time they corrode. Over a span of fifty years, there’s a high likelihood that they’ve become at least partially decayed and it’s time to have them replaced.

Water Pressure is Dropping

If you live in an older home and the water pressure in your sinks and showers appears to be dropping, it’s an indication that the pipes may be corroded or clogged and that a complete water repipe is due.

Water is Leaking

If your home is experiencing leaks it is very likely the result of pipes that have run their course and need to be replaced. These signs can let you know it’s time to replumb a house.
