Risks of Outdated Piping Materials
Many older homes have outdated pipes like galvanized steel, lead, and polybutylene. Over time, these materials can deteriorate, restrict water flow, and release rust or harmful contaminants into your water supply. They are also more prone to leaks and bursts. We can inspect your piping, identify outdated materials, and recommend durable replacements to improve water quality, enhance system reliability, and protect your home from future plumbing failures.
Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Pipes
Knowing when to replace aging or deteriorating pipes is essential to preventing leaks, water damage, and safety hazards. Here are some telltale signs it’s time to repipe your home:
Your house is more than 20 years old. If you live in an older building with outdated plumbing infrastructure, it’s probably time to replace your pipes.
Constant leaks. Recurring leaks can indicate that your pipes are starting to fail. If you have to schedule frequent leak repairs, you may need new pipes.
Water discoloration. If the water coming out of your pipes has a brown or reddish color, this could be a sign of corrosion.
Water temperature fluctuations. Corrosion debris can become trapped in anti-scalding devices as water lines deteriorate.
Low water pressure. Pipe deterioration can cause leaks or corrosion that restrict water flow and pressure.

Benefits of Repiping Your House
Repiping your home is a major renovation, but it also offers important benefits. Some key advantages include:
Reduced Costs
Deteriorating pipes can cause leaks, flooding, and water damage. Repiping your home with modern materials can prevent expensive repairs and reduce unnecessary costs.
Improved Efficiency
Modern piping materials can reduce strain on water heaters and plumbing fixtures, lower energy usage, shorten hot-water wait times, and help your appliances operate at peak performance.
Enhanced Comfort
Outdated pipes can cause fluctuating temperatures, slow-flowing faucets, and long water heating times. Repiping restores comfort and convenience by improving water flow and pressure.
Health Benefits
Aging pipes can release rust, sediment, and corrosion debris into your water supply. Repiping can eliminate these contaminants and improve water quality, resulting in cleaner water for your family.
Is It Possible to Partially Repipe a Home?
It’s possible to partially repipe a house, but the best approach depends on the type and severity of the damage. A partial repipe can work well for localized damage and targeted improvements, while whole-house repiping may be necessary when corrosion, leaks, or aging materials are widespread throughout the plumbing system.
Our certified professionals can inspect your home, identify which sections of piping are failing, and recommend a cost-effective path forward. Whether you need a small section replaced or a comprehensive upgrade, we install durable, modern materials for long-term performance and protection.
What Should I Do if My Pipes Are Frozen?
Frozen pipes can burst with little warning, so every second counts. If you suspect a frozen pipe, we recommend calling our licensed experts right away to prevent serious damage. We can help by:
Locating the freeze. We use advanced tools and diagnostic methods to pinpoint the frozen section.
Thawing the pipes. We use professional-grade equipment to warm pipes gradually without damaging fittings or causing sudden pressure surges.
Checking for cracks and leaks. Once thawed, we inspect the entire line for stress fractures, pinhole leaks, or burst sections to prevent future water damage.
Repairing or replacing damaged piping. If freezing caused any breakage, we can perform immediate repairs or install new piping to restore proper flow.
Implementing freeze-prevention solutions. We can insulate vulnerable lines, reroute exposed piping, and seal cold drafts to protect your system.
What Causes Banging Pipes?
Banging or knocking pipes are often caused by “water hammer” or hydraulic shock, which occurs when fast-moving water is suddenly forced to stop or change direction. This pressure spike makes the pipes jolt against walls, studs, or other pipes. Older or poorly secured plumbing can make the noise even more noticeable.
Other causes include trapped air bubbles, high water pressure, and loose connections. We can inspect your water pressure, check for loose or poorly supported pipes, and test for failing air chambers or water hammer arrestors to diagnose the root cause and make any necessary adjustments.
