Factors Affecting Your Piping
There are a wide variety of factors that determine whether repair or repining is the best option. We’ll always take these into account before presenting you with options and answer any questions you may have in full. Just some of the pipe-related issues that necessitate plumbing repipes in include:
Age – Many pipes were installed just after World War 2. This means the majority of the infrastructure in the US is over 60 years old. Many of the materials used at the time have experienced significant damage and decay. Often, a plumbing repipe is the best solution when this is a factor.
Soil Conditions – There are certain soil conditions that are bad for pipe materials. High levels of chloride and a low electrical festivity can cause premature corrosion of pipes and water lines. Soil with a high clay content can be particularly damaging.
Tree Growth – Root growth is one of the biggest reasons we perform plumbing repiping. When trees, bushes, and other plants grow deep root structures, they’ll seek water sources wherever they can find them. Even the tiniest crack in a pipe can cause a leak. Roots seek these, expand them, and grow inside of your piping.
Pipe Materials – Inferior materials can deteriorate much faster than their modern equivalents. Piping has been made from clay, tile, steel, and other materials. Many of these are still in use and installed in properties around the country. They are ticking clocks, and repiping is often just a matter of time.
Warning Signs – If you’ve seen any warning signs that indicate problems, it can be much less stressful to get plumbing repipe before it becomes necessary. Look for main water line problems in addition to the above. Don’t hesitate to contact us for a diagnosis.
