Pipe Repair & Replacement

Why You Should Schedule Pipe Repair Early On

Many people do not realize that procrastinating on having their pipes repaired is going to cost them a lot of money in a short amount of time. Depending on the size of the leak or corrosion, hundreds to thousands of gallons of water can easily be wasted in a matter of weeks. Moreover, the longer your pipe goes without repairs, the more likely it is to burst completely, resulting in a much more expensive operation of restoration. By refusing to delay on scheduling repairs, you will be saving yourself a lot of time, hassle, and dollars, so schedule an appointment for rapid troubleshooting immediately.

What are Signs Your Pipes Need To Be Replaced?

Generally, the first step of resolving a pipe issue is seeking out professional repairs, rather than taking the more drastic measure of arranging for a full replacement. Eventually, however, your faithful pipes will have undergone all the wear they can take and will need to be removed and replaced with completely new ones.

You should opt for a total replacement instead of repairs if you ever notice that:

• The water pressure is still low, even after dedicated repairs from a professional
• Your pipes show visible signs of corrosion, especially in the form of rusting, peeling, or flaking
• There is a backup of dirty, contaminated water in your toilet
• The water coming from your sink contains small particles of minerals or rust
• You have been forced to schedule more than one or two repairs in the last couple of months
