Should Re-Piping be a priority for Gilbert, AZ homeowners?

Whether you've lived in your home for years or are moving into an older home, you may find yourself wondering about the need for hiring a plumber to re-pipe old plumbing. Re-piping needs can be determined quickly based on plumbing problems you may be experiencing. Let our knowledgeable technicians guide you in deciding when to re-pipe and what materials to use.

Common Problems with Old Pipe Fixtures

Re-piping is the process of removing or building around existing plumbing due to age or faults in the pipes. Re-piping is common in aging homes or homes where poor materials were used, such as lead pipes.

While an inspection is the best way to determine actual plumbing needs, the following signs may be a good indicator that it's time for re-piping:

• Discoloration of water
• Pipes are beginning to drip or leak
• Water is slow to reach the desired temperature
• Water pressure spikes and falls for no apparent reason
• Shower water temperature drops when a toilet is flushed

Selecting the Right Materials

The two main material varieties to choose from in today's plumbing market are copper pipes and polyvinyl chloride pipes, more commonly known as PVC pipes. Each material has its benefits and can be used to meet your specific plumbing needs. Copper is known for being durable and long-lasting, while PVC is a popular choice for being affordable and more accessible in large projects.
