Copper Repipe

Copper repiping is the process of replacing galvanized pipes with copper ones. Why do you have galvanized pipes in your property? In most cases it’s because galvanized or iron pipes coated with zinc are very common in old houses. Since they erode, rust ruins these pipes slowly but continuously. It's only a matter of time until troubles start.

Instead of replacing these galvanized pipes with other galvanized pipes that will have to be replaced again, most people choose to replace them with copper pipes. The process is known as copper repiping. Changing faulty old iron pipes is essential, and copper repiping is the best and most cost effective option.

Pipes comprise two main elements: water pressure and volume. Water pressure is the power of the water flow that comes out of your pipe, while water volume is the amount of water that flows through your pipes. When the level of one of these two elements drops, this is your best indication that you need to carry out a copper repiping on your property.

Reduced water pressure is a common problem with annoying consequences. For example, it will take your washing machine longer to fill up, it will make it more difficult to shower and it will make it more difficult to water your lawn and garden.

One more reason to consider copper repiping is when brown and smelly water starts coming out of your faucets. You'll notice that your tap water begins to look a little tinted. This coloring may be caused by rust and it's a clear sign of corrosion.
