What is a Re-pipe?

​

The network of pipes that runs through your home or business is designed to withstand the stress of water pressure and frequent use for years, even decades. However, over time, even the most well-built and durable plumbing lines will begin to show signs of wear and tear. When this happens, you’ll need to replace those lines, or else you’ll be stuck constantly fixing leaks and dealing with other problems that could cause serious damage to your property. At Able Plumbing Inc., we’re League City’s leading whole-home repiping team and offer installations of all-new plumbing lines that bring water where needed throughout your building.

When Should I Re-pipe My Home?

Every home or business will eventually need the pipes that run through its walls replaced. Over time, water will eventually wear away and corrode any material, even materials that are supposedly “resistant” to this problem. Likewise, year after year of constantly dealing with water under pressure can also cause pipes to eventually fail. And when they do, your entire property could be at risk for it. Burst pipes have been known to cause everything from flood damage to ruined flooring to even losses of some of your most valuable (and irreplaceable) possessions.

How do you know when it’s time to consider a whole-home repipe? Keep an eye out for these signs that the time may be coming soon.

• Home or building age:
  Is your home or business’s facility more than 30 years old and still operating on the same pipes that it was when it was first constructed? Then it may be time to consider replacement, particularly if you’re dealing with plumbing leaks periodically.

• Visible corrosion on exposed lines:
  Do you have certain areas of your home with exposed plumbing lines? Are those lines showing visible signs of corrosion (particularly if they’re either copper or galvanized steel)? Then it’s time to replace them with a whole-home repipe.

• Frequent repairs:
  Are you dealing with a number of plumbing leaks? Do you have your plumber on speed dial because you never know when the next leak is going to show up? It’s time to repipe.

• Water Discoloration:
  If you notice that the color of your water has a tinge of red in it, it could be that your home's piping has rust. This needs to be addressed quickly as it can become a health hazard for you and your household.

• Bad Tasting Water:
  Your home's water shouldn't taste terrible. If your water tastes terrible or even smells bad, it's an indicator that your pipes are in need of replacement.
