Sacramento Repipe Services
Our Sacramento repiping plumbers are standing by to give you a helping hand with any and all of your sewer problems. If you own an older home or find yourself constantly making repairs to small leaks in your piping system, it may be time to consider repiping your entire home. While most pipe materials are meant to last a long time, they will not last forever and poor maintenance can lead to accelerated deterioration. Here are some signs that indicate you may need to replace your pipes:
- Discolored water
- Frequent leaks
- Reduced water pressure
- Visible signs of corrosion on exposed pipes
Homes that were built in the early 1900s may have lead pipes that need to be replaced immediately to address the possibility of lead poisoning. Homes built between 1970 and 1990 could have Polybutylene pipes that have been proven unreliable and prone to breakage. Both of these pipe materials should be completely removed and replaced with new, approved, and safe piping.
Repipe Benefits
While a total repiping of your system may seem overwhelming, it is by far the most cost effective solution to your pipe problems. Having a plumber repair the same types of pipe problems over and over again quickly becomes expensive and may make selling your home difficult. Don’t suffer through continuous pipe problems. Boyd Plumbing and Drain is here to help – call us at (916) 710-8070 today!
Repipe Solutions
Homes that are in need of a repipe have a few options available to them, including:
- Total Replacement: This is a good choice to pick during a remodel or if your pipes are especially deteriorated. Even though a complete repiping project involves breaking through walls and floors, the end result is worth it. You will have a peace of mind and increased home value, which is especially good if you have older home you want to make more attractive.
- Exposed Replacement: You may not be in a position where you can afford to replace all the pipes in your home, whether they need it or not. And that’s okay because we do have a cost-saving option for you. You can replace just the exposed pipes in basements and other areas. As long as the pipes that are not exposed are in good enough condition to last a while, you can choose to do this.
- PEX Piping: PEX is a flexible piping that can be snaked into the existing pipes. This option allows the pipes within your walls to be repaired without extensive destruction.
