Nobody celebrates discovering they need repiping. The project costs thousands of dollars and disrupts daily life, and homeowners are justified in ruing the day. Still, living with leaking and corroded pipes is often more costly and destructive.
Plus, some plumbing companies offer financing and discounts to make the project more manageable.
In any case, new pipes means a fresh start. Your property now has pipes engineered to last over 50 years, installed to current codes, and free from the decades of accumulated problems. To make the most of your investment, proper care and usage as well as routine maintenance are keys to success.
In this brief article brought to you by Rooter Guard, we offer some guidance on how to protect your new pipes and make sure they deliver decades of hassle-free service.
Modern repiping typically uses superior materials like PEX, copper, or CPVC, but even these materials have vulnerabilities that proper care addresses. So, keep these in mind:
Understanding these basic facts sets the foundation, but let’s dive deeper into some habits to preserve the integrity of the pipes, too.
The difference between pipes lasting 30 years versus decades more often comes down to how homeowners treat them day-to-day. Small behavioral changes compound over decades into dramatically different outcomes.
While these habits reduce the risk of issues, and the risk of them turning into bigger problems, routine maintenance is non-negotiable and can catch issues so you can nip them in the bud.
Perhaps the most important maintenance item is to schedule biennial inspections. A plumber in La Canada Flintridge can examine accessible pipes, connections, and fixtures to identify developing leaks, corrosion, and stress on plumbing components.
Periodic pressure testing, water heater maintenance, drain cleaning, and water quality testing are also important. The team at Rooter Guard is proud to offer these maintenance services and more.
Accidental and incidental damage are practically inevitable, and timely response is the key to keeping repair costs within budget. Call Rooter Guard for plumbing repair service if you notice:
