When You Should Repipe Your Home

As a homeowner, it’s easy to forget about the pipes that run above, below and through your walls. While the more visible areas of your home are often at the forefront of your mind, there can be lurking problems with the hidden areas that can suddenly create an emergency situation if not handled. So, what are the signs that you need repiping at your home so your plumbing is in its best condition?

Here are three signs that indicate your home needs repiping:

  1. Constant Leaks – Are you always battling leaks with your plumbing that just can’t seem to be resolved? If you fix one issue, does another pop up the next day? If you are having lots of problems with leaky pipes, repiping can give you a permanent solution and peace of mind.
  2. Visible Corrosion – When you look at your pipes, do you see lots of rust and corrosion that indicate they are at the end of their life? Rather than waiting for a plumbing emergency, go ahead and schedule repiping so you won’t have a messy cleanup project when your pipes finally fail.
  3. Age – Especially if your home is older and still has lead piping, getting replacement pipes installed is a good idea. Having a professional team come check out your entire home’s plumbing and discuss whether repiping is a good solution will give you a better idea of the project at hand.

Of course, at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of Morganton, we are happy to assist you with all your plumbing needs and can discuss whether repiping is a project that will help you achieve your best home.
