Indoor plumbing has a long history, and through it all the materials used for pipes have changed. If you live in an older home, your plumbing system may have outdated pipe material that needs to be replaced.
In this post, we’ve put together a list of the pipe materials commonly found in modern homes as well as the current materials plumbers use when doing jobs. We hope this will give you a better understanding of the work our plumbers may need to provide you when it’s time for repairs or repiping. If you have doubts about the type of pipes you have in your house, call us and we can find out what work may need to be done.
It’s understandable: repiping your entire home can seem like a daunting task. It is a large undertaking and doing so requires a lot of experience. However, pipes are not meant to last forever and will eventually age past the point of no return. But, don’t worry just yet — whole house repiping is only recommended when it is absolutely necessary.
