When to Consider Whole Home Repiping?
A whole home repipe project is one of the larger projects you can take on in your home. Essentially it’s the replacement of all your plumbing lines with new pipes. This is often a solution for more severe plumbing issues like:
- Old Pipes: We’ve been around since 1908 - and if your plumbing is from the same era, it may be time for an upgrade. Older cast iron pipes deteriorate over time and can eventually be weak enough that they sustain multiple water leaks at any given moment. If you’re regularly calling for plumbing repair services, old pipes could be the cause.
- Poorly Sized Plumbing: You may not be surprised to find out that not all plumbers complete installations to the highest standards. Pipes that are too small for your needs could cause low water pressure and regular clogs. If these are issues you deal with on a monthly or quarterly basis - then new pipes could help.
- New Home Additions: Adding a new master bathroom to your home? Looking for a way to power a new pool or hot tub? New home additions mean new plumbing lines to service those areas. If you’re already investing in your home, it could be a good opportunity for a complete overhaul.
- Pipes Damaged by Freezing Temperatures: Living in Portage means dealing with cold temperatures that can affect your plumbing in various ways - the worst being frozen burst pipes. If your old pipes are not insulated or damaged from previous winter seasons, upgrading your plumbing could be a good way to protect your home.
Although repiping services could be costly, it could help you solve many of the above issues once and for all.
What Materials Should Your Repiping Contractor Use?
