Most homeowners find themselves calling a plumber to fix minor issues such as leaks. However, there comes a time when your home might need a complete repiping job. This happens when you are facing more serious plumbing issues, such as frequent leaks and breaks that lead to flooding and damage to your property. When pipes are too old, they become more prone to such serious issues, so a complete repipe might be your best option.
Other reasons for considering a repiping job are if your home features any lead pipes or if the plumbing system is composed of numerous different types of materials.
Leaks and drips are some of the signs that can indicate your home needs a complete repiping job done. However, leaks can sometimes be hard to detect, since they may drip really slowly. Over time, this constant slow dripping will result in a musty smell in your home.
Another sign indicating the need for pipe replacement is seeing that your tap water has a strange smell, discolored look, or a metallic taste.
Repiping the entire house is a big task that takes time and skills. For example, to repipe an averaged sized home it can take from 3 to 5 days. We, at OneStop Pro, are fully aware of how inconvenient this can be, and this is why we do our best to complete the task with minimal inconvenience to you and your loved ones. For instance, each day we will limit the interruption of water only to a few hours.
