Copper Pipe Repair.
A large percentage of America's
homes have interior copper water piping, servicing all
of the home's plumbing fixtures. Toilets, faucets, water
heaters, hose connections...all are often fed by copper
piping. Copper is an excellent material to have in your
home. It's clean, sturdy, and handles temperature and
pressure changes well. But let's face it, even the highest
quality products fail from time to time. Copper is no
exception. Sometimes, small leaks will form on the joints
connecting the copper piping together, dripping, unbeknownst
to you, inside your walls or into your ceilings. Transition
joints (copper joining plastic pipe) are also common locations
for leaks. These small leaks can cause big problems, damaging
sheetrock, hardwood floors, and carpeting. We will locate
and access these leaks with minimal invasiveness or damage
to walls or flooring, make the necessary repairs, and
thoroughly test the system before we leave.
Copper piping often services the connections to your water
heater. Water heater inlets often leak due to age and
to the corrosion of the galvanized stubs that connect
the water lines to the top of the heater. We will remove
these faulty fittings and replace them with dielectric
(corrosion-eliminating) fittings to remove any chance
of future corrosion.
Copper was once the most popular material for main water
lines, servicing your home from the street. Unfortunately,
copper has weak areas that will often oxidize underground,
causing severe leaks. It is not ALWAYS necessary to replace
the entire waterline when this occurs. As such, we will
dig and expose the leak, make any necessary repairs, cover
everything back up, restore your water service and leave
you with a full warranty. If the leak happens to be located
at the penetration point (where the waterline enters the
home), we can remove the faulty section and replace it,
encasing it within a sleeve to ensure no future corrosion
issues.
