Fixing Pipe Leaks
Some of the most common issues that arise with aging pipes are leaks. Over time, pipes can develop cracks and holes that allow water to escape. This can lead to serious property damage, as well as increased water bills. Repiping is the best way to address this problem, as it will replace all of your old pipes with new ones that are less likely to leak. Our copper repiping work is perfectly suited for this type of repair because copper is one of the most durable materials available. This means that not only will it eliminate the leaks you are having now, but it will provide preventative care for your building for many years to come.

Restoring Water Pressure
Another common issue with aging pipes is reduced water pressure. This can be frustrating for both you and your tenants, as it can make everyday tasks like showering and cooking much more difficult. Repiping is the best way to restore water pressure to your property, as it will allow water to flow freely through your pipes once again. This is especially important in multi-family units, where each tenant relies on having strong water pressure for their individual unit. Changing the pipes in your building helps to restore the water pressure because it replaces the old, narrow pipes with new, wider ones. This allows for a greater water flow, which in turn increases water pressure.

Eliminating Corrosion
A third common issue with aging pipes is corrosion. This happens when the pipes are exposed to oxygen, which causes them to break down and deteriorate over time. This can lead to a loss of water pressure, as well as leaks and other issues. Repiping will eliminate this problem by replacing your old pipes with new ones that are not susceptible to corrosion. Copper repiping is an excellent option for this, as copper is a naturally corrosion-resistant material. This means that it will not break down over time like other materials, and it will provide long-lasting protection for your property.

Preventing Mold Growth
The final reason to repipe your aging property is to prevent mold growth. This can be a serious problem, as mold can cause health problems for both you and your tenants. It can also lead to property damage, as mold will often grow in damp or wet areas. Repiping will help to prevent this problem by eliminating leaks and other sources of water that can lead to mold growth. This is especially important in multi-family units, where mold can spread quickly from one unit to another. Copper repiping is an excellent option for this, as it is resistant to both leaks and mold growth.
