If you have had to call plumbers out for pipe repairs more than once or twice in the past year or two, this could be a sign that your pipes are aging, and you may need repiping services. A leak is most often caused by corrosion of your pipes, usually due to age. Visible signs of corrosion can include flaking of your pipes or faucets, dimpling, or an aqua-colored tint on copper pipes.
Other signs or indications include:
An increase in your water bill.
Your water is discolored or has sediment from both cold and hot water.
Your water smells and/or tastes bad.
There is a decrease in your water pressure.
Mold or mildew is growing in your pipes or close to them.
You hear noises coming from one or more areas of your pipes.
Another reason for calling a repipe contractor is if your pipes are made of polybutylene, which was often used in new homes built in the late 1970s to the mid-1990s. Polybutylene pipes are prone to rupture and are no longer allowed by building codes throughout the country.
