The Lifespan of Residential and Commercial Pipes

You’re probably wondering how long pipes typically last before a repiping becomes necessary, and the answer is that it depends.

If the pipes in your home are made from brass, they could last up to 100 years. Galvanized steel is another commonly used material that can last about 100 years under ideal conditions, but is also susceptible to corrosion. You should also remember that galvanized steel hasn’t been used in residential pipes for over 50 years, so if you believe you have these pipes in your home, it’s a good idea to have them checked.

Repiping Seattle

Today, most water lines are made from copper, which has a lifespan of up to 80 years. As a result, once you go through with your repiping, it should last as long as your house does.

You might also need a sewer drain line repiping at some point, as cast iron pipes last for up to 100 years, while PVC pipes are good for about 40 years.

If you live in an older home, have your pipes checked to avoid disastrous problems in the future.

Do You Need a Repiping?

How do you know that it’s time for a Seattle repiping?

The key is to keep an eye on your water service and look for any abnormalities.

For example, when you turn your taps on, there is a level of water pressure to which you’re accustomed. When you notice that the pressure is lower than usual, it could mean that you have a buildup of rust and mineral deposits inside your water line. This buildup is a sign that your pipes are nearing the end of their lifespan, so you should have them looked at right away.

The color of your water is another sign to watch for, as brown or red liquid indicates the presence of rust. When rust gets into your water supply, it’s usually because of corrosion inside of your pipes. This water is not only an eyesore, but it can also make you sick if you ingest it. Have Hunt’s Services look at your water supply line immediately if you notice this discoloration.

Do you frequently experience leaking pipes? While it’s perfectly normal to have your water line leak in isolated locations from time to time, when it happens regularly, it could mean your pipes are close to the end of their lives. A repiping can save you money in this situation because you won’t have to pay for repairs and will have peace of mind that your new water system is in good shape.

How We Repipe Your Home or Business

Although repiping sounds like a complicated process, since you’re running entirely new pipes throughout the building, it’s more time-consuming than difficult. The entire process can take between three and five days, depending on the size of your home or commercial property, but you should only experience minimal water service disruptions.

To start, we may have to cut a hole in your drywall to access your pipes. In some cases, cutting into the ceiling or removing some fixtures might be necessary. We’ll always do everything possible to return your home to its previous condition, however, so you don’t have to worry about cleanup or further repairs.

We’ll use any access panels that we cut to remove sections of pipe and install new ones. If you have an unfinished basement or crawlspace, there’s a chance we can remove much of the pipeline without disrupting your home.

There will be an immediate improvement to your water service and the performance of your fixtures once we’ve completed the job.
