Repipe

Outdated, corroded, or leaking pipes can cause a cascade of problems in your Tucson home, from low water pressure and recurring leaks to even structural damage. Repiping is a comprehensive solution that replaces your old, problematic plumbing with new, efficient pipes, restoring your plumbing system and giving you peace of mind. Right Now Heating and Plumbing is here to guide you through the repiping process and explain why it might be the right solution for you.

Tucson's water conditions, combined with the age of many homes, can take a toll on plumbing systems. Here are some compelling reasons why repiping might be necessary:

• Low Water Pressure: Over time, mineral deposits and corrosion can build up inside pipes, restricting water flow and leading to frustratingly low water pressure. Repiping restores optimal water pressure throughout your home.
• Recurring Leaks: Frequent leaks, even after repairs, can indicate widespread pipe deterioration. Repiping replaces the entire plumbing system, eliminating the source of future leaks and preventing costly water damage.
• Slab Leaks: Leaks under concrete slabs are notoriously difficult to detect and repair. Repiping can bypass the problematic section of pipe and prevent further slab leaks.
• Corroded Pipes: Older homes, particularly those with galvanized steel pipes, are susceptible to corrosion. Corrosion can lead to leaks, clogs, and even pipe failure. Repiping with modern materials eliminates this risk.
• Rust-Colored Water: Rusty or discolored water is a common sign of corroded pipes. Repiping ensures clean, clear water throughout your home.
• Decreased Water Quality: Corrosion and buildup in pipes can affect the taste and quality of your water. Repiping improves water quality and eliminates unpleasant odors.
• Increased Water Bills: Hidden leaks can significantly increase your water bill without you even realizing it. Repiping addresses these hidden leaks and can help lower your water costs.
• Improved Home Value: Repiping is a significant home improvement that can increase the value of your property. Buyers appreciate the peace of mind that comes with a new plumbing system.

Multiple Leaks: If you're experiencing leaks in multiple areas of your home, it's a strong indicator that your pipes are nearing the end of their lifespan.

Low Water Pressure: Consistently low water pressure, especially if it affects multiple fixtures, can be a sign of restricted pipes.

Rusty or Discolored Water: This is a clear indicator of corrosion within your pipes.

Strange Noises: Gurgling, banging, or whistling sounds in your pipes can indicate a problem.

Slab Leaks: Wet spots on your floor or unusually high water bills can signal a slab leak.

Aging Pipes: If your home's plumbing system is over 20-30 years old, it's likely nearing the end of its lifespan.
