How to Spot Pipe Corrosion in Older Homes
Living in an older home? It’s a smart idea to take a look at your pipes once a year for any signs of corrosion. Over time, plumbing naturally starts to wear out. Things like hard water and harsh cleaning chemicals can make that happen even faster. Catching problems early can save you a lot of hassle down the road!
3 Signs It May Be Time to Replace Your Pipes
Stains, discoloration, dimpling, flaking or buckling in exposed pipes are all signs of corrosion.
Brown or yellow water out of a faucet, especially after a few days of no use, means there is rust inside your pipes. This is a clear sign they need to be replaced soon.
Sporadic, even small leaks in pipes usually mean more leaks are ahead.
If any of these situations are true in your home, call one of our plumbing experts to evaluate your system. Once corrosion wears through the pipe, it can quickly cause devastating flooding or sewage damage inside your home. It’s essential to replace old pipes before that can happen.
