6 Signs It’s Time to Upgrade or Replace Your Plumbing

August 16, 2023

Your home’s plumbing system is important for your everyday activities and comfort. Sometimes, it can get old or worn out, causing problems. By noticing certain signs, you can take action to make your plumbing system better, prevent expensive repairs, and keep your home comfortable.

1. Leaks and bursts happen.

If you notice leaks or pipes bursting frequently in your home, it means your plumbing system is getting worse. Pipes can get old or corroded, and the water pressure might be too high.

2. Water pressure is low.

If the water pressure in your home drops a lot, it could be a sign of plumbing problems. Pipes might have mineral buildup, corrosion, or blockages.

3. Drains get clogged.

If your drains or toilets often get clogged, it could mean bigger plumbing problems. Things like debris, tree roots, or pipes not aligned properly can cause frequent clogs.

4. Water looks discolored or rusty.

If the water from your taps looks strange or has rust in it, it might mean your pipes are corroded or have sediment buildup, which can damage your plumbing system.

5. Water bills are high.

If your water bills suddenly go up without using more water, it could mean you have hidden leaks in your plumbing system. These leaks waste water and make your bills higher.

6. The plumbing system is old.

If your plumbing system is over 50 years old, it might have old pipes made of materials like galvanized steel or polybutylene that can rust or cause leaks.
