Understanding Why Pipe Corrosion Happens
Understanding the causes of pipe corrosion is critical for both preventing and correcting corroded pipes. It’s also essential for maintaining a healthy plumbing system since corroded pipes can affect your water quality. As water passes through corroded pipes metal particles can be released.
Pipe corrosion is the result of a chemical breakdown of plumbing pipes. It’s a form of oxidation from oxygen, moisture, and minerals, which can lead to corroded copper pipes and galvanized steel pipes.
Factors like pH imbalance, hard water, and high water velocity accelerate pipe corrosion, making it essential to address these issues to prevent further damage.
Signs of Corroded Pipe Problems
Think you might have corroded areas in your plumbing system? That could be the case if you notice:
• Discolored water with a reddish or brown tint
• The water has a metallic taste
• Reduced water pressure
• Frequent leaks or pipe bursts
• Rust stains on fixtures
• Higher water bills without increased usage
• Visible corrosion on exposed pipes
Call Made's Plumbing to Get Corroded Pipes Fixed Quick
We know that corroded pipes can seem like a big problem, but our pro plumbers know a lot of ways to solve the issue based on the extent of the damage and your budget. Early action can save you a lot of money by helping you avoid even more costly repairs.
When you enlist help from Made’s Plumbing we’ll provide expert guidance on removing corrosion from water pipes and ensuring you have a reliable water supply.
Diagnosing Corroded Pipe Problems
We use a thorough process to fully access the situation and get it corrected in the most cost effective way possible.
• The first thing we’ll do is turn off the water supply before starting any pipe corrosion repair to prevent possible damage and ensure a safe repair process.
• Next we’ll locate the corroded pipes by checking for discoloration, flaking, or rust. We can also use cameras to help identify areas that need attention in areas that aren’t easily visible.
Corroded Pipe Solutions
Once we’ve done the diagnostic work we can determine the extent of the damage and what solutions will be the most effective. Depending on the situation we may suggest the following:
• Chemical solutions can dissolve minor interior pipe corrosion without damaging pipes, offering a temporary solution for removing corrosion.
• Applying an epoxy coating can seal minor corrosion and extend pipe lifespan, offering a cost-effective solution for fixing corroded pipes. However, this isn’t considered a permanent fix. It’s a temporary barrier to prevent leaks from rust or uneven surfaces.
• Pipe relining can insert a new lining inside existing pipes to restore the surface and prevent leaks, offering a long-term solution for fixing corroded pipes.
• Heavily corroded pipes need to be replaced by cutting out damaged sections and soldering new pieces in. We always use corrosion-resistant materials like PEX or PVC to help prevent future pipe corrosion.
The team at Made’s Plumbing can also help you prevent pipe corrosion problems in the future. Regular maintenance and inspections can help detect early corrosion and prevent further damage, saving you stress and money.
