When Is It Time for a New Plumbing Installation or Replacement?
While some plumbing issues can be solved with a simple repair, there are often clear signs that a replacement is the smarter, more cost-effective choice in the long run. Here’s what to look for that might indicate it’s time to call The Plumb Hero for an installation or replacement consultation:
For Plumbing Fixtures (Faucets, Toilets, Sinks, etc.):
Constant Leaks
If you find yourself repeatedly fixing the same leaky faucet or a toilet that won't stop running, it’s a sign that the internal components are worn out. A new, modern fixture will be more reliable and save you money on your water bill.
Visible Rust or Corrosion
Rust stains around a faucet or on the porcelain of a toilet can indicate internal corrosion. This can affect water quality and is a clear sign that the fixture is reaching the end of its lifespan.
Higher Water Bills
Old, inefficient fixtures use more water than their modern counterparts. If your water bill has been inexplicably rising, a new low-flow toilet or faucet could be the answer.
Worn Out or Outdated Appearance
Beyond functionality, a new fixture can dramatically improve the aesthetics of your kitchen or bathroom. If your fixtures are chipped, stained, or simply out of style, a replacement can be a key part of a home upgrade.
For Plumbing Pipes and Water Heaters:
Discolored or Smelly Water
Water that comes out brown, yellow, or has a metallic or foul odor is a major red flag. This often means that your pipes are corroding from the inside, a health risk that requires immediate attention and replacement.
Low Water Pressure
A gradual decrease in water pressure can be a sign of a buildup of mineral deposits and rust inside your pipes, which constricts the flow of water. This is a common issue in older homes with galvanized steel pipes.
Frequent Leaks and Clogs
If you’re dealing with recurring leaks in different parts of your home or drains that are constantly clogging, it may signal that your entire plumbing system is deteriorating. Replacing the pipes is often the most sensible solution to prevent future water damage.
Old Age
The lifespan of a water heater is typically 8-12 years, while pipes can last anywhere from 50 to 100 years, depending on the material. If your home's plumbing is nearing or past its expected lifespan, it's wise to consider a proactive replacement to avoid a catastrophic failure.
