Keeping the infrastructure of your Rushville, Illinois business in good shape is important for employee health and safety and customer confidence. No matter how well you maintain your establishment, plumbing and aesthetic components eventually need to be refreshed. Plumbing problems may include corrosion, poor water pressure, leaks, bad smells, and noise. Leaking pipes do not only waste water. Leaks also have the potential to allow contaminants to enter the water supply system. If you notice degradation in your plumbing system, call a professional plumber to investigate as soon as possible.

Common Signs That Show It Is Time to Repipe

Several signs indicate when plumbing is not performing properly.

  • Age. Old pipes may corrode, crack, or fill with debris. If the pipes are more than 60 years old, it may be time to replace them.
  • Noise. Clanging, banging, and groaning pipes may indicate poor water pressure, an air bubble, loose fasteners or faulty internal valves.
  • Off-color water. Discolored water discharged from pipes indicates rust or contamination inside the pipes. If the discoloration is from the hot water side, it may be from buildup inside the water heater.
  • Poor water pressure. High water pressure can strain pipes and fixtures, resulting in damage to appliances or cause leaks. Too little pressure does not provide adequate water for normal use.
  • Leaks. Not all leaks are easy to see. A high water bill or water stains on walls, ceilings, or floors indicate there may be a leak inside the building envelope.
  • Bad taste. Water with a bad taste may be contaminated by rust or debris that enters pipes through leaks or backflow.
