Interior Pipe Repair

It can feel very frustrating when a pipe ruptures outdoors. However bad it gets though, there’s always a small feeling of consolation that says “At least it didn’t happen inside!” Indoor plumbing failure is a whole other story. Not only is there a tremendous waste of water (and the cost of copper pipe leak repair), but there’s a significant risk of interior damage to several parts of the house, including…

• Drywall
• Wall insulation
• Flooring
• Carpentry
• Kitchen Floor Cabinets
• and More!

Even Flexible PEX Pipes May Require Water Leak Repair When Extreme Pressure Strikes.

The hardest leaks to address are those that go hidden for long periods of time. There’s pipe failure beneath your foundation slab, and then there are those behind the walls. Moisture trapped in the walls accumulates gradually over time, encouraging pests, wood rot, mildew, and mold growth. The best way to locate a hidden leak is to turn off all water appliances in the house, then walk around listening for rushing water. Your water meter can help you confirm the lost water.

Leaks in the wall are typically the result of a loose fitting or long-term corrosion. If a pipe isn’t properly connected to a tee, a leak is inevitable. Of course, that’s true anywhere inside or outside the house. Pipe corrosion is more common in old steel pipes that have been slowly oxidized over decades. Piping with extensive corrosion needs to be replaced to avoid catastrophic water damage.

Extreme pressure can also threaten your pipes, especially in the event of a nasty clog. This sort of outward force is enough to ruin everything from traditional copper pipes to modern PEX (a common material for wall plumbing). That’s why you’ll hear about homes requiring flex pipe repair for the walls after a sudden burst.
