Corvallis Pipe Repair Services
Pipes, connectors, and water fixtures do not last forever. Aging plumbing systems will require repairs, improvements, and parts replacement at some point. Our skilled team members can handle any issue with your plumbing system to improve its functionality.
Here are some of the most common signs you need our services:
- Bulging pipes
- Flooding in the basement
- Low water pressure
- Frozen pipes in the winter
If you notice pipe sections bulging or developing bumps, this could be a sign of internal corrosion or mineral buildup. The issue can result in leaking from cracks or fissures. When that happens, we can replace pipe sections with new material to restore water flow. We can also look deeper to address the cause by testing the water, measuring its mineral levels, and proposing solutions.
Flooding in the basement can be due to various problems. We have seen everything from pipe damage to sewer line backups or deficient sump pumps. Both sudden surges of water and gradual encroachments require immediate attention.
In our experience, ignoring this issue is dangerous because it can deteriorate and weaken the structural foundation. There are also potential electrical hazards to consider. The longer you wait to address the problem, the more expensive restoration will be.
If you are dealing with low water pressure, there could be multiple sources of your frustration. There might be mineral buildup restricting pipe flow, as in the aforementioned bulging pipes. There could also be leaks in the main water line or in the distribution network. If we don’t detect these issues, we check the pressure regulating valves and the main supply. Common solutions include flushing pipes to remove mineral deposits, patching leaks, and replacing pipe sections.
Frozen pipes are a common winter problem in our service area. When water freezes during the coldest days of the season, it can expand and damage pipes. We apply various thawing techniques to restore flow, but we also assess the condition of the pipes. In some cases, we replace deteriorating sections and insulate them as needed.
