Corroded pipes

The plumbing system is one of the most overlooked parts of your home. In fact, most homeowners don’t think about their sewer lines until there is a problem. Corroded pipes are a common issue that can lead to plumbing failure if not dealt with on time. At BullsEye Plumbing Heating and Air offer the best sewer repair services, and recommend the following tips for dealing with corrosion in your sewer lines:

Identifying the Signs of Corrosion

Knowing the different signs of corroded pipes can help protect your home from costly and extensive water damage as well as frequent sewer line repair. Some common signs that you have corroded pipes included leaks, discolored water, low water pressure, and strange tasting water.

Treating Corrosion in Copper Lines

Copper has been used for water lines for the longest time because of its high resilience against corrosion. However, copper can still be susceptible to corrosion with the right conditions. If the corrosion is not severe, flushing the pipes with CLR or hydro jetting can help. If the corrosion has spread to the rest of your system, we may need to replace sewer line.

Treating Corrosion in Drain Lines

Oxidation is the major course of corrosion in metal pipes. When the oxygen in water interacts with metal, it can corrode the pipe. Professional sewer pipe line repair is a great way of dealing with corrosion build-up in pipes. Pipe lining can be another option when the pipe is severely corroded. Pipe lining involves injecting resin into your sewer pipes. The resin coats the inside of the drain line, forming a new pipe within.
