Old pipes don’t age like wine—they corrode, leak, clog, and eventually fail. If you’re dealing with low water pressure, recurring leaks, or rusty water, it might be time to stop patching and start planning for a real solution. Godby Heating Plumbing Electrical has been helping homeowners across Indianapolis, Carmel, Zionsville, and beyond get ahead of pipe problems for decades.
How Do You Know If You Need Repiping?
Repiping isn’t something you do for fun. It’s something you do when your plumbing is trying to quit before you do. Here are the most common signs:
If you’re spending more time on plumbing repairs than you are using your plumbing,
it’s time to talk to a pro.
Low or inconsistent water pressure
Old or damaged pipes can restrict water flow, making showers weak and appliances less effective.
Frequent leaks or wet spots
Recurring leaks often point to pipes that are deteriorating and in need of full replacement.
Rusty or discolored water
Corroded pipes can release rust and minerals into your water, affecting taste, smell, and safety.
Pipes that bang, clank, or groan
Noisy pipes can be a sign of loose fittings, pressure issues, or failing pipe materials.
Visible corrosion
Flaking, pitting, or greenish buildup means the pipe’s integrity is compromised.
Outdated materials
Certain older pipe types are prone to corrosion, leaks, and failure, making repiping a smart investment.
