Over time, water pipe systems in a home wear out and a water repipe is required. Traditional homes in the North Vancouver, West Vancouver and Vancouver area were installed with copper water piping having a system life expectancy of between 25 - 35 years. Normal wear and tear due to internal sediment erosion, water pressure and water temperature are all factors that contribute to affecting the integrity of a piping system over time. A key point of mention is that most, if not all water piping is concealed in walls and ceilings. Early detection is key so that the risk of property damage is reduced.
