Problems With Old Plumbing Systems.

Longwood has a mix of historic and new homes each has its own different plumbing issues. The older the home the more likely you will have plumbing issues. The main problem our Longwood plumbers see is water leaks and sewer clogs in older homes. Most of the older Longwood homes are piped in copper or poly. These pipes are known for leaking. Copper pipe gets pin holes and theses holes can pop up in walls or under concrete slabs and are caused by poor water quality and thin wall type m copper. When you have copper pipe you will eventually need to re pipe your home. Some of the homes are piped with polybutylene pipe and this pipe is known to burst and flood homes. This pipe has been recalled because of the problems that occur with this pipe.

The sewer lines are usually terracotta or orangeburg and with these drain lines they get root penetration fairly easy and cause back ups which cause you to call a plumber for drain cleaning service. It is a good idea if you have these sewer lines that you replace them to prevent sewer back ups in your home. If you need a local plumbing company call us at (407) 710-0210.
