Plumber in Windsor Park & University Hills for Mid-Century Homes
Windsor Park and University Hills are full of mid-century homes across 78752 and 78723. Many still have some original galvanized steel water pipe, and replacing it is one of the most common bigger plumbing projects in these neighborhoods.
Galvanized pipe and why it gets replaced
Galvanized steel corrodes from the inside over time. As rust builds up, water pressure drops, water can look brown after sitting, and pinhole leaks start to appear. Many owners replace it with copper or another modern material, either all at once or a section at a time.
Planning a repipe
We check which lines are still galvanized, explain the options and give you the price before any work starts. During the job we protect floors and furniture and keep the work area tidy. [TBD: confirm whether whole-home repiping is offered and which pipe materials are used]

Windsor Park & University Hills plumbing FAQs
How can I tell if my Windsor Park house still has galvanized pipe?
Galvanized pipe is dull gray and threaded at the joints. Check where pipes enter the water heater or under sinks. We can confirm for you.
Do I have to repipe the whole house at once?
No. Some owners replace the worst sections first. We explain the trade-offs so you can decide.
Why is my water brown in the morning?
Rust from corroding galvanized pipe can discolor water that sat overnight. It is a common sign the pipe is near the end of its life.
