Pinhole Leak Copper Repipe in Ben Lomond, CA

One pinhole leak in copper is a repair. Three in a year is a pattern. The pipe is pitting from the inside, and the wall is getting thinner along its whole length, not only at the spots that already leaked.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Ben Lomond, CA homeowners with plumbers who repipe homes with pinhole leaks. Pitting corrosion usually ties back to the water itself: low pH, high chlorine or chloramine, or high flow velocity in undersized pipe. Green or blue stains on the outside of the pipe and tiny spray marks on drywall are the giveaways.

Most owners in this spot choose PEX for the repipe, because PEX does not corrode. If you prefer copper, a water test and a heavier Type L pipe help, and the cause should be dealt with first.

If your copper keeps springing pinholes, call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 to talk through a pinhole leak copper repipe before the next one floods a ceiling.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Pinhole Leak Copper Repipe in Ben Lomond, CA.

Talk to a person
What is the difference between water line replacement and whole house repiping?
Water line replacement covers the buried service pipe from the meter or curb stop to the house. Whole house repiping replaces the supply lines inside the walls. Older homes often need both because the pipes are the same age.
How long does a whole house repipe take?
Most occupied homes take two to five days, depending on size, number of bathrooms and access. Water is usually restored at the end of each work day.
How deep is a water service line buried?
It has to sit below the local frost line. That can be 12 inches in warm southern areas and 5 feet or more in the northern states. Your local code sets the exact depth.
Do I need a permit for water line replacement?
Most cities require a plumbing permit for service line replacement and whole house repiping, plus an inspection before the trench is backfilled or walls are closed.
What causes pinhole leaks in copper pipe?
Pinholes usually come from pitting corrosion caused by water chemistry, such as low pH or high chlorine or chloramine, or by high flow speed in small pipe. Repeat pinholes mean the whole run is thinning.
