You might wonder why your local plumber would always tell you to get something replaced when all you want is a quick repair. Replacements are pricier, right? Why do they even want you to spend more money when you can just get the broken water line fixed? Well, if your plumber tells you to replace it, you better agree with them because they are actually saving you from future expenses from bigger problems caused by old water lines.
Repair is temporarily putting a stop to leaking or temporarily fixing cracks. It’s like putting a cork to a pipe that is about to burst; it’s still just bound to break and would cause bigger damage, not to mention the consequences that can happen when those bigger problems arise—flooding, burst pipes, burst sewers, smelly home. Repair may seem more affordable at the moment but imagine having to repair them over and over again when the pipes start cracking again.
Replacements, on the other hand, would stand the test of time. Plumbers will replace your old pipes with new ones, or even better ones as we are getting more and more innovated even in the plumbing industry. Replacements would also help in preventing other possible problems that might happen because, as said, all lines would be good as new. Plumbers will also make sure your water line has no mismatched joints that have different piping connections. Water line replacements would lessen the cost on monthly utility bills and if you are planning on selling your home or have it rented, this will secure household investments for resale too.
