Cast Iron Pipe Restoration Experts in Stanislaus & San Joaquin Counties

Cast Iron Pipe Repair VS. Replacement

If it’s in your budget, we always recommend replacement over repair when it comes to cast-iron plumbing. Even if your pipes are in okay shape now, you will have problems in the future—guaranteed.

However, if the damage is minimal and you are looking to minimize costs as much as possible, repairs will restore your pipes in the short term. Some homeowners opt for repair if they plan to sell their house or move soon, for example.

We’re happy to help you make an informed decision about your home’s plumbing. Contact us to discuss your needs.

Cost-Effective Cast Iron Pipe Repair Methods

After we perform a video camera inspection of your plumbing system to verify the condition of your pipes, we’ll suggest the most cost-effective repair or replacement option. We may suggest several different methods depending on the severity of the situation:

• Pipe bursting inserts a hydraulic bursting head into your system that will destroy your cast iron pipes as it replaces them with pipes made from more durable material.
• Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water jets to clear away stubborn corrosion and clogs caused by grease, tree roots, and more.
• Pipelining inserts and inflates a high-quality epoxy pipe that can either reinforce your existing pipes or replace them completely.

All these methods are trenchless, which means you avoid extra labor costs and damage to your property as we repair your plumbing. They also allow us to perform repairs quickly and provide lasting solutions without excessive digging.
