Pinhole Leak Copper Repipe in Kansas City, MO

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 Kansas City, MO 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 Kansas City, MO.

Talk to a person
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.
Is PEX or copper better for repiping?
PEX costs less, needs fewer wall openings and does not corrode. Copper handles heat well and lasts in friendly water but can pit in aggressive water. Many homes with past pinhole leaks choose PEX.
Will my walls be torn up during a repipe in Kansas City, MO?
No. Plumbers cut small access holes where pipes turn or connect, then patch, tape, mud and texture them. Closets and cabinet backs are used where possible.
Why is my water pressure low only in some rooms?
When pressure is fine at the hose bib but weak upstairs or at one fixture, rust scale inside galvanized pipe is the usual cause. A gauge test and a check of the pressure reducing valve come first.
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.
