Your 1920s-1960s era Home Needs New Plumbing

If your Altadena home was built in the 1920s-1960s era, it's likely time to upgrade your plumbing. Older galvanized pipes deteriorate over time, leading to reduced water pressure, leaks, and even contaminated water. Don't wait for a disaster - invest in a full-home or partial repipe to future-proof your plumbing.

Altadena Repipe Problems We Solve

Years of local experience means we know Altadena's repipe challenges.

Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow

Learn more

Original galvanized plumbing in Altadena's 1920s-1950s homes is severely corroded and needs complete replacement. The moderately hard water from Pasadena Water and Power has accelerated deterioration throughout neighborhoods like the Triangle and Christmas Tree Lane.

Polybutylene or other failing pipe materials

Learn more

Some Altadena properties built or remodeled in the 1980s-1990s have polybutylene pipes that are now failing. These gray plastic pipes are particularly problematic in areas with temperature fluctuations and need complete replacement with modern materials.

Low water pressure due to corroded pipes

Learn more

Decades of mineral buildup in galvanized pipes has reduced water flow to a trickle in many older Altadena homes. Properties along Lake Avenue and in established neighborhoods require full repiping to restore adequate pressure and flow.

Frequent leaks no longer worth repairing

Learn more

Aging pipe systems in Altadena's historic homes have reached the point where repair costs exceed replacement value. Craftsman bungalows and mid-century properties experience constant leak issues that signal the need for complete repiping.
