About This Project

We repaired an active water leak inside a Burbank crawl space by removing the failing shutoff connection and replacing the damaged copper section. The existing galvanized‑to‑copper transition had begun leaking and was causing water damage to the surrounding framing and insulation. We cut out the compromised section, installed a new full‑port ball valve, rebuilt the line using Type‑L copper, and secured all fittings for long‑term reliability. Once complete, we tested the line under pressure to confirm a clean, leak‑free repair.

Project FAQ

Common questions about this leak repair project.

When galvanized steel and copper are directly connected, galvanic corrosion occurs due to the different metals reacting with each other. Over time, this corrosion weakens the joint and eventually causes leaks. A dielectric union or proper transition fitting prevents this issue.
