Copper Re-piping is used to replace existing pipes that may have rusted or deteriorated over the years. Most homes built over 25 years ago were piped with iron pipes, or galvanized pipes, which were covered with a zinc coating. Over a period of time the zinc on the pipes would break down causing the pipes to rust. Once this process happens, it becomes necessary to change to copper repipe.
Polybutylene pipes used in plumbing may show no outward signs of distress even when they are close to bursting. Found in as many as one in five homes built between built between 1978 and 1995, polybutylene piping can leak at joints and unions behind walls where they can cause mold.
Don't take the risk of dealing with mold in your home.
