A small leak rarely stays small. Pinholes in copper, weeping threaded joints in galvanized steel and loose compression fittings all get worse over time.

Pinholes in copper

  • Pinholes often come from water chemistry or high velocity.
  • We cut out the section and replace it, and if there are several pinholes in the same run we talk about replacing the run.

Clues it is this job

  • Green or white crust on a copper joint
  • Rust stain under a steel fitting
  • Drip under a sink
  • Damp drywall at floor level

Threaded steel joints

  • Galvanized pipe rusts from the inside and leaks at the threads.
  • We replace the section with copper or PEX and a proper transition fitting.

Fittings

  • Compression nuts under sinks can loosen or crack.
  • We replace them with new ferrules or modern fittings and check the shut-off valves while there.

Several pinholes in the same area often mean the whole run is wearing thin.
