Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most frequently asked plumbing questions from Durham homeowners.

How often should I have my plumbing inspected in Durham?

We recommend a professional plumbing inspection every 2 years for Durham homes, or annually for properties over 30 years old. An inspection before buying a home is essential. Regular inspections catch small problems like slow leaks, corroding pipes, and failing water heaters before they become expensive emergencies.

Is a tankless water heater worth it in Durham?

Tankless water heaters provide endless hot water and use 20-30% less energy than traditional tanks. They work well in Durham for households that use hot water at different times of day. However, they cost more upfront and may require gas line upgrades. Our Durham team helps you weigh the pros and cons for your specific household.

What is repiping and when does my Durham home need it?

Repiping replaces all or part of your home water supply lines with modern piping like PEX or copper. Signs you need repiping in Durham include frequent leaks, discolored water, low water pressure, and pipes made of galvanized steel or polybutylene. We inspect your system and recommend repiping only when it is truly necessary.

Do you offer preventive plumbing maintenance in Durham, NC?

Yes. Pipe Masters offers preventive plumbing maintenance for Durham homeowners including drain cleaning, water heater flushing, supply line inspections, and leak checks. Preventive maintenance catches developing problems early and extends the life of your plumbing system significantly.

What causes low water pressure in Durham homes?

Low water pressure in Durham homes can be caused by corroded galvanized pipes, a partially closed shutoff valve, a failing pressure regulator, mineral buildup in pipes, or issues with the municipal supply. Our plumbers diagnose the root cause and provide targeted solutions to restore full pressure.

How do I know if I have a water leak in my Durham home?

Common signs include unexplained spikes in your water bill, the sound of running water when nothing is on, damp spots on walls or floors, musty odors, and warm spots on the floor that could indicate a slab leak. If you notice any of these, call us for a professional leak detection assessment in Durham.
