Rusty water, weak pressure and leaking threads are the classic signs of old galvanized steel pipe. We replace it with PEX or copper and bring back full, clean water flow.
Galvanized steel pipe was common in homes built before the 1970s. The zinc coating wears away over decades, and the steel underneath rusts from the inside, narrowing the pipe until pressure drops and the water turns brown.
Older homes in historic St. Augustine and the Jacksonville Beaches still have galvanized lines, sometimes mixed with newer pipe from past repairs. We replace the galvanized sections, or the whole system, and fix any spots where steel is joined straight to copper, which speeds up corrosion.
Most noticeable first thing in the morning or after the water has been off.
Rust buildup narrows the pipe a little more every year.
The threads are the thinnest part of the pipe and fail first.
Some faucets are fine while others barely run, a sign of partial blockage.
We find every galvanized section, including hidden pieces from past repairs.
New lines planned to minimize openings in plaster and older walls.
Galvanized removed from service, with proper transitions to the rest of the system.
Lines flushed and pressure-tested, then we check flow at every fixture.

Typically several decades, but most galvanized pipe still in service today is well past its expected life.
Rust is mainly an aesthetic and plumbing problem, but older galvanized pipe can also hold other deposits. Replacing it is the reliable fix.
Yes, but the remaining sections keep corroding. We’ll show you what’s left so you can decide.
Corrosion in the hot line or at the water heater connections is common. We check both sides.
From the Jacksonville Beaches to Palm Coast.
For leaks, no hot water or backups, call. You’ll reach the owner, not a call center.
