| I have an older home, am I at greater risk of a leak?
| Most older homes (pre 1970) utilize zinc plated iron pipes "galvanized pipes" for their plumbing. The problem arises after the zinc coating wears off and the iron pipe is then exposed to the elements.
Rust and corrosion begins to take place deteriorating your pipes. Typically pipes on the inside of your home are being affected from the inside out; the appearance can often be misleading, while the exterior pipe corrodes from both the inside and outside, making it more prone to leaks.
 At Akers Landscaping, Inc., we use the most reliable plumbing products (Pex - Wirsbo, Copper, Poly & and PVC) and the most effective installation techniques for your water line replacement or repair.
Our water lines include one of the best comprehensive warranties in the business.
