Are You Experiencing Low Water Pressure?
This is what we found inside a customer’s water pipe during a recent plumbing repair. The galvanized fitting was completely packed with rust and scale buildup, restricting water flow and causing pressure issues throughout the home.
Over time, older galvanized steel water lines corrode from the inside out. What starts as low water pressure often turns into leaks, pipe bursts, or contaminated water due to internal deterioration.
In this case, the pipe was nearly closed off from corrosion. Replacement was the only safe and long-term solution.
If you’re in the Portland, Milwaukie, Clackamas, or surrounding Oregon areas and experiencing:
Low water pressure
Brown or rusty water
Uneven flow at fixtures
Recurring leaks
Older 1950s–1970s plumbing
