A: At Knight and Day Plumbing and Drain, we offer comprehensive water line inspections, maintenance, and replacement services to address and mitigate lead risks. We also provide expert guidance on maintaining proper water pH levels to minimize corrosion and leaching from older pipes.
Q: How can I identify homes with lead service lines or plumbing in Pittsburgh?
A: Homes built before 1950 in Pittsburgh may have lead service lines or lead plumbing. Properties built before 1986 could also contain lead solder in the joints of copper pipes. Lead service lines typically connect the utility’s main water line to the home and are the property owner’s responsibility. Regular plumbing inspections can help identify and address these issues.
