- Frequent pipe leaks or repairs
- Rust-colored water from faucets
- Low water pressure throughout the house
- Water with an odd taste or smell
- Visible corrosion on exposed pipes

How Long Do Pipes Last?
Many Twin Cities homes still have pipes that are past their prime:
Galvanized iron or steel: Common in homes built before 1960, these pipes last 40–65 years but rust from the inside, leading to leaks and brown water.
Copper: More reliable, with a lifespan of up to 50 years if properly installed.
CPVC: Can last 50–75 years in good conditions but may develop cracks sooner without maintenance.
Brass: Found in newer homes; corrosion-resistant with about a 40-year lifespan.
If your home still has outdated galvanized pipes, replacement is often the safest and most cost-effective solution.
