I am new to this forum, so I would like to start by saying hello to everyone.
I just moved into an older home (built 1982) and have found that my plumbing is all galvenized pipes. Most of my neighbors over the years have had to patch up leaks. I was wondering if it might be a good idea to look into copper piping and have the entire plumbing replaced. My house is about 1900 sq.ft.
Is this realistic?
I also wanted to know if it was something I could do in increments. For example, start by replacing all the visible horizontal galvenized pipe with copper or pvc and then slowly work toward the vertical pipes.
Thanks.
