Plumbers serving Kannapolis, NC
Kannapolis was built as a textile mill town, and many of the original mill-village houses are still lived in today alongside newer neighborhoods. Century-old houses have had decades of partial plumbing updates, so no two are quite alike.

Kannapolis homes and their plumbing
Mill-village homes are small, often on crawl spaces, and can have a mix of galvanized, copper and PEX from different eras of repairs. Drains may be cast iron or clay. Newer areas are mostly modern plastic pipe.
Patchwork plumbing
Decades of partial updates leave many older homes with three or four pipe materials joined together. The joints between materials are where leaks tend to start.
Old sewer laterals
Clay and cast iron laterals in older neighborhoods are prone to roots and cracking. A camera inspection before buying or renovating avoids surprises.
Exposed crawl-space piping
Small older homes on open crawl spaces are the most likely to freeze in a cold snap. Foam insulation on exposed runs is cheap insurance.

Should I get a plumbing inspection before buying an older Kannapolis home?
