Riser Replacement

A plumbing riser is a vertical water supply line that rises from one story to the next in a multi-story building.  Plumbing risers last approximately 50-75 years.  Old risers cause the following issues:

• Low water pressure
  
• ​Rusty color or odor to water
  
• Constant emergency repairs
  
• ​Aerators need frequent cleaning
  

Here are two examples of old risers:​​​

Replace old or galvanized pipes with new copper piping.  Why use copper pipe?

• Copper pipe lasts for many years
  

• No rust build up and less cleaning of aerators
  

• No rusty color, taste or smell to the water
  

• Replacement via a controlled shutdown prevents emergency repairs.
  

 
We are able to minimize building shut down time to get the job completed effectively and efficiently in just one day. ​​
