Pipe Repair and Water Line Replacement Services in Orange, California
The plumbing system in your home is a complex network of pipes, valves, and lines that work together to deliver clean water and remove waste. Most of the time, these pipes are out of sight and out of mind, hidden behind walls, under floors, or buried underground. However, when a pipe fails, it quickly becomes the center of attention. At Orange Plumbing Pros, we specialize in comprehensive pipe repair, pipe installation, and main water line services. We are dedicated to maintaining the integrity of the plumbing infrastructure for residents and businesses throughout Orange.
The Foundation of Your Plumbing System
The piping system is the invisible infrastructure that keeps your home or business running smoothly. It delivers clean, fresh water to your faucets and appliances while safely carrying away waste and wastewater. When this system is compromised, it can lead to significant structural damage, health hazards, and a disruption of your daily life. At Orange Plumbing Pros, we specialize in pipes repaired and installed, as well as water lines repaired and replaced. We are your dedicated plumbing partners in Orange California, providing comprehensive solutions for all your piping needs.
Whether you are dealing with a minor pinhole leak in a copper pipe, a burst pipe emergency during a cold snap, or the need for a whole home repiping project, our team has the expertise to handle it. We understand the unique plumbing challenges faced by residents in Orange California. From the historic homes near the Plaza with aging galvanized steel pipes to the newer developments with PEX tubing, we have worked with every type of material and configuration. We are committed to ensuring that your plumbing system is watertight, efficient, and reliable.
Signs You Need Pipe Repair
Plumbing pipes often give warning signs before they fail completely. Recognizing these signs can save you from a major disaster. One of the most common indicators is a drop in water pressure. If you turn on the shower and the flow is weak, or if using the washing machine causes the kitchen faucet to trickle, you may have a leak or a blockage in your water lines. Another sign is discolored water. If your water looks brown, yellow, or rusty when you first turn on the tap, it suggests that your pipes are corroding from the inside out. This is a common issue with older galvanized pipes found in many Orange California homes.
Unexplained increases in your water bill are another red flag. If your usage has not changed but your bill has spiked, water is likely escaping somewhere in the system. You might also notice damp spots on drywall, ceilings, or floors. These soft spots often indicate a slow leak behind the wall. Mold or mildew growth in unusual places is another symptom of hidden moisture. At Orange Plumbing Pros, we use advanced diagnostics to locate the source of the trouble and provide effective pipe repair solutions.
Water Line Repair and Replacement
The main water line is the critical artery that connects your home to the municipal water supply. Because it is buried underground, problems with the main line can go unnoticed until they become severe. Causes of water line failure include tree root intrusion, shifting soil, corrosion, and high water pressure. In Orange California, the ground can shift due to seismic activity or seasonal changes, putting stress on rigid pipes.
If you notice a soggy patch in your yard that never dries, or if there is a sudden drop in water pressure throughout the entire house, you may have a main water line leak. We offer expert water line repair services. We can excavate the damaged section and replace it with durable materials. In cases where the line is too old or damaged for a spot repair, we provide full water line replacement. We use high quality copper or polyethylene pipes that are resistant to corrosion and root intrusion, ensuring a long lifespan for your new water service.
Whole Home Repiping Services
For many homeowners in Orange California, especially those in older properties, spot repairs are no longer sufficient. When a plumbing system reaches a certain age, fixing one leak often leads to another appearing shortly after because the entire system is degraded. In these situations, whole home repiping is the most prudent investment. Repiping involves replacing all the hot and cold water supply lines in your home with modern materials.
We specialize in both copper repiping and PEX repiping. Copper is a time tested, durable material that resists bacteria and fire. PEX (cross linked polyethylene) is a flexible, cost effective alternative that is easier to install in existing walls and is highly resistant to freezing and bursting. We help you choose the right material for your home and budget. Our team works efficiently to minimize disruption to your home. We respect your property, covering furniture and flooring, and we patch the drywall where access holes were made. A repiped home offers better water pressure, cleaner water, and peace of mind.
Slab Leak Detection and Repair
A slab leak is one of the most serious plumbing issues a homeowner can face. This occurs when a pipe leaks underneath the concrete foundation of your home. Slab leaks are particularly common in Orange California due to the reaction between copper pipes and the chemical composition of the soil or concrete. Signs of a slab leak include the sound of running water when no taps are open, hot spots on the floor, cracks in the foundation, or water seeping up through the slab.
If left untreated, a slab leak can erode the soil supporting your foundation, leading to significant structural damage. We utilize state of the art electronic leak detection equipment to pinpoint the exact location of the leak without destroying your floors. Once located, we offer several repair options. We can jackhammer through the slab to fix the pipe directly, but often a less invasive solution is better. We frequently recommend rerouting the plumbing through the walls and ceiling, bypassing the slab entirely. This eliminates the risk of future leaks in that section of buried pipe.
Burst Pipe Repair and Emergency Services
A burst pipe is a plumbing emergency that requires immediate action. While Orange California has a mild climate, pipes can still burst due to pressure buildup, physical damage, or wear and tear. When a pipe bursts, it can release hundreds of gallons of water in a matter of minutes, ruining carpets, furniture, and electronics.
We operate as an emergency plumber capable of responding fast to burst pipe situations. If you experience a burst pipe, locate your main water shut off valve and turn it off immediately. Then, call Orange Plumbing Pros. We offer fast emergency service to stop the flooding and repair the broken pipe. We are available as a 24 hour plumber and a weekend plumber because we know that disasters do not wait for business hours. We are the same day plumber you can count on to restore safety to your home.
Leak Detection Services
Not all leaks are obvious gushers. Pinholes in copper pipes or loose fittings behind walls can drip for months before they are discovered. These “silent leaks” can cause extensive rot and mold damage. We provide professional leak detection services using acoustic listening devices, thermal imaging cameras, and moisture meters.
Thermal imaging allows us to see temperature differences behind walls that indicate wet insulation or drywall. Acoustic equipment helps us hear the hiss of escaping water even through concrete or soil. By accurately locating the leak, we minimize the amount of cutting and digging required to fix it. We are the local plumbing expert in Orange California for finding the leaks that others miss.

Copper vs. PEX: Making the Right Choice
When it comes to pipe repair and installation, the choice of material matters. Copper has been the gold standard for decades. It is durable, recyclable, and creates a biostatic atmosphere that hinders bacterial growth. However, it is more expensive and can be susceptible to pinhole leaks in certain water conditions.
PEX is a newer material that has gained immense popularity. It is flexible, which means fewer joints and fittings are needed, reducing the potential for leaks. It is also more resistant to scale buildup and freezing. During a consultation for repiping or new installation, we explain the pros and cons of each material in the context of your specific home in Orange California. We ensure that you have all the information needed to make an informed decision for your property.
Gas Line Repair and Installation
In addition to water pipes, we are fully qualified to handle gas piping. Natural gas powers many essential appliances, including water heaters, furnaces, stoves, and dryers. The piping system for gas must be installed with absolute precision to ensure safety.
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING
Natural gas is highly flammable and dangerous. If you smell a rotten egg odor, hear a hissing noise near a gas line, or suspect a gas leak, you must stop what you are doing immediately. Do not use your cell phone, landline, or any electrical switches (including lights) inside the home. Go outside immediately and call 911. This is a critical emergency that requires urgent attention. Once the emergency services and utility company have declared the area safe, you can contact us for repairs.
We provide gas line repair and gas line installation services. whether you are adding a new gas line for a backyard barbecue, upgrading your stove, or need to repair a section of pipe that failed a pressure test, we have the skills to do it safely. We use proper materials, such as black iron or corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST), and we pressure test every connection to ensure there are no leaks.
Drain and Sewer Line Repair
Your plumbing system has two halves: the supply side (water in) and the drain side (waste out). We are experts in repairing and replacing drain and sewer pipes. Old cast iron drains can rust and corrode, leading to rough interiors that catch debris and cause constant clogs. Clay sewer pipes can crack and collapse over time or be invaded by tree roots.
We offer sewer drain cleaning and repair services. For damaged sewer lines, we can perform traditional excavation repair or trenchless sewer repair in some cases. Trenchless methods allow us to line the existing pipe or pull a new pipe through the old one, saving your landscaping and driveway from destruction. We use video camera inspection to assess the condition of your drain pipes and determine the best course of action. Whether it is a kitchen sink clog caused by a broken drain arm or a main line blockage, we resolve the issue at the source.
Commercial Pipe Services
Businesses in Orange California have extensive piping needs. Commercial buildings often have larger diameter pipes, higher water pressure, and complex distribution systems. A pipe failure in a commercial setting can lead to business closure and lost revenue. We are a commercial plumber with the capacity to handle large scale pipe repair and installation projects.

The Danger of DIY Pipe Repair
In an effort to save money, some homeowners attempt to repair plumbing pipes themselves. While a simple washer replacement might be a DIY job, pipe repair is complex. Using the wrong type of glue on PVC, sweating a copper joint incorrectly, or mixing incompatible metals (which causes galvanic corrosion) can lead to disastrous leaks down the road.
Furthermore, DIY repairs often lack the proper pressure testing to ensure they will hold up over time. By hiring Orange Plumbing Pros, you ensure that the repair meets all local building codes and standards. We have the specialized tools and training to do the job right the first time. We are the best plumbing company to handle the intricacies of your piping system.
