Got Kitec Water Pipes in Austin? We Can REPAIR Them!

Found out your home has Kitec? Got a huge estimate for a total replacement and now you're freaking out?  We can help!  Schedule a free estimate and we'll see if we can   REPAIR instead of REPLACE your Kitec. Kitec Facts: Kitec plumbing was used to install water piping in new homes during the building boom in Austin, Georgetown, Round Rock, and Pflugerville, starting in 1995.  In 2005 Kitec was recalled because it corrodes and bursts, but that didn't stop some builders from using it in the Austin area as late as 2008.  Builders liked Kitec because it was cheaper than copper and flexible, so it was easy to install.  Kitec water piping can't take high heat or pressure, and it corrodes quickly.  With Kitec plumbing, pipes won’t just leak, they are likely to totally burst, flooding your home!  Kitec plumbing is a ticking time bomb under your house and based on the start date and recall date (1995-2005) it only lasts about 10 years.  We do Kitec repair AND
