Raptor Plumbing: Backflow and Copper Leak Repair Experts
Raptor Plumbing: Backflow Repair and Copper Leak Repair You Can Trust
When water systems work the way they should, you barely notice them. When something goes wrong, you need fast, expert help. Raptor Plumbing is here for our community with reliable Backflow Repair and Copper Leak Repair—two services that protect your family’s health, your home, and your water bill.
Backflow Repair: Protect Your Drinking Water
Backflow happens when water reverses direction and potentially pulls contaminants into your clean water lines. It can be caused by sudden pressure changes, faulty backflow preventers, or aging devices. If you have an irrigation system, boiler, soda fountain, or fire suppression system, you likely have a backflow prevention device that needs periodic testing and maintenance.
- Common signs you may need backflow repair or testing:
- Water that tastes or smells unusual
- Discolored water at one or more fixtures
- Visible leaks or corrosion around the backflow device
- Recent plumbing work or pressure issues in the area
Raptor Plumbing provides certified testing, diagnosis, and repairs. We verify that your backflow preventer is working, replace worn internal parts, and ensure you meet local code and annual inspection requirements. If a replacement is needed, we size and install the right device to keep your water safe.
Copper Leak Repair: Stop Water Damage Fast
Copper pipes are durable, but they can still develop pinhole leaks, especially in areas with high water pressure, aggressive water chemistry, or aging plumbing. Even a tiny leak can cause hidden damage, mold growth, or higher utility bills.
- Watch for:
- Ceiling or wall spots that appear damp or stained
- Hissing sounds or sporadic dripping near pipes
- Lower water pressure at fixtures
- Unexpected increases in your water bill
Our copper leak repair approach focuses on long-term reliability. We locate the leak accurately, remove compromised pipe, and repair using high-quality copper and fittings or, when appropriate, transition to durable materials approved by code. We also address the underlying causes—such as pressure issues or corrosion—so the problem doesn’t return.
Simple Prevention Tips You Can Do Today
- Schedule annual backflow testing for irrigation, boilers, and commercial devices.
- Install and maintain a pressure-reducing valve if your home’s water pressure exceeds 80 psi.
- Add hammer arrestors where fixtures cause banging pipes to reduce stress on copper lines.
- Flush irrigation and hose bib lines seasonally to reduce debris and sediment.
- Consider whole-home filtration if your water is highly corrosive or has abrasive sediment.
