Why Ongaro & Sons for Pipe Repair

The question worth answering is whether you have one failure or a failing system.

Schedule Service →
Repair or repipe assessed on evidence

One pinhole in galvanised pipe is rarely the only one. We will tell you when a repair is genuinely a repair and when it is the first of several.

Leak located without opening the whole wall

Acoustic and thermal locating narrow it down before anything is cut.

Material and age taken into account

Galvanised, copper and early plastic all fail differently and on different timescales.

Water quality considered as a cause

Pinhole corrosion has causes worth identifying, otherwise the repair repeats elsewhere.

A view on the whole system, not just the leak

You get told whether this is an isolated failure or the first of several, because that changes whether repairing is the right spend.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a small leak cause major damage?

Absolutely, over time, even a tiny leak can lead to mold, rot, and structural issues.

Can pipe repair be done without cutting into walls or the floor?

Sometimes. Leaks near fixtures can often be accessed directly. Wall access may be required for hidden leaks, but we minimize damage whenever possible. We may employ a trenchless method for pipe access under floors or your lawn.

Can small leaks be patched, or do pipes need replacing?

Small leaks can be temporarily patched, but long-term fixes often involve replacing sections of pipe.

Do slab leaks require tearing up my floors?

Not always, non-invasive tools like acoustic detectors or infrared imaging can pinpoint leaks and limit demolition.

How can I avoid frozen pipes ?

To prevent frozen pipes during winter, insulate exposed plumbing, keep garage doors closed, and let faucets drip in extreme cold. If a pipe does freeze, turn off the main valve and call a plumber, thawing incorrectly can lead to bursts.

How do plumbers find hidden leaks?

Ongaro & Sons will often employ the use of moisture sensors, infrared cameras, and acoustic devices to pinpoint leaks.

How quickly should a gas leak be repaired?

Immediately, shut off the gas and call a licensed professional. Gas leaks are extremely dangerous and can’t wait.

Is gas pipe replacement dangerous?

Not with licensed professionals. Safety is paramount for Ongaro & Sons, and all work will follow local code and include leak testing.

What causes banging or rattling pipes?

This is often due to “water hammer”, a pressure surge when water flow is suddenly stopped. Loose pipes or worn-out air chambers can also be to blame. Installing a water hammer arrestor or securing loose pipes can usually resolve the issue.

What causes pipe damage?

Corrosion, freezing temperatures, shifting foundations, and high water pressure are common culprits.

When should I replace my plumbing pipes?

If your home is over 50 years old or you're experiencing frequent leaks, discolored water, or low pressure, it may be time to replace aging pipes. Galvanized steel, polybutylene, and even copper piping can wear out over time. A licensed plumber can assess your system and recommend upgrades.
