When to Request Repairs Vs. a Replacement

Knowing whether to patch a leak or replace an entire system can be a difficult decision for any homeowner. While a quick fix is often the most cost-effective path, there are certain signs that your plumbing has reached the end of its reliable lifespan. Our Hellgate team will help you decide by evaluating the age of your fixtures, the frequency of recent issues, and the overall condition of your pipes to ensure you make the most informed choice for your home and budget.

  • Frequency of leaks: If you are calling for a repair every few months for the same section of pipe, it is usually a sign that the material is failing and a replacement is more economical in the long run.
  • Age of the system: Plumbing materials like galvanized steel or older copper have a finite lifespan; if your home is several decades old, upgrading may prevent a catastrophic failure.
  • Visible corrosion or rust: If you notice flaking, rust-colored water, or greenish buildup on your pipes, the structural integrity is compromised and a replacement is likely necessary.
  • Persistent low water pressure: While sometimes a simple clog, chronic low pressure across the whole house often points to significant mineral buildup inside old pipes that cannot be easily cleared.
  • Rising utility bills: An unexplained spike in your water bill often indicates a hidden leak that may require more than a basic repair to resolve permanently.

Great service! When my water heater died, they were able to send out Henry and Abe that same day. The fellas did a great job sussing out the situation and making sure everything was safe until they could get a new unit installed. The whole deal took only 4 days, and the boys couldn’t have been more helpful. True professionals.

I recently had Hellgate Plumbing and Heating install a Navien NCB 240e combination boiler and tankless water heater. Jason returned the bid the same day. From the start Jason was easy to work with, we discussed different options and venting routes, compromised and agreed upon what to do. Michael and Jason assessed the installation exactly. The work is beautiful, like engineering art. While it seemed expensive, their bid was the lowest and they were absolutely the quickest to respond and get the work done. I am really pleased with this system. My experience working with Hellgate Plumbing and Heating was Great, I highly recommend them.

Hellgate did excellent work for me expanding the plumbing connected to a hydronic home heating system, adding a new heating zone in the basement and installing new radiators. Mike worked with me on an initial visit to strategize a plan to locate piping and radiator placement to provide heat to each room with the least disturbance of drywall or other existing features. He was quite knowledgeable and creative in finding solutions. The team that came later to install the extended system were professional and competent and finished the job on time. I would not hesitate to use Hellgate again for plumbing or heating needs.
