What are pros and cons of copper plumbing in a house?
-
Clay B on Jul 06, 2012All I can say is copper is king, lasts the test of time. My parents house has copper, built in the '50's, still good. The newer stuff has been rated well, but has not been out long enough to me, to be 'tried and true'.Helpful Reply

Lynne Krywulycz on Nov 21, 2015Copper is excellant. Has been around for ages as Clay B says. Replaced old gal pipes in OZ years ago, and is still preferred here.Helpful Reply
