Results

What the four results mean

Deal with the leak first

Water is getting out now. The leak is repaired first; a repipe is a separate decision afterwards.

Plan a repipe soon

Repeat leaks, a deadline, rusty water from steel pipe or signs of a leak under the slab: worth a written scope in the next few weeks.

Plan ahead

Polybutylene, galvanized steel or a house from those eras, with nothing urgent: scope it on your own timing.

No sign that a repipe is due

Nothing points to the supply pipe. Keep an eye on leaks, color and pressure.

The rules are fixed and the same answers always give the same result. The highest level any answer reaches wins, and every answer that moved the result is listed under "Why". The assessment from Level Repiping Charlotte works only from what you have seen or been told; it can't see inside walls or under a slab, and it doesn't say how an insurer will treat your pipe.
