Why it matters to you
Much of the Lowcountry's housing stock is older, and supply lines running through humid crawlspaces carry decades of history — when leaks start repeating, patching one spot at a time can cost more than replacing the system.
Practical guidance
If you've had more than one leak in a short span, have discolored water, or know your home has polybutylene or galvanized lines, ask for a full piping assessment before the next emergency. Homes over crawlspaces are often easier to repipe with less wall and floor disruption.
