When do the water pipes need replacing?

  • Cloudy or rust-coloured water
  • Lead or galvanised iron pipes
  • Pressure drops with two taps on
  • Repeated leaks in different places

What the pipe replacement includes

  • Pipework assessment

    We identify lead, iron or old copper and mark which sections to replace.

  • Multilayer or PEX pipe

    Modern material with no rust or scale build-up, suitable for drinking water.

  • Riser and distribution

    From the meter valve to the kitchen, bathrooms and utility area.

  • New main stopcock

    A reliable shut-off for the whole home, in an easy-to-reach place.

  • Hot water insulation

    Pipe lagging on the hot water runs to reduce heat loss.

  • Walls closed up

    Chases filled and smooth, or neatly fixed surface pipework if you prefer.

Water pipes in Nou Barris: the materials we find

In older buildings in areas such as Porta, Vilapicina i la Torre Llobeta and El Turó de la Peira we still find lead sections in the rising main and courtyards, and joints from different decades within a single flat. We replace from the meter bank and, where the riser crosses shared areas, coordinate with the residents' community.

In homes in areas such as La Prosperitat, Verdun and Les Roquetes we fit multilayer pipe with press fittings, which neither rusts nor builds up scale. Hot-water runs are lagged so the water reaches the tap sooner and loses less heat on the way.

A site manager coordinates plumbers and builders so walls are opened and closed in order, and at the end we remove rubble and old pipe. We also work nearby: Horta-Guinardó, Sant Andreu and Montcada i Reixac.

Frequently asked questions

01

Water pipe replacement in Nou Barris: which areas do you cover?

We work in Nou Barris in areas such as Porta, Vilapicina i la Torre Llobeta, El Turó de la Peira, Can Peguera, La Prosperitat, Verdun, Les Roquetes and La Guineueta, and also nearby: Horta-Guinardó, Sant Andreu and Montcada i Reixac.

02

Why replace lead pipes?

Lead can leach into drinking water and is no longer installed today. It is also usually old pipework, with joints that fail easily.

03

Do all the walls have to be opened up?

Not always. Depending on the home, we run the pipe through the false ceiling, the floor or short chases. On the visit we explain the route that involves the least building work.

04

Is the section up to the meter replaced too?

Yes, the riser from the meter to your home can also be replaced. If it runs through communal areas, we coordinate with the owners' association.
