Service Overview
Water Pressure Repair and Correction Backed by 65+ Years of Local Experience
Living with low water pressure means putting up with weak showers, slow-filling appliances, and a constant low-grade frustration every time you turn on a tap. High water pressure is just as problematic — it hammers your pipes silently until something fails. Either way, the problem doesn't improve on its own, and patching symptoms without addressing the cause just delays the inevitable.
Lapin Services performs targeted water pressure repairs that address the actual cause — whether that's a worn-out pressure reducing valve, a restricted supply line, mineral buildup, a hidden leak, or a system that simply needs a correctly sized booster. Our licensed plumbers have been correcting water pressure problems throughout Central Florida for over 65 years, and we back every repair with a workmanship guarantee. No guesswork, no repeat visits for the same problem.
Problems We Solve
Common Water Pressure Repair and Correction Problems We Fix
Here are the issues our team commonly finds and resolves during water pressure repair and correction calls across Central Florida.
Pressure Reducing Valve Replacement
A failing PRV is the most common cause of sudden or whole-home pressure problems. When the valve can no longer hold its set point — either sagging into low-pressure territory or losing regulation entirely — replacement restores consistent, safe pressure throughout the home.
Supply Line Repairs and Upgrades
Older galvanized steel supply lines corrode from the inside out, gradually restricting flow to a fraction of their original capacity. Replacing deteriorated lines with modern materials eliminates the restriction and restores full pressure to affected areas of the home.
Pressure Booster Pump Installation
Some homes — particularly those at the end of a supply line or on elevated lots — simply don't receive adequate pressure from the municipal supply. A properly sized booster pump corrects this permanently without affecting the rest of the neighborhood's supply.
Leak Repair Restoring Lost Pressure
A supply line leak — whether in the yard, under a slab, or inside a wall — bleeds pressure out of the system before it reaches your fixtures. Repairing the leak restores the pressure that was being lost and stops the ongoing water waste and potential property damage.
Aerator and Fixture Scale Removal
Mineral buildup from Central Florida's hard water narrows aerator screens and fixture inlets to a fraction of their original opening. Descaling or replacing these components restores full flow at affected fixtures without any pipe work required.
When to Call
Signs Your Plumbing System Needs Professional Attention
If you notice any of these warning signs, schedule water pressure repair and correction before the problem becomes more disruptive or expensive.
Weak or Inconsistent Flow Throughout the Home
When low pressure isn't isolated to one fixture but affects your whole house, the problem is upstream — and it requires a repair at the supply side rather than at the individual fixtures. Identifying and correcting the source is the only permanent fix.
Pipes Bang or Knock When Valves Close
Water hammer — the banging you hear when shutting off a faucet — is a direct sign of high supply pressure. Correcting the pressure eliminates the hydraulic shock that's slowly damaging your pipe joints and fittings every single day.
Appliances Failing Prematurely
If your water heater inlet valve, washing machine hose, or dishwasher solenoid valve has failed more than once, high pressure is likely the cause. Correcting the pressure protects every appliance and fixture in your home going forward.
PRV Is More Than 10 Years Old
Pressure reducing valves have a typical service life of 10–15 years. An aging PRV may still be operating but losing its ability to hold a stable set point — resulting in pressure that gradually drifts too high or too low before fully failing.
Pressure Dropped After Utility or Repair Work
If pressure fell after work was done on your street or inside your home, a valve may have been left partially closed or a component may have been disturbed. A targeted repair can identify and correct the change quickly.

FAQs
Water Pressure Repair and Correction FAQs
How much does it cost to fix a water pressure problem?
Cost depends entirely on the cause — replacing a PRV, for example, is a relatively straightforward repair, while a supply line leak under a slab involves more work. We give you an upfront price after diagnosing the specific issue, before any repair work begins.
How long does a pressure reducing valve last?
Most PRVs are rated for 10–15 years under normal conditions. Central Florida’s mineral-heavy water can shorten that lifespan. If your PRV is approaching that age and you’re noticing pressure changes, it’s worth having it tested.
Can high water pressure damage my home?
Yes — sustained high pressure above 80 PSI accelerates wear on every seal, valve, and appliance inlet in your home. It’s one of the most common causes of premature water heater failure, pinhole leaks in copper pipe, and burst supply hoses.
My water pressure is fine most of the time but drops at certain times of day — is that normal?
Minor variations tied to neighborhood demand are normal. Significant drops during peak hours can point to supply-side pressure that’s borderline low — a booster pump or PRV adjustment may be warranted if the drops are affecting daily use.
Do I need a permit for a pressure reducing valve replacement in Orlando?
In most cases, replacing an existing PRV in the same location does not require a permit. Our licensed plumbers know local code requirements and handle any documentation that’s needed for your specific repair.
Will fixing the water pressure also fix my banging pipes?
In most cases, yes. Water hammer is almost always caused by high supply pressure. Correcting the pressure eliminates the hydraulic shock that causes the banging. If it persists after a pressure fix, an expansion tank or water hammer arrestors may be needed.
Can a booster pump be added to an existing home?
Yes — booster pumps are commonly installed on existing supply systems where incoming municipal pressure is consistently low. Our plumber will assess whether your system is a good candidate and size the pump correctly for your home.
How do I know if the pressure problem is on my side or the utility's side?
A pressure test at the meter versus inside the home tells us immediately. If pressure is low at the meter, the issue is with the municipal supply — and we can help you document it for a report to your utility provider.
