Pipe Repair With Clear Answers Before Work Begins
When a pipe breaks, cracks, or starts leaking, normal life stops. Water pressure drops. Fixtures fail. Water ends up where it absolutely shouldn't be — inside walls, under floors, in your yard. The situation is stressful, and the damage gets worse with every hour that passes. What you need is a plumber who shows up fast, diagnoses the problem correctly the first time, and makes a repair that holds.
Lapin Services has been repairing pipes across Central Florida for more than 65 years. From corroded copper supply lines to cracked drain pipes, our licensed technicians have seen it all — and fixed it all. We work on all pipe materials and configurations found in Orlando-area homes: copper, PVC, CPVC, galvanized steel, and more. We give you a straight answer on what the repair involves, price it upfront, and do the job right so you're not calling us back for the same problem.
Problems We Solve
Common Pipe Repair Problems We Fix
You do not have to diagnose the problem yourself. These are common issues we help confirm, explain, and repair.
Burst Pipes from Pressure Spikes
Sudden pressure surges — caused by water hammer, a failing pressure regulator, or municipal pressure changes — can split a pipe instantly. Burst pipes release water fast and require emergency repair to prevent major flooding.
Corroded or Deteriorating Pipe Sections
Older pipes — especially galvanized steel and copper — corrode from the inside over time. Once corrosion breaks through the pipe wall, the section must be replaced before the leak spreads or water quality is affected.
Tree Root Infiltration in Drain Lines
Tree roots seek out water and will find their way into small cracks in drain pipes. Once inside, they grow rapidly and can collapse the pipe entirely — causing slow drains, backups, and eventually a blocked line.
Cracked or Shifted Sewer Pipe
Ground movement, soil settling, and the weight of vehicles can crack or offset underground drain pipes. A cracked sewer line allows sewage to leak into the soil while also letting roots and debris enter the pipe.
Failed Pipe at a Joint or Fitting
Joints are the most vulnerable point in any pipe run. They can fail due to improper installation, corrosion at the fitting, or years of expansion and contraction from thermal cycling — especially in Florida's climate.
When to Call
Signs Your Plumbing System Needs Professional Attention
If you notice any of these signs, call Lapin. We will find the cause and explain what needs to happen next.
No Water or Very Low Pressure
A sudden loss of water pressure throughout your home often signals a major pipe failure — either a burst line or a severe blockage. This needs immediate attention to restore service and prevent further damage.
Discolored or Rust-Colored Water
Brown or rusty water coming from your taps is a sign that your pipes are corroding from the inside. This isn't just a cosmetic issue — deteriorating pipe walls will fail eventually and should be addressed proactively.
Sewage Odor in the Yard or Home
A persistent smell of sewage outside — especially in specific spots in your yard — can indicate a cracked or broken drain line underground. Inside the home, it may mean a drain pipe has failed within the walls or slab.
Wet or Sunken Patches in the Yard
Consistently soggy ground or an area of unusually lush, green grass in your yard can signal a broken underground water or sewer line leaking beneath the surface.
Repeated Drain Backups
If drains in your home back up frequently and the problem doesn't resolve with simple clearing, the drain pipe itself may be damaged, offset, or partially collapsed underground.

FAQs
Pipe Repair FAQs
How do I know if my pipe needs to be repaired or fully replaced?
It depends on the extent of the damage, the age of the pipe, and the material. A single crack or failed joint can often be repaired; widespread corrosion or repeated failures in the same section often warrant full replacement. Your technician will give you an honest recommendation.
What types of pipes do you repair?
We work on all common residential pipe materials including copper, PVC, CPVC, galvanized steel, and cast iron — both supply and drain lines.
My pipe burst — what should I do right now?
Shut off your main water supply valve immediately to stop the flow, then call us at (407) 326-3367. We’re available 24/7 for emergencies and will get someone out to you as quickly as possible.
Will you need to dig up my yard to repair an underground pipe?
Sometimes, depending on the location and type of pipe. We always assess the least-invasive approach first and explain the options before any digging begins.
How long does a pipe repair take?
Most repairs can be completed in a single visit. More complex situations — such as underground pipe repair or a repair requiring permits — may take longer, and we’ll be upfront about the timeline from the start.
Can you repair a pipe that's currently leaking inside a wall?
Yes. We’ll access the damaged pipe, make the repair, and patch the opening. We take the most direct path possible to minimize the disruption to your home.
How much does pipe repair cost in Orlando?
Cost varies based on the type of pipe, its location, and the nature of the damage. We provide an upfront, itemized price before we begin — so there are no surprises on your invoice.
Is pipe repair covered by homeowner's insurance?
Coverage depends on your policy and how the damage occurred. Sudden failures are more likely to be covered than gradual deterioration. We can provide documentation of the damage and repair to assist with any claims.
