Copper piping is widely used in Orange County homes and businesses for its durability and reliability. But like any plumbing material, copper pipes are not immune to wear and tear. Over time, corrosion, water pressure fluctuations, and pinhole leaks can result in serious water damage if not addressed quickly.

At MDTECH Appliance Repair, we specialize in copper plumbing leak repair across Orange County, CA. Whether you’re dealing with a visible pipe burst or a hidden pinhole leak, our licensed plumbers deliver fast, non-invasive, and permanent solutions to restore the integrity of your plumbing system.


💧 Common Causes of Copper Pipe Leaks

Understanding what causes copper pipe leaks can help you detect problems early and prevent expensive damage.

🔩 Corrosion

Copper is durable, but it can corrode from the inside out over time, especially when exposed to:

  • Acidic water (low pH)

  • High chloride levels

  • Soil or foundation contact

  • Electrolysis from other metals

🕳️ Pinhole Leaks

Tiny holes may appear in copper pipes due to pitting corrosion. These slow leaks often go unnoticed until they damage walls, ceilings, or cabinetry.

🚿 Excessive Water Pressure

High water pressure can weaken pipe joints and seams, increasing the chance of leaks and bursts over time.

🔥 Temperature Fluctuations

Extreme cold (though rare in OC) or inconsistent water temperature can stress copper pipes and create microfractures.

🛠️ Poor Installation

Improperly soldered joints or pipes installed too close to abrasive materials can lead to early pipe failure.


⚠️ Signs You May Have a Copper Pipe Leak

  • 💦 Unexplained water spots on walls, ceilings, or floors

  • 🔊 Hissing or dripping sounds behind walls

  • 📉 Drop in water pressure

  • 📈 Spike in your water bill

  • 🦠 Mold or mildew smell

  • 🌡️ Warm spots on the floor (hot water leaks)

  • 💧 Visible green/blue stains around joints or fittings

If you notice any of these symptoms, call 714-747-7429 right away for professional inspection and repair.

  • 🧠 Pressure Testing – Pinpoint system weaknesses

With these tools, we can repair the right pipe — the first time.


🔁 Copper Pipe Repair vs. Re-piping

✅ We Recommend Repair When:

  • The leak is small or isolated

  • Pipes are under 20 years old

  • No history of repeat leaks

  • Structure and pressure remain stable

🆕 We Recommend Re-piping When:

  • Pipes are 30+ years old

  • You’ve had multiple leaks

  • Pipe walls show internal corrosion

  • You’re remodeling and want to upgrade

We’ll provide honest advice and only recommend full re-piping when it makes financial and structural sense.


💡 Copper vs. PEX – What’s Right for You?

While copper is strong, many Orange County homeowners now prefer PEX piping (cross-linked polyethylene) as a cost-effective, corrosion-resistant alternative.

We’ll discuss:

  • Lifespan

  • Cost

  • Flexibility

  • Local water chemistry

  • Building codes

and help you choose what’s best for your property and budget.


💵 Transparent Pricing & Warranty

We believe in clear, upfront pricing with no surprises.

  • Free estimates available

  • Emergency fees explained before arrival

  • Flat-rate or hourly options

  • 90-day warranty on all repairs

Q: Are copper pipe leaks dangerous?
A: Yes — even small leaks can cause mold, rot, and structural damage if ignored.

Q: How do I shut off the water to stop a leak?
