What Pipe Descaling Does for Martinez Homes
Pipe descaling is the mechanical removal of internal scale — mineral deposits, rust, and corrosion buildup — that narrows a pipe's interior diameter over time. It's a different problem than a clog: a clogged line is blocked, a scaled line is just smaller than it used to be, and gradually loses water pressure and flow as a result. Martinez's housing stock is mostly 1980s-2000s, old enough that metal supply and drain lines in some homes have had decades to accumulate this kind of buildup. Descaling restores that lost diameter without replacing the pipe, and it's the required prep step before Epoxy Pipe Coating can bond properly.

Pipe Descaling Pricing
Pipe descaling starts at $10/ft once the pipe is accessible. If accessing the pipe requires cutting sheetrock or breaking concrete, that adds to the total cost — we'll walk through access requirements in your free estimate.
When a Pipe Is Too Worn to Coat
If descaling reveals a pipe wall that's too thin or perforated to safely coat, we'll recommend CIPP Pipe Lining or Sewer & Water Line Excavation Repair instead of coating a pipe that needs structural support. We run the same descaling process across Augusta, North Augusta SC, Evans, Grovetown GA, and Aiken SC.
