Cast Iron Piping

Cast Iron Piping

Do you own an old home? You may have cast iron piping.

If you have an older home, you most likely have cast iron pipes. This could mean it’s time for new pipes as cast iron pipes are not the most reliable, efficient or cost-effective piping.

Newer homes are typically built with PVC piping because it is cheaper, light-weight, and has less corrosion. Plus, it is easier to repair than cast iron pipes, which are known to deteriorate over time.

    Great Service

    Great service! Will was the best! Would recommend to anyone. Hard to find a great plumber. Was referred by a local restaurant and they were convinced I wouldn’t regret calling Betros. Glad I did!

    Highly Recommend

    Yesterday Betros completed a very complicated multi-day job on our 70+ year old family beach house. They worked really hard, and expertly handled each of the many curve balls this old house threw at them. They were all really nice people too, and that does make a difference. Great Job, highly recommend.

    Courteous and professional

    Middle of the night… I had a plumbing emergency, and they answered promptly. Thankfully, I knew how to shut off the water, but they were there to help with that, assess the urgency, and coordinate with the on call. Within 5 minutes I had a callback from an actual plumber, and he was able to arrive within an hour. He was efficient in fixing the issue in less than the quoted time, all the while courteous and professional as I, the worried homeowner, peppered him with questions. Excellent, expert service!

    Excellent Commercial Company

    We had a plumbing issue during business hours. They initially quoted an 1.5 hour estimated arrival time, then called back and quoted half and hour……and they were here in 20 mins. They were quick, clean and efficient. Our service guy Shaun was professional and even followed up with us the next business day. We will definitely use them in the future.
