Pinhole Leak Repair, explained plainly.
Copper pipe develops pinhole leaks from pitting corrosion, often caused by water chemistry or poor original installation. A single pinhole is a quick repair, but multiple pinholes are a sign the copper is failing throughout the home and a repipe may be the better investment.
