What Is A Water Line And How Is It Relocated?
Water lines are attached to items such as toilets and showers and they connect to other hidden away pipes. The plumbing in your home might seem like a chaotic tangle of pipes going off nonsensically in every direction. But most homes have convenient and simple plumbing systems which a trained professional (not you, we’re afraid) is able to alter if necessary. Repositioning the water lines is not necessarily a costly, tedious job but it is certainly one for a licensed plumber. Hiring a professional will give you peace of mind and save you money in the long run.
Any changes that you want to make must be made according to your local building code which your plumber will be experienced in. Depending on what you need done, the lines can simply be extended. But generally, water lines need to be relocated or new ones need to be installed. This is especially true if they are being relocated to another room or floor.
