South Florida has experienced a tremendous amount of issues with the original cast iron plumbing in many homes that were built prior to 1975.

So, what exactly happens to
cast iron pipes?
Thinning
The bottom of the pipe thins out and begins to develop pin holes
Scaling
Interior scaling occurs, impeding smooth flow of solids
