    When it comes to lead pipe replacement, you shouldn’t settle for anything less than safe, reliable workmanship. At Whitney Services, we provide top-tier lead water pipe replacement for homeowners across Michigan and Florida. Our approach combines state-of-the-art equipment, locally trained technicians, and deep commitment to your family’s health and safety.
If you live in an older neighborhood, your drinking water could be flowing through lead pipes installed decades ago. Though many municipalities have partially replaced lead pipes with copper ones up to the curb, this often leaves residents with the responsibility of replacing the private service lines leading to their homes. Fortunately, our plumbing contractors in Michigan and Florida have experience with lead pipe replacement and water main repair.
Replacing lead pipes isn’t just a plumbing upgrade, it’s an essential health safeguard. In many older neighborhoods in Detroit, Grand Rapids, Tampa, and Orlando, homes built before the 1980s may still contain lead service lines. Our experienced plumbers know how to handle replacing lead water pipes safely and efficiently, complying with all local regulations, from permit acquisition to debris removal.
If you’re replacing lead pipes in Michigan or Florida, you can trust us to:
When municipalities partially replace lead pipes, they unintentionally disrupt the built-up scale inside that contains lead. Once disturbed, the lead is able to leach into the water you consume on a daily basis. Young children, babies, and pregnant women are especially vulnerable to lead poisoning.
 
The best way to protect your family is to give Whitney Services a call. Our local plumbers are trained to safely handle lead service line replacement, giving you peace of mind.

With Whitney, you’re not just paying for a pipe swap, you’re investing in a healthier home.
The water main is the main pipe that supplies water to your home. If you suspect you have an issue with your underground water main, don’t hesitate to call one of our local plumbers. We have experience inspecting and repairing water mains so you’re not without water for long.
An Unexplained Increase in Water Bills: A sudden spike in your water bill may indicate a leak in the underground water main.
Low Water Pressure: If you notice a significant drop in water pressure throughout your home, it could be due to an issue with the water main.
Soggy Spots in Your Yard: Pooling water or unusually wet patches in your yard, especially when it hasn’t rained, may signal an underground water main leak.
Discolored Water: Rusty or dirty water coming from the faucets is a potential sign of corrosion or damage in the main water line.
Unusual Sounds Happening: Hearing hissing or gurgling noises from your pipes could indicate a break or crack in the water main.
Frequent Water Outages: If you experience regular interruptions to your water supply, it might be time to have your water main inspected.
Even minor errors when replacing lead pipes can lead to expensive rework or ongoing contamination. Avoid these pitfalls:
At Whitney, quality control is in every stage: inspection, removal, installation, testing, and final cleanup.

Check your home’s construction date (pre‑1986 is a clue), test your water, and inspect the service line near the meter. Discolored, metallic‑tasting water is a strong sign.
Costs vary based on line length, trenchless access, and local permit fees. For most homes, prices range from $3,000 to $10,000. We provide an exact quote after the inspection.
DIY lead pipe replacement is strongly discouraged. It’s hazardous and regulated—incorrect removal can spread lead dust or result in system failure. Plus, most permits require licensed professionals.
We use lead-free copper, PEX, or HDPE certified for potable water. These materials resist corrosion and meet stringent NSF/ANSI 61 standards.
Typical replacements take 4–8 hours, depending on excavation needs. Connection to the main line might require a short water shut-off, coordinated with local utilities.
We will beat any competitor’s price!
