Low shower pressure or rusty tap water is usually due to deteriorating supply lines. Herndon McFarland Plumbing has handled piping and repiping in Farmers Branch since 1995. We replace corroded galvanized steel and brittle polybutylene with copper and PEX that last for decades.

When corrosion spreads through the system, we replace every supply line in the house. Whole home repiping in Farmers Branch is the right call when patching one leak exposes the next.
When failure is limited to one run, wall, or wet area, we isolate and replace only the affected section to keep costs down.
Type L copper has a long, proven track record and high heat tolerance. We install it where the layout favors rigid, durable lines.
Flexible PEX runs with fewer fittings means fewer leak points behind finished walls. It resists scale and is often the faster route for piping installation in Farmers Branch homes.
Galvanized steel corrodes from the inside out, choking the flow and rusting the water. We remove these aging lines completely because corrosion never stops where you can see it.
Polybutylene becomes brittle and splits often without warning. If your home was plumbed between the late 1970s and mid-1990s, we inspect for it and replace it before a hidden failure floods a wall.
Weak pressure, discolored water, and sediment usually trace back to the pipe. We diagnose the cause and recommend PRV valve repair or whole-house repiping when needed.
Farmers Branch filled in with single-family housing through the postwar decades, and many of those homes were plumbed with galvanized steel supply lines. That material was standard then, but it has a finite service life, and many original pipes are now well past it.
Galvanized steel is coated in zinc to slow corrosion. Over time, the zinc wears away, the steel beneath rusts, and deposits build inside the pipe in a process called tuberculation. That buildup narrows the bore, causing pressure to drop at the fixtures and shedding rust into the water, the brown tint homeowners notice first. Eventually, the wall thins enough to leak.
There is a second concern the EPA has documented. A galvanized pipe sitting downstream of any lead source can capture lead particles and release them into the water later. Under the federal Lead and Copper Rule Improvements, the agency classifies these as galvanized lines that require replacement because corrosion control alone does not eliminate the risk once the metal has aged.
Herndon McFarland Plumbing opens every repiping job by mapping the system. We identify the materials, check the pressure, and trace the extent of corrosion. That assessment tells us whether a home needs whole-home or partial repiping.
Marcus Pena reached out to us through his insurance after a broken pipe under his home put his family’s kitchen out of commission. The job required careful diagnosis, insurer documentation, and enough manpower to finish quickly.
Marcus shared:
“These guys know their business. Courtesy and communication every morning. They had two crews, and they were both courteous. They dug under my house to remove a broken pipe. They ran their cameras in different areas and sent a proposal to my insurance. The job was quickly done, and my wife had her Kitchen back; she was really surprised and thankful. Thank you, HM Plumbing. We do recommend your services.”
Camera inspection, daily communication, and adjuster assistance are how we handle pipe failures tied to a claim. We document the cause and staff the job to get your home back to normal. Read Marcus’s full Google review.
Elfriede Smith faced extensive pipe replacement after age left her lines broken and failing. The work involved digging near the foundation, a disruptive job where cleanup matters as much as the pipe itself.
Elfriede wrote:
“Once they were finished with the job, they were kind enough to wait until we had repaired the tile flooring in our bathroom before putting in our toilet. When the job was done, they hauled off all the old pipes and made sure everything was nice and tidy. I just can’t say enough good things about this company. I highly recommend them.”
Protecting the home during a large repipe is part of our process. We use floor coverings, dust control, daily cleanup, and ensure safe access throughout. We treat the inside of your house with the same care we give to the pipe underground. Read Elfriede’s full Google review.

Watch for rust colored or cloudy water, pressure that keeps dropping, repeated pinhole leaks, rattling lines, and visible corrosion on exposed pipe. Galvanized steel and polybutylene homes are the most common candidates for whole-home repiping in Farmers Branch.
We identify the pipe material, test the pressure, inspect accessible runs, and, where applicable, send a camera into the lines. Then we map the system and provide a written estimate before any wall is opened.
Both perform well. Copper offers a long history and high heat tolerance, while PEX flexes through walls with fewer fittings and resists scaling. We recommend the material that fits your home, water, and budget.
If the failure is isolated to one area, a partial repipe solves the problem at a lower cost. When the same material is failing in several places, replacing everything at once is usually cheaper than chasing one leak after another.
Much of the local housing stock was built when galvanized steel was standard, and that material corrodes internally as it ages. Homes from the late 1970s through the mid-1990s may also have polybutylene piping, which can become brittle and split at the fittings.
