Plumbing and Sanitary Works

Different types of plumbing pipes can be used in a number of ways, from carrying water to your kitchen faucet to delivering waste to your sewage system. These kinds of drainage and delivery systems have been around since ancient times. The Greeks used clay pipes to transport water to homes and public buildings. Moving into the early twentieth century, materials like cast iron, terra-cotta, copper, and galvanized steel became more popular.

As our understanding of lead poisoning developed, things evolved even further. Today, there are many different types of pipes available, each used to serve a specific purpose. This list consists of PVC, PEX, ABS, copper, and galvanized steel, and cast iron piping. Check out the information below to learn more.
