Remove years of mineral buildup from inside your pipes without replacing them.
Arizona's hard water leaves calcium and mineral deposits inside pipes over time. This buildup — called scale — narrows the pipe opening, reduces water pressure, and eventually causes blockages. Pipe descaling removes that buildup mechanically, restoring full flow without replacing the pipe. It's a particularly common need in Peoria and the Northwest Valley due to our exceptionally hard water.
Descaling is often done in combination with drain lining — we descale the pipe first to remove the buildup, then line it to prevent future buildup and strengthen the pipe walls. In Arizona especially, this combination is one of the best long-term investments for older homes with original plumbing.
Mont Stephenson has been dealing with Arizona hard water and its effects on plumbing for 35 years. We know what descaling can and can't fix, and we'll give you a straight assessment before recommending any work.
No. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to clear blockages and flush debris. Descaling uses mechanical cutting tools to physically remove mineral scale that's bonded to the pipe walls. For heavy scale buildup, descaling is more effective.
Depends on the length and condition of the pipe. Most residential jobs take 2–4 hours.
Not when performed by a professional with the right equipment for the pipe material. We assess the pipe condition before starting.
