What type of pipes did you have? How did you know they had lead issues?
1 comments

I tested the water at a local company. Did multiple water tests. First pull in the morning, another one after flushing for a few minutes and then in multiple areas. Home inspector let us know we may have lead in the joints for the pipes which turns out to be a significant amount.
What material was your pipes besides the joints?
Copper. The lead joints were enough to considerably contaminate the water with lead.
