Common plumbing issues in Arizona

•Very hard water -- scale buildup shortening water-heater, fixture, and appliance life across the Phoenix and Tucson metros
•Slab leaks and copper pinhole leaks under slab-on-grade homes
•Polybutylene (1978-1995) and Kitec (1995-2007) piping failures driving whole-home repipes
•Water heaters failing early from sediment and spent anode rods, often in garage or attic installs
•Tree-root intrusion into aging sewer laterals in older central Phoenix and Tucson neighborhoods
•Monsoon-season drain and sewer backups, plus burst outdoor lines during high-country hard freezes

Seasonal considerations

Arizona regulates plumbing at the company level: any job of $1,000 or more in combined labor and materials -- or any job that requires a permit -- must be performed by a contractor licensed with the Arizona Registrar of Contractors (C-37 commercial, R-37 residential, or CR-37 dual plumbing classification), backed by a license bond, with residential work additionally covered by the state's Residential Contractors' Recovery Fund (A.R.S. Title 32, Chapter 10). Some of the hardest municipal water in the country makes scale buildup and early water-heater failure signature Arizona problems, while slab-on-grade construction and 1980s-90s polybutylene pipe keep leak detection and whole-home repipes in steady demand.
