You may have noticed that some of your copper pipes have a blueish / greenish tint to them. What causes this discolouration? Well when the copper piping is exposed to air or water, it undergoes environmental changes, in other words, it might rust or it might tarnish. Copper is a metal that tarnishes and turns green, unlike other metals which have a red tint to them.
Another reason for this blueish / greenish tins is if a plumber that worked previously on the property did not clean the pipes correctly.
The unfortunate part of corroded piping is that it will result to leaking or even burst pipes which can causes significant damage to your property.
