Free to homeowners in Irving — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.
The short answer
The median build year in Irving is 1982, which is copper territory and sometimes copper with polybutylene in part of the run. Normal supply is 45 to 80 psi and under 40 psi is low, so a gauge on an outside tap settles whether this is a supply problem at all.

Irving has 94,801 occupied homes across 10 ZIP codes. Across all its housing, vacant units included, the median build year is 1982 — the most useful single fact for working out why the water pressure is weak, because it predicts what the supply pipe is made of.
What this site is
PressureTrace is a referral service, not a plumbing contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. Every state page sets out who licenses plumbers there and where to check, so you can confirm before work begins. We do not perform plumbing work, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.Irving sits 15 years older than the TX median of 1997. Of the 128 TX towns we route calls in, its housing is older than 90% of them, and by number of homes it ranks 8th.
What 1982 tells you about the pipe in Irving
Housing of this vintage generally means copper throughout in most cases, with polybutylene fitted in some homes built from the late seventies onward. Polybutylene was discontinued in the mid-nineties and is worth identifying, because its failures are sudden rather than gradual. More on 1980s supply pipe.
39% of occupied homes in Irving are owner-occupied, 18 points below the TX figure of 57%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.
Median household income across Irving ZIP codes is $70,250, 25% below the TX median of $93,661.

Before calling anyone in Irving, check whether every tap is weak or just one. Normal supply is 45–80 psi and under 40 psi is low — how to test it in a minute. Whole house is a supply problem worth a call; one tap is usually a five-minute job you can do yourself.
