Comment on Should I redo my bathroom plumbing?

I see where both of you guys are coming from for sure, but I just wanna make sure I’m covering my bases. If there’s anything there that looks like it’s on its last legs, I wanna get that taken care of while the wall is still open. Some of that blue/green corrosion around the joints looks scary to me, but I don’t have much (any 😅) experience with copper plumbing, so I can’t say for sure.

It’s just on the surface. Clean it with a scotchbrite pad or wheel just to assure yourself.
