Frequently Asked Questions

Repiping a whole house is a significant plumbing undertaking that involves replacing the existing pipes throughout the entire plumbing system of a home with new ones. This process is usually chosen for a few key reasons:

• Corrosion and Damage: Over time, pipes can corrode, rust, or deteriorate due to various factors, including the type of materials used and the water quality. This can lead to leaks, reduced water pressure, and potential contamination of the water supply. Repiping a home is often necessary to ensure the safety and functionality of the plumbing system.
• Aging Infrastructure: Older homes might have plumbing systems made from outdated materials like galvanized steel or polybutylene, which are more prone to issues. Repiping with modern materials like copper or PEX can improve the reliability and longevity of the plumbing system.
• Renovations and Remodels: As mentioned, some homeowners choose to repipe their homes as part of larger remodeling or renovation projects. This can be a strategic decision to upgrade the plumbing system while other changes are being made to the home.
• Health and Safety: In some cases, old pipes can pose health risks, especially if they contain lead or other hazardous materials. Repiping can be a way to address these concerns and ensure safe water quality.

Signs of deteriorating pipes will be easily recognizable. These indications encompass diminished water pressure, observable water accumulation on the floor, the appearance of mold or mildew in unexpected locations, water discoloration or an unpleasant taste, and the occurrence of scalding water in the shower when using the sink or flushing the toilet. Furthermore, if your property features Kitec piping, which has faced recalls, repiping might be necessary. Similarly, older residences equipped with galvanized pipes could also suffer from mineral buildup, contributing to some of the aforementioned symptoms.

When considering the prospect of repiping, your focus should be on finding a company that embodies extensive expertise, competitive pricing, and cutting-edge plumbing technology. It’s advisable that they hold a favorable status with the Better Business Bureau, possess the necessary licenses and bonds, and can furnish references.

Repiping experts like us exclusively specialize in repiping, which enables us to execute your project efficiently and proficiently, all while extending the most favorable pricing. The majority of residences undergo a complete repiping process in just one day. Another distinct advantage of engaging a repipe specialist is their ability to often perform professional repiping at nearly half the cost charged by regular plumbers or general plumbing service providers. Such specialists, not versed in repiping, typically command double the price for a repipe job that lacks the same caliber of materials and craftsmanship.

Considering that any repiping task involves creating openings in your walls, repipe specialists deploy skilled and experienced technicians who are specifically trained to expertly mend the walls, leaving you with a sleek and unblemished surface. With a commitment to safeguarding your floors and ensuring cleanliness, they undertake thorough clean-up at the end of each day’s work.

A few of the main benefits of repiping your home are the following; 

• No more water leaks inside your home.
• You’ll have an appropriate amount of water pressure.
• Water will be cleaner because it won’t be flowing through corded or rusty pipes anymore. 
• High quality plumbing for many decades plus a great selling point if you ever sell your home. (We just did a complete repipe of our home!)
• Ability to properly use all the fixtures of your home without loosing pressure if there are multiple running units. 

Typically we are able to complete a whole house repipe within one to two days on average sized homes. This includes the entire process from start to finish. Water access will be shut down during this time which is why we aim to complete the job as soon as possible.

Unless you’re a licensed professional, we don’t recommend repiping your home on your own. Engaging the services of a licensed and permitted master plumber for repiping plumbing needs is absolutely essential in order to guarantee the compliance and safety of your residence. These professionals possess the requisite tools, encompassing training, equipment, and authorized permits, to adeptly carry out expert plumbing tasks such as re-piping and trenchless pipe repair. Undertaking plumbing repairs of this caliber independently is strongly discouraged due to the high level of intricacy involved.

Repiping a house involves the necessity to dismantle and eliminate wall sections. Frequently, we effectively manage the isolation of work zones within a residence by establishing a well-structured work schedule. We also utilize safety-oriented materials like plastic covers and ventilation fans to minimize the dispersion of debris during work activities. Nevertheless, the process is notably expedited in homes undergoing construction or renovation, given that the walls have not yet been erected. Generally, it’s advisable to organize alternate living accommodations if your home is undergoing a pipe replacement, as this would be the typical course of action.
