Every Re-Pipe Service

PEX Re-Pipe

Flexible cross-linked polyethylene. Faster install, fewer joints, freeze-tolerant. Manufacturer 25-year warranty common.

Copper Re-Pipe

Type L or Type M copper. Higher cost, longer-lived, traditional. Right call when fire-rating or insurance requires.

Galvanized Replacement

Old galvanized lines corrode internally and lose pressure. Re-pipe restores flow and water quality.

Polybutylene Removal

Known-failure plastic from the 80s/90s; class-action history. Replace before failure to avoid major water damage.

Permit & Inspection

Whole-home re-pipe requires a permit and rough/final inspection in most jurisdictions. We handle both.

Drywall Coordination

We cut access where needed and coordinate (or quote) drywall patch and paint when the re-pipe is done.

Simple, Transparent, Fast

From the moment you call to the moment we leave: no surprises, no hidden fees, no high-pressure upsells.

Why Re-Pipe Is a Project, Not a Repair

Four planning points on every whole-home re-pipe.

Sequence to Minimize Water-Off

A re-pipe doesn’t mean days without water. We sequence the work so you have water at most fixtures most of the time; usually with only short shut-offs to tie new lines into the main.

  • Day-by-day plan shared up front
  • Most fixtures usable most days
  • Short shutoffs scheduled around your day

PEX vs Copper; Honest Trade-Offs

PEX is cheaper, faster to install, and freeze-tolerant. Copper is longer-lived and required in some inspection contexts. We tell you which fits your home and budget; without pushing the more-expensive option for the sake of it.

  • PEX vs copper trade-offs explained
  • No upsell to copper "just because"
  • Manufacturer warranties registered

Permits and Inspection Handled

A whole-home re-pipe touches structural framing and the main service entry. Most jurisdictions require permit, rough inspection (lines visible), and final inspection. We pull, schedule, and pass; you stay out of the city office.

  • Permit fees included in quote
  • Rough + final inspection scheduled
  • Sign-off without homeowner involvement

Drywall Patch Coordinated

Re-pipe usually requires opening drywall to run new lines. We cut clean (saw, not hammer), keep the cuts as small as possible, and coordinate (or directly handle) drywall patch and paint at the end.

  • Saw-cut access; clean edges
  • Smallest-possible openings
  • Patch + paint coordinated

Whole-Home Re-Pipe FAQ

Common questions about timing, cost, and what to expect during a re-pipe.

How long does a whole-home re-pipe take?
Typical 3-bath house: 3–5 working days for the plumbing alone, plus 1–2 days for drywall patch and paint at the end. Larger homes scale linearly. Detailed day-by-day schedule shared in the quote.
Will I be without water the whole time?
No. We sequence the work so you have water at most fixtures most days. Short shutoffs (2–4 hours) happen when we tie new lines into the main; we schedule those around your day.
PEX or copper; which should I choose?
PEX for most homes; cheaper, faster, freeze-tolerant, manufacturer 25-year warranty. Copper when local code or insurance requires it, or when you want the longest-lived install. We size the discussion to your home and budget.
Why do I need to re-pipe?
Three usual reasons: (1) Galvanized lines that have corroded internally and lost pressure / discolored the water. (2) Polybutylene (PB) lines from the 80s/90s with documented failure history. (3) Aging copper with multiple pinhole leaks indicating system-wide weakness.
Will my homeowners insurance pay for it?
Usually no; re-piping is considered preventive maintenance. Damage from a pipe failure is often covered, but the pipe replacement itself is on the homeowner. Some carriers offer a service-line endorsement that can apply.
