Pipe Replacement & Repiping

Metal pipe systems corrode over time leading to multiple leaks, failing joints, poor water pressure, rusty or discolored water, and the potential for major flooding. Plastic Pex re-piping not only solves these problems but helps prevent them in the future by upgrading your potable water system to modern plastic pipe materials.

Benefits of Pipe Replacement

•  Avoid potentially disastrous leaks which can cause expensive damage to your home
• Improve the flow and quality of your drinking water
• Avert future problems due to corrosion by upgrading to modern plastic pipe

How Does It Work?

1. Drinking Water System Diagnosis
   Your hot and cold drinking water system is inspected to assess the level of repairs needed as well as the layout of your pipe system.  Using this information, our technicians outline which pipes need to be replaced and the least invasive plan to carry out those replacements.
2. Re-piping
   The pipes under your home that need to be replaced are removed. Small sections of drywall from the flooring up to the faucets of defective pipe are cut away and the pipes removed. Pex pipe is then installed in place of the defective pipe.

Benefits of Pipe Replacement

• Modernizes Your Drinking Water Pipes
  While copper pipe has been the choice of plumbers for generations, modern pipe systems are now made with flexible Pex pipe which can not only bend and is quicker and cheaper to install, but also doesn’t have the natural corrosive properties of metal pipe.
• Improves Water Quality
  Corrosion leads to heavy metals leaching into your drinking water system – and these effects begin very shortly after installation. By upgrading to plastic pipe you can not only avoid the repair issues that come with metal pipe but also enjoy cleaner water.
• Improves Water Pressure
  Corrosive leaching isn’t just bad for you, it’s bad for your water pressure. Sediment from the corrosive process clogs aerators and reduces water pressure causing a maintenance nightmare or worse. With non-corrosive pipe material your water system will flow smoother over time.
