What It Is
A repipe replaces the water supply lines in your home with new pipe. It's the lasting fix when old pipe keeps leaking, corroding or choking off your water pressure.
Whole-House Repipes
Copper, PEX and more, to end recurring leaks, rusty water and low pressure for good.
Signs You Need It
- Leaks that keep showing up in different spots
- Rusty or discolored water
- Low pressure throughout the house
- Polybutylene or galvanized pipe in the home
What To Expect
We look at your current pipe, talk through PEX versus copper, and plan the route to keep wall openings to a minimum. During the work we keep you informed about when water will be off, then pressure test the new system. Financing is available for larger jobs.

What We Handle
-
PEX Repiping
PEX is a flexible plastic pipe that resists corrosion and scale. It bends around corners with fewer fittings, which often means fewer wall openings.
What's included
- New PEX supply lines to every fixture
- New shutoff valves
- Connection to your main
- Full system pressure test
Common signs you need this
- Corroded or leaking old pipe
- Want a faster, less invasive repipe
-
Copper Repiping
Copper is a proven, long-lasting choice for water lines. Some homeowners prefer it, and it's a good match where existing copper is already in place.
What's included
- New copper supply lines
- Soldered joints and new fittings
- New shutoff valves
- Full system pressure test
Common signs you need this
- Preference for metal pipe
- Pinhole leaks in older copper
-
Polybutylene & Galvanized Replacement
Polybutylene and galvanized steel pipe are known to fail with age. Replacing them before a major leak protects your home and restores good water pressure.
What's included
- Identifying old pipe types in your home
- Removing or bypassing the old lines
- New PEX or copper supply
- Pressure test and walkthrough
Common signs you need this
- Gray plastic pipe stamped PB
- Rusty water from galvanized lines
- Pressure that keeps getting worse
-
Partial Repipes
Sometimes only one part of the house has problem pipe, like an addition, a single bathroom, or one long run. We replace just that section and tie it into your good lines.
What's included
- Replacing a section or branch
- Tying new pipe into existing lines
- New valves where needed
- Pressure test of the new section
Common signs you need this
- Repeat leaks in one area
- Remodel opening up walls in one room
-
Leak & Pressure Diagnosis
Before recommending a repipe, we find out what's actually wrong. Sometimes it's a single valve or regulator, and sometimes it's the pipe itself.
What's included
- Water pressure testing
- Checking the pressure-reducing valve
- Inspecting visible pipe and fittings
- A clear recommendation on repair or repipe
Common signs you need this
- Weak flow at several fixtures
- Pressure drops when two fixtures run
- Frequent small leaks
