Nothing lasts forever and your home’s pipes are no exception. Older pipes suffer from frequent leaks, corrosion, low water pressure, and may even leach harmful chemicals into your drinking water.

Repiping replaces your outdated plumbing system with modern PEX water lines, eliminates leaky pipes, and gives you peace of mind that your water supply isn’t being contaminated.

Does Your Home Need Repiping?

Typically, household plumbing systems last 50 years. You will know your plumbing needs replacing when you begin experiencing:

  • Frequent water leaks
  • Rust-colored water
  • Metallic tasting water
  • Low water pressure
  • Noisy pipes

Additionally, if your home’s pipes are made out of lead, galvanized steel, or polybutylene, it is recommended that you replace them even if they are otherwise functioning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should polybutylene pipes be replaced even if they are working fine?

Polybutylene pipes, commonly used in homes from the 1970s into the 1990s, should be replaced due to their tendency to degrade and fail catastrophically. These pipes are particularly vulnerable to chemicals found in our water supply, such as chlorine, which can cause the interior of the pipes to flake and become brittle, leading to leaks or even rapid, unexpected failure.
Even a minor leak can cause serious damage if not detected in time, and a completely burst pipe will quickly cause thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars in damage.
Galvanized steel pipes were an early replacement option for lead pipes and were commonly used from the 1940s to the 1960s. These pipes used a layer of natural zinc to protect the steel from corrosion. However, this zinc layer often contains impurities such as lead, and over time as the zinc wears down the concentration of lead along the surface of the pipe increases. This means that towards the end of their lifespan, galvanized steel pipes may begin releasing dangerous levels of lead into your drinking water.
