Maintenance
We inspect visible and hidden plumbing using diagnostic tools and review your home’s water pressure, flow, and age of existing materials (e.g., galvanized steel, copper, polybutylene, etc.).
We design a re-pipe plan using modern materials like PEX or copper. You’ll receive a clear breakdown of locations, routes, wall access points, and timelines.
We handle all necessary city permits and prepare your home (cover floors, protect furniture, coordinate wall access).
Old piping is removed or bypassed. New lines are routed with minimal wall damage using clean, strategic cut-outs.
We test the entire system under pressure, check all fixtures, and backfill, seal, or patch wall openings.
We walk you through the work done, ensure satisfaction, and leave your home clean.

How do I know if my home needs a full re-pipe?
Signs include low water pressure, discolored or metallic-tasting water, frequent leaks, or visible corrosion on exposed pipes. If your home is 30+ years old with original plumbing (especially galvanized steel or polybutylene), it may be time to re-pipe for safety, performance, and code compliance.
What happens during a full home re-pipe?
We inspect your existing plumbing, plan a new layout using PEX or copper, pull city permits, and replace old pipes with minimal wall access. After testing the system for leaks and restoring water flow, we patch walls and clean up — all with care and efficiency.
How long does a re-pipe take?
For most homes, re-piping takes:
Will I be without water during the process?
We try to limit full shutoff to a few hours during key stages. For multi-day projects, we coordinate carefully to ensure at least one working bathroom or kitchen area whenever possible. You’ll never be left without essential access for long.
What type of piping material do you use?
We typically use PEX or copper, depending on your home and preferences.
Is a full re-pipe worth the investment?
Yes — a full re-pipe restores water quality, pressure, and long-term reliability, eliminates hidden leaks, and increases property value. It also ensures your plumbing is up to code and safer for your family.
