Repiping, What it is and When it’s Needed
Basically, copper repiping is completely replacing all of the existing hot and cold water pipes in a home, condominium, apartment or commercial building. A common method of repair is to replace the old material with the latest more durable types of pipes. Repiping requires the complete removal of existing pipes in a building, replacing them with new superior material and fittings. Repiping applies to more than just water pipes. It can also be applied to gas and sewer pipes as well.
Since there is no way to effectively remove buildup or reverse the scaling process with metallic piping systems, home and business owners with scaled or corroded pipes are eventually forced to repipe the entire plumbing system.
The re-piping process is also known as repipe, re-pipe, re-piping, repiping, new piping, re-plumbing, re plumbing and piping replacement.
How do I know if repiping is necessary?
A repipe may be necessary if you are experiencing any or all of the following:
Leaky pipes
Wet Foundations
Pipe corrosion
Low or dramatic drop in water pressure
Bad water odor or taste
Rusty Water (or brown water)
Why choose a Repipe Specialist over a plumber?
When you are thinking about the issue of having to repipe your home, condominium, apartment building or office, you are going to want to think about the type of company that can offer you the most experience, best prices and newest in plumbing technology. They should be able to provide plenty of references, be licensed and bonded as well as registered and in good standing with the BBB.
Repiping Specialists only do repipes, which enables them to complete your project quickly and efficiently as well as provide you with the best possible prices. Most homes can be completely repiped on just one day. Another benefit of using a Repipe Specialist, is they can often professionally repipe your home for about half the price of a typical plumber or plumbing contractor, who doesn’t specialize in repiping and typically charges twice as much for a repipe job that doesn’t provide the same excellent quality of the materials and craftsmanship.
Since every repipe job requires making some holes in your walls, repipe specialists have qualified, experienced technicians who are specially trained to professionally patch the walls and provide you with a smooth, clean surface as well as stucco any exterior stucco surfaces while keeping your house neat and clean, protecting your floors and cleaning up at the end of every day.
The Rewards and Benefits of Copper Repiping
The benefits of repiping are, reduced plumbing problems and costs, clean/clear rust free water, better volume and water flow, better tasting drinking water (a great feature if you plan on selling your home or building.
After repiping most people are surprised to discover they can shower, wash dishes, water the lawn, wash laundry, and use faucets and fixtures at the same time while maintaining good water pressure.
Perhaps you have put off repiping because you think it’s too much hassle or that it might be too costly. But the price of extensive water damage can rapidly overcome the expense of repiping. If repiping is on your horizon, make sure to get an estimate from a repipe specialist if you want top quality results at the best price possible.
