What is Repiping?
Repiping is the process of replacing the existing pipes in a home or building's plumbing system. This is typically done when the pipes are old, corroded, leaking, or made of materials that are no longer considered safe or efficient, such as lead or galvanized steel.
The repiping process involves removing the old pipes and installing new ones, which can be made from modern materials like copper, PEX, or CPVC. This ensures the plumbing system operates efficiently, reduces the risk of leaks and water damage, and can improve water quality and pressure.
When to Consider Repiping Your Home or Business
Repiping may be necessary if your plumbing system shows signs of age or damage, such as:
- Low water pressure
- Rusty or discolored water
- Repeated leaks or slab leaks
- Extensive water damage
- Older pipe materials (galvanized, polybutylene, lead)

If you've noticed a leaking pipe or other problem, damage to your plumbing could be the culprit. Most pipes get damaged due to the following reasons:
