Leaks that keep coming back, rusty water or low pressure? A repipe replaces old supply lines throughout the house, planned and priced before we start.
Available in: Norfolk, Winchester & Wilmington
When pipes fail one after another, it's usually the pipe itself, not bad luck.
Older homes often still have galvanized steel, polybutylene or corroded copper lines. They narrow, rust and leak with age. Our Norfolk branch works on older homes with cast iron and galvanized pipe all the time, and every branch does repipes.
A whole house repiping project replaces the supply lines from the main to each fixture. Your plumber explains the options and gives you a written price before any wall is opened.

Remodeling anywayBest time to replace linesOlder homes in our area often have one or more of these. Here's why each one fails, and what we put in instead.
Common in older homes. It rusts from the inside, narrowing the pipe until the pressure drops and the water runs brown.
Found in some very old homes and service lines, and no longer allowed for drinking water lines. If we find it, we'll show you and plan to replace it.
Gray plastic pipe used from the late 1970s to the mid 1990s. It's known to crack and fail at the fittings without warning.
Long-lasting, but older copper can develop pinhole leaks. A few spots can be repaired. Leak after leak usually means it's time.
Flexible, so it bends around corners with fewer fittings, and it's more forgiving in a freeze than rigid pipe.
A little stiffer and lower in cost than PEX-A. Both are proven, and your plumber will explain which suits your home and budget.

We won't push a repipe when a repair will do.
We plan the route, open only what we need, run new lines and test everything before walls close.

There are a lot of companies in our area that will look up your ZIP code and not even go out and work on them due to the age of the home. When they can't do that, we swoop in.Sean, service manager, Norfolk

Cost, timing and whether it's worth it.
It depends on the size of the home, the number of bathrooms and fixtures, the pipe material, and how much wall and ceiling has to be opened. We give you a written price after a free in-home estimate, before any work starts.
It depends on the home. Your plumber will give you a schedule with the estimate, and we'll tell you when the water will be off each day.
If you're fixing leak after leak, or the water is rusty or the pressure is poor, a repipe usually costs less over time than repeated repairs and water damage. If it's one bad section, a repair is the better call, and we'll tell you so.
Both last. PEX is flexible, quicker to run through finished walls and usually costs less. Copper is rigid and long-proven. Your plumber will explain which suits your home and budget.
