Signs It's Time to Repipe
One leak means repair, but a pattern may mean new pipe.
- A third or fourth leak in recent years
- Gray PB pipe (polybutylene plastic)
- Rusty or brown water from the taps
Our faith, our standard
Straight Answers Before You Repipe
We believe honest work honors God. Here is what that looks like.
Spot Repairs Come First
For one or two leaks on decent pipe, Cody will say fix them and save money.
One Price, Start to Finish
Pipe, fittings, valves and haul-away, in writing first. If we find something new behind a wall, we stop and ask.
Plumbing for a Greater Purpose
A portion of every job goes to a local ministry.
What to expect with a repipe
Before We Arrive
We walk the house and give a written price, pipe choice and rough schedule.
During the Visit
Over several days, we protect your home and tell you each morning when water's off.
When We Leave
Fixtures and lines tested, openings left neat for patching, old pipe hauled away.
How a repipe works
New Lines Through the Attic and Walls
New lines run through the attic to each fixture, bypassing old slab pipe.
- No more patching old pipe
- Better water pressure at every tap
- Slab lines bypassed for good
The honest downsides
- It takes days, not hours, with one plumber
- Drywall openings need patching and paint after

Whole-Home Repiping FAQs
How long does a whole-home repipe take?
Several days with one plumber, depending on house size and attic access. You get a schedule up front and daily water-off times.
Will I have water during the repipe?
Mostly, yes. Water is off while we connect sections, and we plan for water at night whenever we can.
Do I need to repipe if I have polybutylene?
Polybutylene is known to fail without warning, and some insurers ask about it. We'll look and tell you how yours is holding up.
Who patches the drywall?
We keep openings small and neat. Before we start, we tell you if patching is in our price or a hand-off.
How much does it cost to repipe a house?
Most homes run $5,000 to $16,500, depending on size, bathrooms and pipe type. You get one written number before we start.
