The first questions you probably want to know:
- Do I need to repipe my business? We know it is stressful thinking about the time and money required to repipe your business. The truth is…eventually, yes. The good news is maybe not right now. You should call us out to get an honest and reasonable assessment and quote detailing your options. We might be able to extend the life of your plumbing system another 5-10 years.
- How much will it cost? Most homes will run in the multiple tens-of-thousands of dollars to repipe. If you think about your business, the length of your main line run to the street, and more, you should expect at least that amount. Here’s the good news, our team will work with you to determine which parts you’re responsible for, which the property owner is for (if applicable), and more. When it comes to commercial properties there are a lot of variables, but our team will give you a realistic quote that you should be able to work with.
While a plumbing system is built to last a long time, it will not last forever. After years of continuous use, pipes may eventually need to be replaced entirely through a process called repiping.
What is Repiping?
In residential or commercial repiping, we switch out existing pipes for new pipes. We can run lines through an attic and down or dig around a structure’s exterior.
Both methods allow us to install new piping without causing significant damage to the property. There is minimal interruption, and the repiping can often be completed within one day.
Why Repipe?
Deteriorated pipes can result in increased water bills and property damage. And the longer you let it go, the worse the problems may become.
When Would Repiping be Necessary?
There comes a time when pipes will deteriorate to a point where they need to be replaced. Here are some of the signs that indicate it’s time for new ones:
- Low water pressure
- Dark flakes in water
- Leaky pipes
- Strange tasting water
- Rusty colored water
- More than one pinhole leak within a given year
- Inconsistent water temperatures
- Water takes a long time to heat up
If you notice signs of deterioration, contact us so we can evaluate the condition of the pipes. We’ll determine whether it’s time to consider repiping or whether repairs would suffice.
