Repipes - Replace Old Interior Plumbing
Replacing Old Interior Plumbing for Safer, Cleaner Water
Most homeowners focus on their water service line — but what many don’t realize is that the plumbing inside your home can also contain lead, corrosion, and aging materials that affect water quality and pressure.
A full or partial repipe replaces outdated interior pipes, fittings, valves, and fixtures with modern, safe materials that last for decades.
If your home was built before 1986, or still has galvanized steel, old copper solder, or brass fixtures, a repipe may be one of the best long-term investments you can make in your home’s plumbing system.
Our Process
Our process is designed to be efficient, clean, and minimally disruptive:
Inspect your current plumbing and layout
Create a repipe plan tailored to your home
Replace old lines with modern piping
Install new shutoff valves and fixtures as needed
Patch and repair drywall access points
Test flow, pressure, and water quality
Clean the job site thoroughly before we leave
Most repipes are completed in one to two days, depending on the size of the home.
Why Consider a Repipe?
1. Lead Solder (Used Before 1986)
Copper pipes installed before 1986 almost always used lead-based solder at joints. This solder can leach lead into drinking water — especially when water sits overnight or when hot water is used for cooking.
2. Brass Valves and Fixtures Containing Lead
Until 2014, “lead-free” brass fixtures could legally contain up to 8% lead. Faucets, shutoff valves, hose bibs, and threaded fittings may still release trace amounts of lead into the water.
3. Old Galvanized Steel Pipes
Galvanized plumbing corrodes from the inside out. These pipes can trap lead particles from old service lines and later release them into your water.
They also cause low water pressure, rust-colored water, and frequent clogs.
4. Aging Copper Pipes with Pinhole Leaks
Older copper lines can develop pinhole leaks or corrosion, especially in areas with hard water. While copper is safe, deteriorating pipes can damage walls, floors, and appliances.
Who Should Consider Replacing Their Interior Plumbing?
✔ Homes Built Before 1986
These homes almost always contain lead solder and older brass plumbing.
✔ Homes With Galvanized Steel Plumbing
If you see low pressure, rust flakes, or discolored water — galvanized pipes are usually the cause.
✔ Homes Thinking About Lead Service Line Replacement
If you’re upgrading the service line outside, it’s the perfect time to update aging plumbing inside.
✔ Families With Infants, Children, or Pregnant Women
Reducing lead exposure from all plumbing sources is especially important for young children.
✔ Homes With Repeated Leaks or Poor Water Pressure
If you’re frequently repairing sections of your plumbing, a full repipe is more cost-effective and provides a clean slate.
✔ Homeowners Planning a Remodel
If you’re updating a kitchen or bath, replacing old plumbing behind walls prevents future leaks and contamination.
If your home still has galvanized, lead-soldered, or outdated plumbing, a repipe may be the safest solution.
