    New Pipe Installation & Repiping

    A common question from homeowners is how long their plumbing will last, and the answer depends on the material. Well-maintained metal pipes can last upward of 100 years. PVC piping is more common nowadays, and those pipes can last about 50 years.

    When to consider repiping depends, too. You don’t necessarily need to repipe your home simply because the pipes are a certain age. If you have an older home, you may want to repipe it to bring the plumbing up to modern standards. You may also want to consider repiping if you’re experiencing problems. Once you start fixing an older plumbing system, it can set off a cascade. Full replacement will be more expensive initially, but it can save you a significant amount of money over the long term.

    We recommend proactive replacement based on the material you have. Many older homes have cast iron, copper, brass, and galvanized steel. It’s a good idea to replace those systems before they fully degrade. If you’re in a newer home with PVC or similar material, we recommend replacing those pipes as you near the 50-year mark. Proactive replacement will save you money over waiting for a problem to develop with the current plumbing.

    There are many signs that you may need new piping. Discolored water and water that smells bad are often due to corrosion or other degradation in the pipes. Loud pipes may be more than just an annoyance; they can indicate a systemic problem. Low water pressure is also a common issue with older pipes due to leaks or buildup within them.

    There are many benefits to new pipe installation:
    • Peace of mind
    • Improved water quality
    • Increased property value
    • Reduced water consumption
    • Less plumbing maintenance and repairs
