THE REPIPING PROCESS
Re-piping is the process of replacing the water supply pipes in a house or building. It is a complete replacement of your supply plumbing system. Repiping is the process of installing a new water line plumbing system. This process usually includes removing old, readily accessible pipes and then installing the new plumbing system. Standard repiping projects include the installation of all new hot and cold domestic water piping from the water source to all existing faucets and fixtures. Drain replacement and fixtures are not included unless specifically included in the proposal.
Prep work
A repipe is more involved than fixing a clogged toilet or even repairing a single pipe. With a repipe, you will replace your home's entire water supply system.
In order to access your water lines, holes will need to be cut in your drywall and sometimes other areas. Drywall creates some dust when cut, so care should be taken to cover your furniture. At the time of your home evaluation, we will inform you of the areas that will likely need access.
The belongings below the vanities should be removed. Our plumbers will pull any necessary permits required from the city, which are already included in the cost of your repipe.
Your water will be turned off as work begins. Many repipes can be completed in 1 day, but some may take longer depending on the complexity and size of the home. You will know upfront how long your home is estimated to take. Regardless, you will have water every evening.
The Repipe
Now it’s time for our repiping plumbers to remove your old failing plumbing system and replace it with new pex or copper piping. This will include accessing rooms wherever you have plumbing fixtures, the kitchen, baths, wet bar areas, and the attic in most cases. In some cases, getting access to your plumbing from a different room is better. We Do Repipes will always take care to move through your home with care and inform you in advance of your repipe plan.

Finishing work
At this point, the expert crew ensures everything is operating correctly. Your plumbing system is tested for integrity, and all connections are checked. A professional site inspection is critical to a successful repipe. Once the plumbing system is inspected and given the green light, it’s time to clean up the mess. It’s time to patch the holes in the wall and repaint. After the new piping system is installed, the water is turned back on, and the plumbing system is pressure tested and then flushed out.
The repiping process takes 1-3 days to install the new piping system. After the actual plumbing replacement is complete, some necessary wall repairs will be done. Unless you opt to do your own drywall patching, this will be done in the final phase of your repipe.
