FAQs

Why should I consider upgrading my pipes?

Upgrading your pipes can prevent leaks, improve water pressure, and ensure your plumbing system is up to current standards. Older pipes made from materials like galvanized steel or lead can corrode or leach harmful substances into your water. Newer materials, like PEX or copper, are more durable and safer, providing better long-term performance.

How do I know if my pipes need to be upgraded?

Signs that your pipes may need upgrading include frequent leaks, reduced water pressure, discolored water, and a metallic taste. If your home is over 50 years old and has not had a plumbing upgrade, it's a good idea to have an inspection to assess the condition of your pipes.

What types of pipe materials are available for upgrades?

Common materials for pipe upgrades include PEX, copper, and CPVC. PEX is flexible, easy to install, and resistant to corrosion. Copper is durable and has a long lifespan, but it can be more expensive. CPVC is a cost-effective option that is also resistant to corrosion and scaling.

How long does a pipe upgrade typically take?

The duration of a pipe upgrade depends on the size of your home and the complexity of the existing plumbing system. On average, a complete pipe replacement for an average-sized home can take anywhere from a few days to a week. Our team will provide a detailed timeline during the consultation process.

Will upgrading my pipes increase the value of my home?

Yes, upgrading your pipes can increase the value of your home. Modern, efficient plumbing is a significant selling point for potential buyers, as it reduces the risk of future plumbing issues and enhances the reliability of the water supply. Additionally, it shows that the home has been well-maintained.

What is the cost of upgrading my home's pipes?

The cost of upgrading your home's pipes varies based on the size of your home, the type of materials chosen, and the complexity of the installation. On average, homeowners can expect to pay between $2,000 to $15,000 for a complete pipe replacement. We provide detailed estimates to help you understand the costs involved and offer financing options if needed.

What our customers say

Billy and Zach were the plumbers that came out to re pipe my house. They were great with answering any questions I had. Were very knowledgeable and friendly.

Felecia A.

Brad Duffy went above and beyond to fix my water pipes. He did excellent work very quickly. I would recommend him to everyone.

Lorrie E.

Chase Rost came by today and fixed a pipe that had burst underneath my stairs, and let me tell you, it wasn't an easy job. There was no access to the pipe, so he had to cut an opening through the wall. He was extremely friendly, surprisingly quick, and he put up with my endless questions about the details of plumbing while working. Overall a great experience. My wallet is fair bit lighter, but I have peace of mind knowing that at least this pipe shouldn't burst again.

Ben S.

Brandon & John did an awesome job with my house. They dug up the front yard and into my basement to put new piping as the old piping was galvanized. They answered all my questions and were very friendly. I would highly recommend them to assist you in your needs.

Christian C.

Ernest was super flexible with us on time because of our busy schedule. Then ran into an issue because our piping is from 1970. He made extra calls and trip to get an adapter and get us fixed. Explained every step and was super friendly and professional. Thanks for taking care of us and our family!

Amazing professional plumber. Helped me solved my cloak pips

Stephen T.

I had a completely blocked drain line. Called about 5 plumbers but no one could come out same day. Finally HEP bailed me out. I spent hours on a Sunday trying to figure it out and now Monday Jason Palmer arrived and figured it out in about 30 seconds. It was unclogged 5 minutes later. Jason also suggested a long term fix for the drainage issue as well as noticed my water lines were in bad shape and likely to fail. Both will be taken care of in a few days. Hopefully the installers are as great as Jason.

Charles P.

Tim and Stephen came out and did a great job, finding the leak, cutting the slab and replacing it

DeAndre C.

Tim White came out same day and was very thorough. And friendly. We are waiting for a new water service line to be installed and they are coming out tomorrow. Very fast service!

Michael R.

Vladimir Vysotsky with HEP called prior to arrival, he arrived exactly when he said he would. He was very professional and quickly went under our TINY crawl space and accessed the situation without any hesitation. He gave his professional opinion and options to fix it very quickly. Thank you so much for your help in solving our plumbing needs. DReese
