FAQs
What makes your pipe upgrade service in Benton considered “cutting-edge”?
We combine trenchless repiping methods, smart leak-detection sensors, and corrosion-resistant piping materials such as cross-linked polyethylene (PEX-A) and Type L copper to deliver a system that lasts decades with minimal disruption to your home or business. Our technicians use video inspection and GPS pipe-mapping to plan the project, allowing us to replace or rehabilitate pipes through small access points rather than conventional digging.
How long does a typical trenchless pipe upgrade take compared with traditional replacement?
Traditional pipe replacement often requires 5–7 business days and extensive excavation. Our trenchless upgrade—using pipe-bursting or cured-in-place lining—usually finishes in 1–2 days, including site prep and final camera inspection. Because we avoid large trenches, cleanup time is minimal and landscaping or hardscape features remain intact.
Will upgraded pipes improve my water quality and pressure?
Yes. Old galvanized or PVC lines tend to corrode, leach metals, and accumulate sediment. Switching to PEX-A or copper eliminates corrosion, resists biofilm buildup, and maintains a smooth interior wall, increasing flow rate by up to 40 %. Coupled with optimized pipe sizing and pressure-balancing valves, most homeowners notice clearer water and more consistent pressure immediately after the upgrade.
Do you handle Benton and Arkansas permit requirements for pipe upgrades?
Absolutely. We coordinate with Benton’s Utilities Department and adhere to Arkansas Plumbing Code §17-37. Our project manager secures all necessary permits, schedules mandatory inspections, and provides homeowners with documentation for insurance and resale purposes. You don’t have to navigate any paperwork; we handle it start to finish.
What kind of warranty do you offer on new piping systems?
Material warranties are 25 years for PEX-A and 50 years for Type L copper. In addition, we back our workmanship with a 10-year labor warranty that covers leaks, fittings, and sensor-integration issues. Annual maintenance checks during the first three years are complimentary, ensuring your new system continues to operate at peak performance.
Is financing available for large-scale pipe upgrades?
Yes. We partner with two Benton-area credit unions and GreenSky to offer 0 % APR for six months or low-interest plans up to 72 months. Approval decisions usually arrive within minutes, and you can bundle the cost of optional smart-home water sensors and whole-house filtration into the same payment plan.
