FAQs
Why should I consider upgrading my old plumbing pipes in Benton?
Older galvanized steel or polybutylene pipes are prone to corrosion, mineral buildup, and unexpected leaks. Upgrading to modern materials like PEX or copper improves water quality, reduces the risk of burst pipes, increases energy efficiency, and can raise the overall value of your Benton home. A proactive upgrade can also prevent costly water damage and mold remediation later on.
What types of pipe materials do you install for modern plumbing upgrades?
We primarily install PEX and Type L copper. PEX is flexible, resistant to freezing, and often more affordable to install because it requires fewer fittings. Type L copper offers superior longevity, heat resistance, and is 100 % recyclable. During your consultation, we evaluate water chemistry, home layout, and budget to recommend the best solution or a hybrid system that uses both materials strategically.
How long does a typical pipe upgrade project take?
Most single-family homes in Benton can be fully repiped in 2–5 days. The timeline depends on the size of the house, accessibility of existing pipes, and whether walls or floors need to be opened and repaired. We provide a detailed schedule before work begins and keep you informed of progress each day.
Will upgrading my pipes improve water pressure or quality?
Yes. Removing corrosion-clogged or undersized pipes eliminates flow restrictions, leading to more consistent water pressure at fixtures. New piping also eliminates internal rust, lead, and biofilm buildup, delivering clearer, better-tasting water. If you combine the upgrade with a whole-house filtration system or water softener, you can further enhance water quality and appliance life.
Do I need to leave my home while the pipe upgrade is performed?
In most cases, you can stay in your home. We isolate sections of the plumbing so that at least one bathroom and the kitchen retain water service at the end of each workday. For extensive projects where water must be shut off for more than a few hours, we’ll schedule work to minimize inconvenience or arrange temporary water solutions if you prefer to remain onsite.
What does a pipe upgrade cost, and do you offer financing or warranty coverage?
Pricing depends on square footage, pipe material, number of fixtures, and any drywall or flooring repairs required. In Benton, whole-home repipes typically range from $4,000 to $12,000. We provide a fixed, itemized quote after an on-site inspection. Flexible financing plans with low monthly payments are available, and every pipe upgrade comes with a 25-year material warranty and a 5-year labor warranty for your peace of mind.
