FAQs
Why should I consider a whole-home pipe upgrade instead of spot repairs?
Frequent leaks, rusty water, or chronic low water pressure often indicate that the entire piping system is reaching the end of its service life. A comprehensive upgrade replaces outdated galvanized, polybutylene, or corroded copper lines with modern PEX or Type L copper, eliminating hidden weak spots, restoring full flow, and adding decades of reliability—all in a single project, rather than paying for repeated emergency repairs.
What pipe materials do you recommend for Fayetteville homes, and why?
For most residences, we suggest either PEX-A (cross-linked polyethylene) or Type L copper. PEX-A is flexible, resistant to scale and chlorine, and less prone to freezing damage, making installation faster and more affordable. Type L copper has a 50-plus-year life span, excellent heat tolerance, and natural biostatic properties that inhibit bacteria growth. We evaluate water chemistry, home age, and budget to help you choose the optimal material.
How long does a typical pipe replacement project take?
A full repipe on an average 2-bath Fayetteville home generally takes 2–4 working days. Day 1 involves isolating water service, mapping pipe runs, and rough-in of new lines. Day 2 focuses on completing the distribution network and pressure testing. Days 3–4 (if needed) cover fixture reconnections, drywall/paint patching, and final inspection. Larger homes, crawl-space complications, or concurrent bathroom remodels can extend the timeline.
Will my water be shut off the entire time during the upgrade?
No. We usually schedule only 4–8 hours of total water-off time. We install the new piping in parallel with the old lines, keep fixtures live overnight whenever possible, and switch over to the new system once it passes pressure and leak tests.
What factors influence the cost of a pipe upgrade in Fayetteville?
Key cost drivers include home size and number of fixtures, choice of material (PEX is roughly 20-30 % less than copper), accessibility of existing pipes (slab foundation vs. crawl space), code-required upgrades (e.g., seismic straps, pressure regulators), and finish work such as drywall repair and painting. We provide a detailed, no-obligation quote that itemizes each component so you can see exactly where your investment goes.
Do upgraded pipes add value to my property?
Absolutely. A documented whole-home repipe is a strong selling point in the Fayetteville market. Buyers gain peace of mind knowing the plumbing is lead-free, up to current code, and unlikely to need major repairs for decades. Appraisers often note new plumbing as a material improvement, which can boost home value and reduce time on market.
