FAQs
Why should I consider upgrading the pipes in my Petros home or business?
Older galvanized or polybutylene pipes corrode, restrict water flow, and are more prone to leaks that can cause costly water damage. A modern pipe upgrade improves water pressure, water quality, and overall system reliability. It also adds value to your property and helps you meet current building codes, which may be required for insurance or when selling your home.
What pipe materials do you use for replacements, and how do I choose the best option?
We typically recommend PEX or copper for residential upgrades in Petros. PEX is flexible, affordable, resistant to scale and chlorine, and faster to install with minimal wall removal. Copper is durable, naturally antimicrobial, and has a long proven life span. During our free on-site assessment, we explain the pros and cons of each material, review water conditions in your neighborhood, and help you select the option that balances longevity, performance, and budget.
Will my daily routine be disrupted during the pipe upgrade?
Our hassle-free process is designed to keep you comfortable. We isolate work zones, use dust containment barriers, and coordinate water shut-offs at times that suit your schedule—often early morning or late afternoon. In most cases, we restore partial water service at the end of each day so you can still use bathrooms and kitchens overnight. We also perform a thorough clean-up before we leave the site.
How long does a typical pipe upgrade take in Petros?
A full repipe of an average 2-bathroom home generally takes 2–4 days, depending on access and wall type. Larger homes or commercial properties can take up to a week. We provide a detailed timeline before we start, and a dedicated project manager keeps you updated daily on progress and any changes.
Is the work covered by warranties or my homeowners insurance?
Yes. We provide a 25-year manufacturer’s warranty on PEX tubing, a 50-year warranty on copper piping, and a 10-year workmanship warranty on all labor. Many homeowners insurance policies offer premium discounts once outdated piping is replaced; we supply the documentation your insurer needs. While insurance usually won’t pay for the upgrade itself, it often covers damage from unexpected leaks discovered before we start.
How much will the upgrade cost, and do you offer financing?
Prices vary based on pipe material, home size, and accessibility, but most residential repipes in Petros range from $3,000 to $8,000. After our free inspection, you receive a fixed, itemized quote—no hidden fees. We partner with local lenders to offer 0% short-term and low-interest long-term financing so you can spread payments over 6 to 60 months, making your upgrade affordable without sacrificing quality.
