FAQs

Why should I upgrade my plumbing pipes?

Upgrading your plumbing pipes can prevent leaks, improve water pressure, and increase the overall efficiency of your plumbing system. Old pipes made from materials like lead can also pose health risks, while modern materials are safer and more durable.

What types of piping materials are available for upgrades?

Several options are available, including copper, PEX (cross-linked polyethylene), PVC (polyvinyl chloride), and CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride). Each material has its own benefits and is suitable for different types of plumbing needs. For example, PEX is flexible and easy to install, while copper is highly durable and resists corrosion.

How long does a pipe upgrade take?

The duration of a pipe upgrade can vary based on the size of your home, the complexity of the plumbing system, and the type of material being installed. On average, a pipe upgrade for a standard-sized home can take anywhere from a few days to a week.

Will upgrading my pipes increase my home’s value?

Yes, upgrading your plumbing can increase your home's value. Modern, efficient plumbing systems add to the overall appeal of your property, making it more attractive to potential buyers. It also ensures that the home's plumbing is up to code and safer, which are significant selling points.

What are some signs that indicate I need to upgrade my pipes?

Common signs include low water pressure, frequent leaks, discolored water, and visible corrosion or rust on exposed pipes. If your home is older, it may also have outdated pipe materials like lead or galvanized steel, which need replacing.

How much does a typical pipe upgrade cost?

The cost of a pipe upgrade can vary widely based on the scope of the project, the materials used, and labor costs in your area. On average, homeowners can expect to pay between $2,000 and $5,000 for a whole-house pipe upgrade. It’s best to get a detailed estimate from a professional plumber to understand the specific costs for your project.

Quick and quality service. Great guys, dug up 2 tanks and pumped them both in a timely manner.
