Why you need polybutylene or copper pipes replaced:

  • They are prone to cracking and leaking. Polybutylene pipes are made of a material that is susceptible to stress cracking. This means that they can crack under pressure, even if the pressure is not very high. When polybutylene pipes crack, they can leak water, which can cause water damage to your home.
  • They may not be covered by your home insurance. Some insurance companies will not cover water damage caused by polybutylene pipes. This means that you may be responsible for the cost of repairs if your polybutylene pipes leak.
  • They are not as energy-efficient as other types of pipes. Polybutylene pipes are not as good at conducting heat as other types of pipes, such as copper. This means that they can lose more heat when transporting water, which can lead to higher energy bills.
  • They are no longer manufactured. Polybutylene pipes are no longer manufactured, so if you have a leak, you may not be able to find replacement pipes.

F.A.Q.

What is “hard water” and why does it corrode your copper pipes?

Hard water is water with a high concentration of dissolved minerals like calcium, magnesium and other metals. Over time, these metals can wear out the inner lining of copper pipes, eventually creating pinhole leaks.

What is repiping?

Repiping is the process of replacing all of the pipes in a home’s plumbing system. This can be done for a variety of reasons, such as:

  • To upgrade to a newer, more efficient type of pipe
  • To prepare for a home addition or renovation
  • To replace old pipes that are no longer in use and that may create pin holes and flooding

How long does repiping take?

The amount of time it takes to repiping a home will vary depending on the size of the home and the type of pipes being used. However, it typically takes 3-5 days to complete a repiping project depending on the size of the house.
