Pipe Repair FAQ
What are the signs that I need a full repipe instead of just a repair?
If your home is over 30 years old and you are experiencing multiple leaks, low water pressure across several fixtures, or water that is discolored (brown or rusty), it signals widespread pipe corrosion. In these cases, a full repipe is the most economical, long-term solution.
How long does a whole-home repiping project take?
The timeline depends on the size of your home, but a standard residential repipe generally takes 3 to 5 days. We coordinate the work to ensure water is only shut off for minimal periods, often just a few hours a day, keeping disruption to a minimum.
Is PEX piping safe for drinking water?
Yes. Modern PEX tubing is certified for potable water and has been used widely for decades. It is highly resistant to corrosive chemicals and is one of the safest and most durable materials available today.

Absolutely. All pipe repairs and whole-home repiping projects are backed by a comprehensive warranty. We are committed to upfront pricing and guaranteed quality on every job we perform in San Diego County.
