What Is A Repipe and What Does It Include?
A repipe is when all the old, worn-down plumbing lines in your home or business are replaced with new, more efficient plumbing lines. This is usually necessary for older buildings that have faulty plumbing, are in constant need of plumbing repairs, have Polybutylene, lead, Galvanized, or Kitec pipes, or are getting ready for a remodel.

Read below for more details about what is involved in repiping your home or business:
Step 1: Have Your Home Inspected by The Repipe Expert™
Start the process by giving The Repipe Expert™ a call at (800) 899-5756. We’ll come by to inspect your home, business, or property, explain any issues we notice and give you a free quote.
Step 2: Our experienced plumbers come to your home or business to repipe
The second step includes a team of Repipe Experts coming to your home or business to get the repiping done. We bring all the tools, materials, and expertise to Do the Job Right.
With every job, we carefully reveal only the pipes that need to be worked on, leaving the rest of your home untouched. We also take extra precautions to protect your floors with tarps, and we use plastic to keep any dust contained. Our goal is to protect your home and enable you to continue to occupy it.
Step 3: A city inspector ensures the job is done to code
Before we finish the job, we go through the proper channels to inspect the new pipes in your home or business.
Step 4: We finish the job by closing up the holes and making it look like we were never there
Lastly, we take the time to mud, texture, and paint the area of the cuts – restoring the areas to look brand new. Many companies will only fix the pipes, and you’ll have to hire another company to patch up any cuts they had to make. At Arizona Integrity Plumbing, we make sure we leave your home looking better than we found it.

When determining how long it takes to repipe a house or business, it depends on the amount of work that needs to be completed.

When you get an inspection and quote from The Repipe Expert™, we will be able to give you an estimate on the length of time required to complete the project.

The cost of repiping a house or business depends on the amount of work that needs to be completed, but the average cost for repiping a home is usually between $4,000 to $15,000.
