FAQs
What are the most common reasons homeowners in Jacksboro choose to upgrade their pipes?
In Jacksboro, many homes still rely on aging galvanized steel or polybutylene piping, both of which are prone to corrosion, leaks, and low water pressure. Upgrading to modern PEX or copper piping improves water quality, prevents unexpected plumbing failures, boosts home value, and ensures compliance with current building codes. Extreme temperature swings and hard-water conditions in our region also accelerate pipe wear, making proactive replacement a smart investment.
How do modern PEX and copper pipes compare in terms of durability and cost?
PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) piping is flexible, resistant to scale buildup, and typically costs 25â40 % less to install than rigid copper. Copper, however, has a proven 50-year lifespan, exceptional heat tolerance, and natural antimicrobial properties. For many Jacksboro homeowners, PEX is the budget-friendly choice for interior re-pipes, while copper is preferred for exposed runs, higher-temperature lines, or customers seeking maximum longevity. Our plumbers can design hybrid systems that balance performance and price.
Will pipe upgrades disrupt my daily routine or require tearing out walls and floors?
Our modern re-pipe methods minimize disruption. We map your existing system with inspection cameras and infrared scanners, then use strategic access pointsâoften through closets or attic spacesâto pull new lines. In most cases, only small drywall patches are needed, and water is shut off for a few hours rather than days. We coordinate with you in advance so fixtures are restored before evening, keeping downtime and cleanup to a minimum.
Do I need a permit for pipe replacement in Jacksboro, and can you handle the paperwork?
Yes. Campbell County requires permits for full or partial re-pipes to ensure compliance with the 2018 International Residential Code (IRC) and local amendments. Modern Solutions Plumbing obtains the permit, schedules any required inspections, and provides you with documentation for your records or resale disclosures. This service is included in our project quote, so you never have to navigate city hall on your own.
What kind of warranty do you offer on new piping systems?
We stand behind our workmanship with a 10-year labor warranty and register manufacturer warranties of up to 25 years on PEX and 50 years on copper. Should an issue arise due to installation error, we repair it at no cost. Material defects are covered directly by the manufacturer, and we assist with any claims. Routine yearly inspections are complimentary for the first two years to ensure your system performs exactly as promised.
How long does a typical whole-house re-pipe take and what does it cost?
In a standard 2-bath Jacksboro home, a complete PEX re-pipe usually takes 2â3 days and ranges from $5,500 to $8,000, depending on accessibility and fixture count. Copper projects take 3â5 days and average $9,000 to $12,000. We provide a detailed, itemized estimate after an on-site evaluation, outlining labor, materials, permits, drywall repair, and cleanup so there are no surprises. Financing options and same-as-cash plans are available to spread the cost over 12â60 months.
