FAQs
What is whole-home repiping and why might I need it?
Whole-home repiping is the process of removing most or all of the existing water supply piping in a house and replacing it with new pipe, fittings, and valves. It is typically recommended when the current plumbing system is made of outdated or failing materials (such as galvanized steel, polybutylene, or severely corroded copper), or when leaks, low pressure, rusty water, and frequent repairs become common. Repiping gives you brand-new, code-compliant piping throughout the property, eliminating hidden leaks, improving water quality and pressure, and adding value and peace of mind for decades.
What signs indicate my Jasper home may require repiping?
Typical warning signs include: (1) recurring leaks in walls or ceilings; (2) rusty, brown, or discolored water; (3) noticeable drops in water pressure when more than one fixture is on; (4) a plumbing system that is 40+ years old and made of galvanized steel or polybutylene; (5) widespread corrosion on exposed pipes; and (6) water bills that keep climbing without an obvious cause. If you notice two or more of these issues, an in-home assessment from a licensed Jasper plumber can confirm whether partial repairs or a full repipe is the safest, most economical solution.
Which piping materials do you use and which is best for Jasper’s climate?
We primarily install PEX, type-L copper, and CPVC. Each has advantages: • PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) – Flexible, freeze-resistant, cost-effective, and quick to install, it is the most popular option in north Alabama today. • Copper – Extremely durable, naturally antimicrobial, and heat-tolerant, copper is ideal for customers who prefer metal piping and plan to stay in their homes for decades. • CPVC – More rigid than PEX, resistant to chlorine, and usually less expensive than copper, CPVC is a solid mid-range choice. For Jasper’s moderate winters and hot, humid summers, PEX offers the best balance of longevity, energy efficiency, and protection against burst pipes during cold snaps. However, we always review budget, water quality, and homeowner preference before making a final recommendation.
How long does a whole-house repipe take, and will I have to move out?
Most single-family homes in Jasper (1,200–2,500 sq. ft.) can be fully repiped in 2–5 working days. Larger or multi-story homes may take up to a week. We plan the project in phases so that you still have at least one operable bathroom most of the time and can remain in the house. Drywall cuts are kept small and are patched after the plumbing inspection. Noise, brief water shut-offs, and some dust are inevitable, but you do not need to move out or stay in a hotel unless you prefer to.
How much does whole-home repiping cost in Jasper, and what factors affect the price?
In the Jasper area, a complete repipe for a typical three-bedroom, two-bath home generally ranges from $4,500 to $12,000. Pricing is influenced by: • Square footage and number of fixtures • Choice of PEX, CPVC, or copper • Accessibility of crawl spaces, attics, and walls • Need for additional valve replacements, water-heater tie-ins, or main-line upgrades • Amount of drywall/ceiling repair required • Permit and inspection fees set by Walker County or the City of Jasper We provide a written, fixed-price quote after an on-site evaluation so you know the exact cost before work begins.
Are permits, inspections, and warranties included when you repipe homes in Jasper?
Yes. Jasper and Walker County both require plumbing permits and a final inspection for whole-home repiping. Our team secures all permits, schedules the inspector, and meets them on site. After the work is approved, we patch the walls and provide documentation of code compliance. We back our labor with a 10-year workmanship warranty and pass along the manufacturer’s 25-year PEX or CPVC warranty (or 50-year limited copper warranty). If any workmanship-related leak occurs during the warranty period, repairs are performed at no charge.
