FAQs

What do you mean by “fully stocked trucks,” and how does it benefit my pipe upgrade project?

Each service vehicle we send to Strawberry Plains is loaded with a broad inventory of pipe, fittings, valves, specialty tools, and replacement parts. Because our technicians have the most commonly used materials on board, we can start and finish the majority of pipe-upgrade jobs in a single visit—eliminating delays caused by trips to supply houses and saving you both time and labor costs.

Which types of pipe upgrades do you handle for homes and businesses in Strawberry Plains?

We replace or upsize water-supply, drain, and gas lines; convert outdated galvanized or polybutylene systems to modern materials; add new branch lines for remodels; and install pressure-boosting or water-filtration piping. Whether it’s a whole-house repipe, a commercial copper re-sleeve, or a simple section replacement, our crew is equipped to deliver code-compliant results.

How can I tell if my property needs a full pipe upgrade instead of a simple repair?

Persistent low water pressure, discolored water, recurring pinhole leaks, visible corrosion, or pipes older than 40–50 years typically indicate that spot repairs will only be temporary. A free on-site evaluation lets us pressure-test lines, inspect for buildup with cameras, and determine whether a comprehensive upgrade will be more economical and reliable long-term.

What modern piping materials do you recommend, and why?

For water lines we generally suggest PEX-A or Type L copper. PEX-A is flexible, freeze-resistant, and quick to install with fewer fittings, while copper withstands high temperatures and offers proven 50-plus-year longevity. For drains, we use PVC or ABS, which are resistant to chemicals and root intrusion. All options meet Tennessee plumbing codes and carry manufacturers’ warranties.

Will upgrading my pipes mean digging up my yard or tearing out walls?

Not necessarily. Whenever conditions allow, we employ minimally invasive methods such as pipe-pulling, epoxy lining, and PEX home-run systems that can often be routed through existing chases or attic spaces. When wall access is unavoidable, we cut neat, repairable openings and coordinate drywall and finish work so your home is restored quickly.

How long will the upgrade take and what will it cost?

A single-bathroom home repipe can often be completed in one day, while larger homes or commercial buildings may take two to five days. Costs vary with pipe length, material choice, and accessibility, but most residential upgrades range from $3,500 to $8,000. After our free inspection we provide a firm, written quote that includes parts, labor, permits, and cleanup—no surprise add-ons.
