Re-piping

Complete Home & Office Re-Piping
Serving the Silicon Valley

Basically, copper re-piping involves the complete replacement of all of the existing hot and cold water pipes in your home, condominium, apartment or commercial complex. A preferred method of repair historically involved the replacement of galvanized pipes with copper ones; however recent advancements in modern plastic polymers have made other options available.

This process typically refers to the replacement of existing pipes in a building with new superior copper pipes and fittings. Re-piping is not limited to water pipes. It can also be applied to gas and sewer pipes respectively. Since there is no effective way of removing buildup or reversing the scaling process with metallic piping systems, home and business owners alike are eventually forced into re-piping their entire plumbing system.
