PEX Repiping Specialists
PEX repiping is the most efficient way to replace failing water lines in homes and multifamily properties. If your plumbing system is suffering from leaks, corrosion, low pressure, or aging galvanized or polybutylene pipes, a whole house PEX repipe provides a long term solution that restores reliability and water quality.
What Is PEX Repiping
PEX, or cross linked polyethylene, is a flexible and durable plumbing material designed to replace outdated water piping systems. A PEX repipe involves removing or abandoning old supply lines and installing a new PEX distribution system that delivers consistent water flow to every fixture.
Why Homeowners and Property Owners Choose PEX Repiping
- Resistant to corrosion, rust, and mineral buildup
- Flexible material reduces fittings and leak points
- Handles hot and cold water temperature changes
- Quicker installation compared to rigid piping systems
- Cost effective solution for whole house and multifamily repipes
Common Problems a PEX Repipe Solves
Many plumbing issues are caused by aging or failing pipes hidden behind walls or under slabs. PEX repiping addresses these problems at the source.
- Recurring water leaks or pinhole leaks
- Low or inconsistent water pressure
- Discolored or metallic tasting water
- Corroded galvanized or polybutylene piping
- Frequent plumbing repairs that never fully resolve the issue
Why Proper PEX Installation Matters
Not all PEX repipes are the same. Incorrect installation methods, poor fitting selection, or improper routing can lead to future failures. Our PEX repiping process focuses on correct manifold placement, proper support, pressure testing, and proven installation practices to prevent leaks, flow restrictions, and premature wear.

PEX vs Copper Repiping
Both PEX and copper are reliable repiping options when installed correctly. PEX offers flexibility and cost efficiency, while copper provides rigidity and long term material value. The best option depends on your plumbing layout, budget, and long term goals. Our specialists explain both options clearly so you can make an informed decision.
PEX Repiping for Multifamily Properties
PEX repiping is well suited for apartments, condominiums, and multi unit buildings due to its efficiency and reduced disruption. Our team plans each multifamily PEX repipe to minimize downtime, coordinate unit access, and restore all units to original condition after installation.
PEX Repiping Cost Factors
PEX repipe cost depends on several factors including building size, number of fixtures, pipe routing complexity, and accessibility. Rather than providing estimates without context, we evaluate each property and provide clear scope based pricing so you understand exactly what is included.
