What is Repiping? Repiping is the complete replacement of your home's plumbing system. If your home was built before the 1990s, your original copper or galvanized steel pipes may be corroded, failing, or damaged. This leads to low water pressure, rust-colored water, leaks, and costly water damage. Modern repiping uses durable PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) or new copper piping installed throughout your home — replacing old, failing pipes with a system designed to last 50+ years. Tri Express Plumbing handles complete repiping projects for San Diego County homes, managing all permits, inspections, and code compliance so you don't have to worry.
Signs You Need Repiping Rusty or Discolored Water — Brown or orange water from faucets indicates corroded pipes releasing rust into your water supply. Weak Water Pressure — Low flow throughout the house often means pipe corrosion is blocking water movement. Frequent Leaks — Multiple leaks in different areas signal that your entire system is failing and needs replacement. Water Bill Increases — Slow leaks add up. If your bill suddenly jumps, hidden leaks are wasting water. Mold or Mildew — Water damage behind walls or under floors from leaking pipes creates conditions for mold growth. Home Age — Homes built before 1990 typically have galvanized steel pipes that fail after 40-50 years of use.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a complete repiping take?

Most repiping projects take 3-5 days depending on your home's size and complexity. We work during the day and minimize disruption to your family.

What's the difference between PEX and copper piping?

PEX is flexible, affordable, and lasts 50+ years. Copper is more expensive but also durable and preferred by some homeowners. We recommend PEX for most applications and copper for specific areas.

Will repiping damage my walls?

We minimize wall damage by routing pipes through existing spaces whenever possible. If we do need to open walls, we patch and finish them professionally.

Can I stay in my home during repiping?

Yes. We work during business hours and keep disruption minimal. You'll have water available at night and on weekends.

Do you handle permits and inspections?

Yes. We manage all permits, code compliance, and inspections so you don't have to deal with the city.

What if I only need partial repiping?

We can repipe specific areas of your home if only certain lines are failing. We'll assess which areas need replacement and provide a targeted estimate.

How long will new pipes last?

PEX piping lasts 50+ years. Copper lasts even longer — often 70+ years. Both are backed by manufacturer warranties and our workmanship guarantee.
