Repiping

Repiping in San Francisco

From diagnostics and emergency repairs to cleaning, maintenance and the installation of new water systems, our highly skilled professionals do it all! While some plumbing issues can be fixed by addressing a single section of your home’s plumbing system, you may be facing more serious problems that can require the replacement of all the pipes in your home. This procedure is known as repiping. Arch Plumbing’s precision repiping in San Francisco, CA will leave your house looking the same as before – only with superior piping hidden in the walls and floors of your home.

When is repiping necessary?

Here are three of the most common reasons why customers seek out Arch Plumbing for their repiping needs.

1. Your home is 50 years old, or even older: If you reside in an older home that has never had its pipes replaced, you likely have galvanized pipes in place. The most common type of pipe that was laid in this era, aged galvanized pipes are known to corrode significantly over time. Some can even burst as they get older, and cause structural damage to your home.
2. You’re experiencing multiple leaks: An isolated leak is usually nothing to worry about and can be fixed quickly. However, if you are dealing with pipe leakage ever so often, there might be a deeper issue with your plumbing system. Getting your plumbing issues sorted with repiping can help you save both time and money in the long run, rather than having to call a plumber in every single time your system springs a leak. This also protects your home from developing mold, rot, or water damage.
3. The water coming out of your tap is unclean, or there is low water pressure: Reddish brown water is indicative of rust build-up and pipe deterioration. Hard water that leaves a significant grimy residue can also mean there is a great deal of mineral build-up in your pipes. Either of these can in turn lead to lower water pressure coming out of your shower head and other taps. Rather than live with low water quality and pressure, replacing your pipes can ensure that you get a steady flow of clean water for you and your family.

If you’re experiencing any of these problems, call our trusted plumbers to inspect your pipes and provide you with an accurate diagnosis of your home’s plumbing system. In some cases, the issues may have spread to your water heater, or to different faucets around the house, and these can be replaced during the repiping process as well.

What does repiping involve?

Your peace of mind matters to us, so once our licensed professionals complete an in- depth diagnostic, we will let you know exactly how much needs to be done, and how long the process will take so you are fully prepared for it. During the repiping process, your house may be left without water for a few days. Repiping your home will also involve removing sections of your walls so we are able to remove the old pipes and replace them with new ones. In order to minimize any damage to your home, this will be completed in sections.

Once the new pipes are laid and any other affected parts have been replaced, we will undertake a thorough test of the new system, to ensure there are no leaks and that everything is working as it should. When we are satisfied with this, our team will then restore any affected parts of drywall, so they look good as new.

What will repiping cost in San Francisco?

The cost of repiping a home depends on a number of factors, including the size of the system that needs to be replaced, the structure of your home, and the number of fixtures that may also need to be upgraded. When you engage repiping experts, the costs of repiping should also include wall repair and painting once your pipes are back in top form, so you won’t have to hire another set of contractors.

Our repiping experts understand the best ways to ensure the removal and replacement of your old pipes will have a minimal impact on the rest of your home. We will also do our utmost to ensure your belongings are protected from water damage and debris during the repiping process. Rather than ripping down large chunks of wall or floor, our team will approach the process with surgical precision, leaving your home (and your sanity) intact.
