Homes built before the 1980s often have galvanized pipes that corrode over time. Homes built before 1986 may have lead pipes or lead solder. Lead exposure is a serious health risk, especially for children. If your home has lead or galvanized pipes, replacement is recommended.

We inspect your plumbing to identify lead or galvanized pipes. We discuss replacement options (copper or PEX) and provide a quote. We replace the pipes with modern material, test water quality, and ensure all connections are secure.

Whole-home pipe replacement typically takes 2–5 days depending on the home's size and pipe accessibility.

Whole-home water pipe replacement ranges from $3,000–$8,000+ depending on the home's size and complexity. We provide detailed estimates after inspection.

Is lead pipe replacement expensive? Yes, but the health benefits justify the investment. We offer flexible payment options.

What's better: copper or PEX pipes? Both are safe and reliable. Copper lasts longer; PEX is more flexible and easier to install. We'll recommend based on your situation.
