Most of the time, homeowners make the decision to remodel because they want to address cosmetic issues. They want a huge new kitchen with the latest fixtures and updated tile. They want a bathroom with a big, garden tub, or they want crown molding throughout the house. Few people think about doing things like upgrading the electric system or the plumbing unless doing so is connected to a sexier upgrade, like a smart home setup or new appliances and fixtures.

House Remodel A Guide to Repiping Your Home

However, the infrastructure of your home is just as important as the way your home looks – more so, actually. If you are getting ready to remodel your kitchen or bathroom, you should think about whether you need to re-pipe all or part of your home. Here are a few things you’ll need to consider to decide:

What is the Condition of Your Pipes?

You might think that your pipes are fine so long as you have running water and there aren’t any leaks. But your pipes could be slowly eroding without you knowing it. The only way to know the condition of your pipes for sure is to call in an experienced plumber to inspect your system.
Some signs that you might need to re-pipe your home include low or inconsistent water pressure, high water bills, smelly water, or discolored water. If your system is older, it’s reasonable to assume that it may need to soon be replaced. Again, check with a plumber near Aliso Viejo to know for sure.

How Much of the Plumbing Needs to be Replaced?

Once you have a CA plumber inspect your system, you might find that you need to have some work done. Only a few pipes or portions thereof may need to be replaced, or your whole plumbing system may need to be replaced. There’s no need to re-pipe your whole home if only portions of your system need updates or repairs. You can save yourself a lot of money by investing in simple re-piping repairs instead of replacing your entire plumbing system. Get the answers before you make your decision.

What Type of Pipes Should You Choose?

A lot of older pipes are made of metal. Many metal materials were preferred for plumbing pipes because they were durable. The idea was that they would stand up to a lot of damage and would last for many years, helping homeowners to save money and to avoid outages from damage. However, there are many drawbacks to metals. For example, copper can corrode, and it is difficult to install because it has to be soldered.

Fortunately, you have many more options for re-piping. If you have to re-pipe your whole home, you can choose from traditional options like copper or from newer options like PEX or PVC. PEX is an especially cost-effective choice because it is just as durable and damage-resistant as metal pipes, but it is also flexible and easier to install. PEX does not require elbows or similar connectors to get around corners, and it can be moved through tiny spaces, making it easier to get the plumbing where you need it without having to make major changes to the structure of the house.

When you remodel your home, you should look at the big picture and not just your immediate goals to change the look or functionality of a space. You should think about protecting your long-term investment in your home, as well as about saving money. You can do that by re-piping your home when it is time. You’ll ensure that you have a healthy system that won’t break down, costing you a lot in repairs and replacement. You’ll also ensure that all your new fixtures and appliances for your kitchen and bathroom are well-supplied so that they work to their full potential.
