What Is Whole House Repiping?

A plumbing system is a vast and intricate network of pipes which are made of varying materials. Some systems are built to last several decades while others, like PVC or cast iron, can last around and over 100 years. Needless to say, improper usage and accidents can cut the life expectancy of your plumbing system short. Proper care, periodic maintenance, and timely repair will allow you to enjoy the full potential of your pipes. Sooner or later, it will be time to replace your pipes. A whole house repiping is just as it sounds. If you need your pipes completely replaced, then call Mr. Rooter Plumbing to get started. If you are not sure, then continue reading to figure out if it is time for a whole house repiping.

It was a late Saturday night. We had a super stubborn clog in some old galvanized pipes. Mr. Rooter send out Phil. Phil was great! He found the problem pretty quick.

Rose Bernard

Red Bank, NJ

We had a plumbing emergency and found Mr. Rooter while frantically searching for a 24-hour plumber. We feel like we hit a gold mine. Not only did we get a timely response. Everyone at Mr. Rooter was friendly, professional, competent and went above and beyond. Our plumber, Phil, was extremely helpful and gave us tips we could use moving firwars. Not to mention, the cost was extremely reasonable.

Joseph Chis

Hillsborough, NJ

Had sewer water backup in toilet and tub. Received callback as promised and arrived early. The tech determined we needed the main line to be cleared. He quickly located the opening and had us cleared in minutes. Very happy with the service. I was not prepared for the fee but it was an emergency.

Christopher Cox

Little Silver Township

Plumber, Phil, came out on short notice on a Saturday night and fixed our issue quickly, professionally and courteously. I contacted a different, well known plumbing company right before Mr. Rooter. The receptionist was rude and they didn’t call me back to say they couldn’t make it until after Phil left! The Mr. Rooter receptionist was very nice and they called me back quickly. I’m glad they did.

Debbie Dimitrion

I just wanted to say James did a great job at my house. Excellent service, professional and very nice. Thank you so much for helping me with my plumbing problem. Did wonderful job.

Rachel Turunen

Jackson Township

I was very happy that I went with Mr. Rooter’s. The service was very quick and up front. Jessie James was very helpful answering my questions and replacing my hot water heater. He was pleasurable to do business with. If another problem arises in my home, I will be using this company again.

William Holden

Brick Township, NJ

A thorough, professional, pleasant experience. I had a back-up in the 50 year-old pipes of my new home. I called Mr. Rooter to have them locate the blockage, snake the line, and then use their video snake to get a visual of the integrity of the pipes. I’m glad that I called and will use them again for future needs.

LarJ MarJ

Oakhurst, NJ

You get what you pay for. Edwin Robles of Central NJ educated me as a 1st time homebuyer on why and what he was repairing, prevention, PROMPT,(on a sunday at that!) clean, knowledgeable, super professional but DOWN TO EARTH and at a REASONABLE PRICE! Sewer pipes unclogged and main water line fixed. I was no longer crying once job was thoroughly executed. After all $#@* $tinks but somebody has to do it and I HIGHLY recommend him and this company for a job well done. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!

Margie Rafferty-Criscione

Ocean Township

Absolutely lovely office staff! I always knew when the repair person was coming. Lorenzo our repair guy was awesome, I really don't think there is anything he can't do. He looks young, but don't let that fool you! So happy all the repairs are behind us. We really just did a one-stop shopping and decided to have everything we've put off fixed because it was such a tremendous experience!

What Is Whole House Repiping?

Some Signs That You Need A Whole House Repiping

Repiping your whole house is going to be quite an expense, so it is normal for you to wonder whether it is necessary or not. Sometimes a quick repair can have your system back in working order. Other times, the cumulative cost of constant repairs will mean a full replacement is more cost-effective. If you spot any of the following signs, then we recommend hiring a certified plumber from Mr. Rooter Plumber to schedule your flexible appointment as soon as possible:

  • Aged Pipes: Mode pipes are built to last much longer than ones built 50 years ago. If your building is around 50 years old and the pipes have not been fully replaced, then you would be wise to have your house repiped.
  • Leaking Pipes: Pipes that are exposed to the elements, pressure, and even tree roots can become damaged prematurely, but if mundane pipes are starting to leak then there is not much keeping the remaining ones from leaking.
  • Visible Corrosion: Take a stroll around your house to inspect visible pipes. Stains, discoloration, flaking, and rust are signs of corrosion. Replace corroded pipes as soon as possible.
  • Low Water Pressure: Clogs can be caused by a variety of reasons including sediment buildup. If you are tuing the faucet to max and water is trickling, then it might be time for a whole house repiping.

Our Experts Are Ready to Walk You Through Your Options

The certified plumbers at Mr. Rooter Plumbing are trained and equipped to spot issues in addition to fixing them. We look out for your best interest and are happy to start with a full inspection of your plumbing system. Our certified plumbers can evaluate the quality of your pipes and walk you through your options. On the one hand, you shouldn’t replace a whole system if only some parts are damaged.
