When leaks keep returning
If you have another slab leak, especially within a couple of months of the last one, we'll talk with you about a repipe. Back-to-back leaks mean there's a good chance you have multiple leaks or will keep having them.
Start with an estimate
If you've had one, there's a good chance you might have multiple leaks or keep having slab leaks. So usually at that point, we'll give you a free estimate for a repipe, so you at least have that in mind.
A repipe is not automatic
Repipes aren't always necessary. Whenever you start having multiple leaks, that's when we start looking at it.
Whole Home Repiping
Replacing failing galvanized, polybutylene or corroded copper pipe throughout the house. Planned room by room to keep walls open as little as possible, finished with a pressure test before we close up.
How a repipe works
- About 90% of our repipes use Uponor PEX for its warranty and longevity. Copper is used where code requires it, such as exposed commercial piping.
- A typical home takes two to three days, and your family can stay home. Water stays on except during tie-ins.
- We don't do the drywall patching ourselves, but we can recommend a trusted drywall contractor to finish the walls after the repipe.
- Around Tulsa we mostly see copper from the '70s and '80s, galvanized in very old homes, and CPVC from remodels, which grows brittle with age. We don't recommend CPVC.
