Old Pipe Replacement El Dorado County, CA

Your Old Pipes Are Working Against You

If your El Dorado County, CA home was built before 1980, there’s a good chance you have galvanized pipes slowly deteriorating from the inside out. These pipes were standard for decades, but they have a 40-50 year lifespan that most have already exceeded.

The zinc coating that once protected them wears away, leaving steel exposed to rust and corrosion. That’s why your water pressure drops and your water looks discolored. The pipes are literally clogging themselves with rust and mineral buildup.

Some insurance companies won’t even cover water damage from failed galvanized pipes because the failure is predictable. Don’t wait for a kitchen flood to force your hand.

PEX Copper Kitchen Repiping

Modern Materials That Actually Work

Murray Plumbing installs either PEX or copper pipes depending on your specific needs and budget. PEX is flexible, freeze-resistant, and costs about one-third the price of copper while lasting 30-50 years. It’s also easier to install with less wall cutting.

Copper pipes are the premium choice, lasting 50-70 years with excellent durability and heat resistance. Both materials eliminate the corrosion problems that plague galvanized pipes.

Either choice gives you individual shutoff valves for your kitchen, so repairs never affect your whole house. You get better water quality, consistent pressure, and the confidence that comes with modern plumbing that actually works.

Kitchen Repipes FAQs

Common questions about our Kitchen Repipes services

How much does a kitchen repipe cost in Placerville?

Kitchen repipe costs typically range from $2,000 to $6,000 depending on the complexity of your plumbing layout and material choice. PEX is more affordable at about $0.40-$0.50 per linear foot, while copper costs more but lasts longer. We provide upfront pricing after assessing your specific situation, so you know exactly what to expect before we start work. Most homeowners find that a kitchen repipe pays for itself through improved water quality, better pressure, and prevention of costly water damage from old pipe failures.

Should I choose PEX or copper for my kitchen repipe?

Both materials have advantages. PEX is more affordable, easier to install, and highly flexible, making it perfect for tight spaces and complex layouts. It’s freeze-resistant and lasts 30-50 years. Copper is more durable with a 50-70 year lifespan, excellent heat resistance, and higher resale value appeal. For most kitchen repipes, PEX offers the best value, but if budget isn’t a concern and you want maximum longevity, copper is the premium choice. We’ll assess your specific needs, water conditions, and budget to recommend the best option for your situation.

How long does a kitchen repipe take to complete?

Most kitchen repipes take 1-2 days to complete, depending on the complexity of your plumbing layout and access to pipes. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine. During the work, you’ll have limited water access in the kitchen, but we ensure at least one bathroom remains functional. We protect your floors and surfaces, work cleanly, and test everything thoroughly before considering the job complete. The goal is to get your kitchen back to full functionality as quickly as possible while ensuring quality workmanship.

What are the signs I need a kitchen repipe?

Common signs include low water pressure at kitchen faucets, rust-colored or discolored water, metallic taste in drinking water, and visible corrosion on exposed pipes. If your home was built before 1980 and still has original galvanized pipes, replacement is likely overdue since these pipes typically last 40-50 years. Brown stains around faucets, frequent kitchen plumbing repairs, and uneven water pressure throughout the house are also indicators. Don’t wait for a pipe failure – these problems typically worsen over time and can lead to expensive water damage if not addressed proactively.

Will a kitchen repipe increase my home's value?

While a kitchen repipe doesn’t add value like a kitchen remodel might, it prevents your home from losing value due to outdated plumbing. Modern plumbing is expected by buyers, and old galvanized pipes can be a red flag during inspections. A repipe eliminates potential buyer concerns about water quality, pressure issues, and future plumbing failures. It’s essentially protecting your investment rather than adding value, but it ensures your home remains marketable and passes inspections without plumbing-related price reductions or deal-breakers.

Do you offer financing for kitchen repipe projects?

Yes, we understand that a kitchen repipe is often an unexpected expense. We work with homeowners to find financing solutions that fit their budget and situation. Many of our customers find that the monthly payment for financing is less than what they were spending on repeated plumbing repairs and water damage from old pipes. We’ll discuss financing options during your consultation and help you find an approach that makes sense for your specific circumstances. The important thing is getting your kitchen plumbing fixed before small problems become major headaches.
