How do I know if my Folsom home needs repiping?

Several signs indicate your home may need repiping. If you have rust-colored or bad-smelling water, low water pressure throughout the house, or visible corrosion on exposed pipes, it’s time for an assessment. Homes built in Folsom between 1995-2007 often have Kitec pipes, which are bright orange for hot water and blue for cold water. These pipes are known to fail spontaneously, especially the hot water lines. If your home hasn’t had pipes replaced in 50+ years and has galvanized steel piping, you’re likely dealing with mineral buildup and deterioration that affects water flow and quality. Temperature issues are another red flag – if your cold water comes out hot in summer or takes 15+ minutes to get warm water in winter, your pipes may be failing. Don’t wait for a catastrophic failure that could flood your home.

What's the difference between PEX and copper repiping?

PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) is a flexible plastic piping that’s become very popular for repiping projects. It’s cost-effective, installs faster than copper, resists corrosion, and can last up to 75 years. PEX handles freezing conditions well and works great with Folsom’s water conditions. Copper piping is the traditional choice that many homeowners prefer for its durability and the fact that it doesn’t affect water taste. It’s more expensive than PEX but has a proven track record and is often preferred by home buyers. Copper is resistant to corrosion and can last for decades with proper installation. The choice often comes down to budget and personal preference. PEX offers excellent value and performance for most Folsom homes, while copper provides the traditional reliability many homeowners want. We’ll help you choose the best option based on your specific needs, budget, and long-term plans for your home.

How much does repiping cost in Folsom?

Repiping costs in Folsom typically range from $5,000 to $30,000 for a one to three-bedroom house, including finish work and paint touch-ups. The final cost depends on your home’s size, the extent of the work needed, and the materials you choose. PEX repiping generally costs less than copper due to lower material costs and faster installation. Homes with Kitec or severely deteriorated galvanized pipes may require more extensive work. Factors that affect pricing include accessibility of pipes, number of fixtures, and whether walls need to be opened for access. We provide transparent, upfront pricing with detailed estimates before any work begins. Many of our customers find that the final cost comes in under our initial estimate. We also offer financing options to help make this important investment in your home more manageable. The cost of repiping is significantly less than dealing with water damage from burst pipes.

Can I stay in my house during the repiping process?

Yes, in most cases you can stay in your home during repiping. We work systematically, completing one section at a time so you maintain access to water and basic facilities throughout most of the project. We coordinate our work to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Typically, we’ll maintain water service to at least one bathroom and the kitchen for as long as possible. When we do need to shut off water to complete connections, we schedule these periods during times that work best for your family. The entire process usually takes 3-7 days depending on your home’s size and complexity. We protect your belongings with plastic sheeting, clean up thoroughly each day, and communicate clearly about what to expect each day. Our goal is to complete your repiping with as little disruption as possible while ensuring quality workmanship.

Why do so many Folsom homes have pipe problems?

Folsom experienced what’s been called a “Pipe Pandemic” around 2019-2020 due to widespread use of problematic piping materials during certain construction periods. Many homes built between 1995-2007 have Kitec pipes, which were marketed as a cheaper alternative to copper but have proven to fail prematurely. Kitec pipes contain brass fittings with high zinc content that undergo dezincification, causing the fittings to weaken and pipes to burst spontaneously. The manufacturer recalled these pipes in 2005 and paid $125 million in class-action settlements due to the high failure rate. Older Folsom homes often have galvanized steel pipes that degrade over time through dezincification, leading to mineral buildup, reduced water pressure, and eventual failure. The combination of these construction patterns means many Folsom homeowners are dealing with aging, problematic plumbing systems that need replacement to prevent water damage and restore proper function.

What happens if my pipes burst before I can get them replaced?

Pipe bursts can cause extensive water damage, flooding, mold growth, and thousands of dollars in repairs. Kitec pipes are particularly notorious for catastrophic failures that can dump hundreds of gallons of water into your home in a short time. If you experience a pipe burst, immediately shut off your main water supply and call us for emergency service. We provide 24/7 emergency response because we know these situations can’t wait. Our team will assess the damage, make emergency repairs to stop the water flow, and help you understand your options for permanent solutions. The best approach is preventive replacement before pipes fail. If you have Kitec pipes, galvanized steel pipes, or other warning signs like low water pressure or discolored water, don’t wait for a catastrophic failure. The cost of proactive repiping is significantly less than dealing with water damage, mold remediation, and emergency repairs after a major pipe failure.
