Most importantly, you know your family’s drinking water is clean and safe. That peace of mind is worth everything.
We understand the specific challenges Herald homeowners face. We’ve seen how Sacramento County’s clay soil shifts during winter storms, putting stress on aging pipes. We know which neighborhoods have the original cast iron lines from the 1960s that are failing now.
We’ve built our reputation on quick response times, transparent pricing, and getting the job done right the first time. Our 4.7-star Google rating comes from customers who needed reliable plumbing work, not empty promises.
When your pipes fail at the worst possible time, we’re the team Herald residents call.
First, we inspect your current system and explain exactly what needs replacement. No surprises, no upselling. Just honest assessment of what’s failing and what can stay.
We map out the new pipe routes to minimize wall cuts and disruption to your daily life. Most repiping jobs are completed in 1-3 days, with water restored each evening so you can shower and cook dinner.
We install modern PEX or copper pipes that will last decades longer than what you have now. After testing everything thoroughly, we patch and paint the access points. You’re left with a completely new plumbing system and walls that look like we were never there.

Your repiping service includes complete replacement of all water supply lines with modern materials. We handle permits, inspections, and coordinate with your schedule to minimize disruption.
Herald’s older homes often have galvanized steel pipes that are well past their 40-50 year lifespan. These corroded lines restrict water flow and can contaminate your water supply. We replace them with either copper pipes (extremely durable, 50-100 year lifespan) or PEX tubing (flexible, corrosion-resistant, faster to install).
Sacramento County’s mature trees and shifting soil create unique challenges for plumbing systems. We account for these local factors when designing your new system, ensuring it can handle the ground movement and root intrusion common in this area.
Repiping costs in Herald typically range from $8,000 to $15,000 for most homes, depending on size, number of bathrooms, and pipe material choice. PEX installations cost less than copper but both offer excellent longevity.
The investment pays for itself through eliminated leak repairs, lower water bills, and increased home value. More importantly, you avoid the catastrophic costs of burst pipe emergencies that often happen at the worst possible times.
We provide detailed estimates with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what you’re paying for before work begins.
Most Herald home repipes are completed in 1-3 days. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your routine, typically shutting water off during work hours and restoring it each evening.
The timeline depends on your home’s size, layout, and accessibility of existing pipes. Single-story homes with accessible crawl spaces move faster than multi-story homes requiring wall access.
We coordinate the work around your schedule and keep you informed of progress throughout the process. You’ll know exactly when to expect water restoration each day.
The most obvious signs are decreased water pressure, rust-colored water, and frequent leak repairs. If your home was built before 1980, your galvanized pipes are likely nearing failure.
Other warning signs include water that tastes metallic, brown stains in sinks and tubs, and clothes that feel stiff after washing. These indicate pipe corrosion that’s affecting your water quality.
Sacramento County’s clay soil and mature trees put extra stress on aging pipes. If you’re experiencing recurring slab leaks or unexplained increases in water bills, your underground lines may be compromised.
Both materials offer excellent performance, but each has advantages. Copper pipes last 50-100 years and handle high temperatures well, making them ideal for hot water lines. They’re also preferred for exposed installations.
PEX tubing costs less to install, resists corrosion and scale buildup, and handles ground movement better than rigid pipes. This makes it particularly suitable for Herald’s shifting soil conditions.
Most of our Herald customers choose PEX for the cost savings and faster installation, but we’ll recommend the best option based on your specific home and budget.
Absolutely. Updated plumbing is one of the most valuable home improvements you can make. Buyers specifically look for homes with modern plumbing systems to avoid inheriting expensive pipe problems.
A complete repipe eliminates the buyer’s concern about hidden plumbing issues and potential water damage. This makes your home more attractive and can support a higher selling price.
Beyond resale value, you’ll immediately benefit from lower water bills, eliminated leak repairs, and the peace of mind that comes with a reliable plumbing system.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections with Sacramento County. This ensures your repiping meets all local codes and regulations.
Herald falls under Sacramento County jurisdiction, which has specific requirements for plumbing work. We’re familiar with these regulations and maintain good relationships with local inspectors.
