When your repiping is done right, you get consistent water pressure throughout your home. No more rusty water staining your clothes or dishes. No more wondering if that strange taste is coming from corroded pipes.
Your family deserves clean, safe water flowing from every faucet. With modern materials like PEX or copper, you’re looking at decades of reliable service. The peace of mind alone is worth it – no more emergency calls about burst pipes flooding your basement.
Think about it: one comprehensive repiping project now prevents years of patch jobs, water damage, and the headaches that come with aging plumbing systems.
We’ve been solving plumbing problems in Tahoma and the West Shore Lake Tahoe area since 2009. What started as one person’s vision to provide honest, reliable plumbing service has grown into the region’s go-to team for complex projects like whole-house repiping.
We maintain a 4.7-star Google rating based on 93 reviews because we do what we say we’ll do. Customers consistently mention that final costs came in lower than the original estimate – a rarity in this industry.
As a locally-owned business with deep roots in the Tahoma community, we understand the unique challenges of Lake Tahoe area homes, from seasonal property maintenance to the specific plumbing issues that come with mountain living.
First, we’ll inspect your current plumbing system using advanced sewer cameras to see exactly what’s happening inside your pipes. No guesswork, no surprises. You’ll get a clear explanation of what needs to be done and why.
Next comes the planning phase. We’ll map out the most efficient route for new pipes, minimizing disruption to your daily routine. Most residential repiping projects can be completed in 1-2 days, depending on your home’s size and complexity.
During installation, we use quality materials – either PEX or copper – based on your home’s specific needs and your budget. We’ll protect your floors, clean up after ourselves, and test everything thoroughly before considering the job complete. You’ll know your new plumbing system is ready to serve your family for decades.

A complete repiping service covers your home’s entire water supply system – from the main line connection to every faucet, toilet, and appliance. This includes hot and cold water lines, shut-off valves, and proper connections to your water heater.
In Tahoma’s mountain climate, proper insulation and freeze protection are essential. We ensure your new pipes are positioned and protected to handle temperature fluctuations that come with Lake Tahoe area living. We also address any code compliance issues found during the process.
Our service includes thorough cleanup, debris removal, and testing of water pressure and flow throughout your home. You’ll receive documentation of the work completed, which can be valuable for insurance purposes and future home sales. Most importantly, you get the peace of mind that comes with knowing your home’s plumbing infrastructure is solid for years to come.
Most residential repiping projects in Tahoma take 1-2 days to complete, depending on your home’s size and the complexity of the existing plumbing layout. Single-story homes typically finish faster than multi-story properties.
The timeline also depends on whether you’re doing a partial repipe (just problem areas) or a complete whole-house system replacement. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe during the initial inspection so you can plan accordingly.
We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine, but we won’t rush the job. Quality installation takes time, and cutting corners on a repiping project creates problems down the road that cost much more to fix.
PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) is flexible, freeze-resistant, and typically costs less to install. It’s excellent for Tahoma’s climate because it can expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking. PEX also resists corrosion and mineral buildup better than metal pipes.
Copper is the traditional choice – durable, long-lasting, and preferred by some homeowners for its proven track record. It handles high temperatures well and doesn’t affect water taste. However, copper costs more upfront and can be susceptible to certain types of corrosion depending on your water chemistry.
The best choice depends on your budget, your home’s specific needs, and your long-term plans. We’ll test your water and assess your situation to recommend the material that makes the most sense for your Tahoma home.
Several warning signs indicate it’s time for repiping: consistently low water pressure, discolored or rusty water, frequent pipe leaks, or pipes that are over 20 years old. If you’re dealing with multiple plumbing issues throughout your home, repiping often makes more financial sense than endless repairs.
In Tahoma’s mountain environment, homes built in the 1980s and 1990s may have polybutylene pipes, which are known to fail unexpectedly. Galvanized steel pipes common in older homes eventually corrode from the inside out, restricting water flow and affecting water quality.
The most reliable way to know is through a professional inspection using sewer cameras. This technology lets you see the actual condition of your pipes, not just guess based on external symptoms. Our inspection will give you a clear picture of what you’re dealing with.
Yes, repiping typically adds value to your home, especially in Tahoma’s competitive real estate market. New plumbing systems are a major selling point for potential buyers who want to avoid inheriting someone else’s plumbing problems.
A complete repipe demonstrates that the home’s infrastructure has been properly maintained and updated. This can justify a higher asking price and often leads to faster sales. Many buyers specifically look for homes with updated plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems.
Beyond market value, repiping protects your investment by preventing water damage that can cost tens of thousands to repair. Insurance companies also view updated plumbing favorably, which can sometimes result in lower premiums. The peace of mind alone makes it worthwhile for most homeowners.
Repiping costs vary based on your home’s size, the materials chosen, and the complexity of the existing plumbing layout. A complete whole-house repipe typically ranges from several thousand to over ten thousand dollars, but this investment prevents much costlier problems down the road.
We provide free, detailed estimates that break down exactly what’s included in the project. We’re known for transparent pricing – many customers report that final costs came in lower than the original estimate, which is unusual in this industry.
The key is getting multiple quotes and comparing what’s actually included in each proposal. The cheapest bid often excludes important elements like permits, cleanup, or quality materials. Our estimates include everything needed to complete the job properly the first time.
Yes, we offer 24/7 emergency service for urgent plumbing situations, including emergency repiping when pipes fail catastrophically. Burst pipes don’t wait for convenient timing, especially during Tahoma’s cold winter months.
Emergency repiping situations often involve stopping active water damage first, then quickly installing temporary solutions while planning the permanent repair. We carry the tools and materials needed to handle most emergency scenarios without delays.
The 24/7 availability is crucial in a mountain community like Tahoma where weather conditions can make plumbing failures more serious. Quick response prevents minor problems from becoming major disasters that affect your home’s structure and your family’s safety.
