Ways to Tell Your Home May Need Partial or Full Repiping

Your home’s plumbing system may be out of sight, but that doesn’t mean it should be out of mind. Over time, pipes corrode, weaken, and become less reliable, especially if your home is over 40 years old or still uses outdated materials like galvanized steel or polybutylene. At Althoff Home Services, we help homeowners recognize the signs that it may be time for partial or full repiping. Common red flags include low water pressure, discolored water, frequent leaks, and noisy or banging pipes.

You may also notice inconsistent water temperatures or a musty smell near plumbing fixtures. If you’ve dealt with multiple pipe repairs over the years, repiping may offer a more cost-effective and permanent solution. Our licensed plumbers will inspect your system and explain whether a targeted pipe replacement or whole-home repiping is the best choice for your situation.

Modern Pipe Material Used for Repiping

At Althoff Home Services, we use only the highest-quality, modern piping materials to ensure your home’s new plumbing system is safe, efficient, and built to last. Today’s most popular repiping options include PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) and copper piping, each with its own benefits. PEX is highly flexible, resistant to scale and chlorine, and won’t corrode over time. It’s a cost-effective solution that works well in both new construction and repiping projects.

Copper is durable, long-lasting, and ideal for high-temperature or high-pressure applications. It’s also naturally resistant to bacteria. Depending on your home’s layout, needs, and budget, we’ll recommend the best material for your repiping project. Our team will walk you through every step of the process, from material selection and layout planning to final installation, so you always know what to expect. We also provide quotes before performing service, ensuring complete transparency.
