Homeowners will face plumbing problems at some point. It is unavoidable. In some cases, a simple fix may not be enough, and you may need to get the entire house repiped.
A full-home repipe may seem daunting, but don’t be discouraged. You can rely on a seasoned plumber in Lebanon, OR, from Linn Benton Plumbing to deliver a smooth-sailing project. To help you set your expectations and make the necessary preparations, we share an overview of the repiping process:
PREPARING FOR A REPIPING
Repiping requires only a minimal amount of pre-work. First, we inspect your home’s plumbing system to determine how much pipe is needed and its cost. Then, we will discuss your new piping alternatives. As a final step, our plumbing company will present you with a detailed estimate that lays out the material list, project summary, and permits needed, among others.
DURING REPIPING
During the project, we will turn off the water supply to avoid accidental flooding. Most single level homes can be repiped with minimal cutting into walls and minimal downtime on your plumbing system so that you can get back to normal life. Doing a repipe will prevent along of inconvenient plumbing repairs in the future and give you many years of trouble free plumbing service.
The turnaround time of the project mostly depends on the size of your home and the amount of work we need to do. Usually projects take 1-2 days. Rest assured that we will do everything to keep disruptions to a minimum. We will lay down tarps and wear protective gear to keep the mess at bay and prevent unwanted damage. Once done, we will do a thorough clean up of the affected area so that you can get back to normal life.
AFTER REPIPING
After repiping, we will conduct a final test to ensure everything works as it should and won’t cause an emergency plumbing issue. We will notify you if the walls are still drying and clean up the work site.
You may now relax and take advantage of your brand-new pipes, which should last for several years. There is no better way to keep your home safe and functional than with comprehensive repiping work. Contact us today to schedule an appointment.
