Repiping vs Repairing: Making the Right Choice
Sometimes you can simply repair a leaky plumbing pipe without having to replace it. And usually, this can be a more cost-effective solution in the short term. Over time, however, if the pipe continues to leak, then a repipe might be your only option. Here are some reasons to repair plumbing pipes vs. replacing them
Repair Plumbing Pipes When
If you find yourself in any of these situations, it might be better to repair your pipe instead of replacing it:
- Your plumbing pipes are relatively new
- The water leak is very small
- The leak is at a pipe joint
- You do not have the budget to replace the pipe
Replace Plumbing Pipes When
If you find yourself in any of these situations, it might be better to replace your pipe instead of repairing it:
- The same pipe keeps leaking
- Your pipe is cracked or corroded
- Your plumbing system is very old
- You are remodeling your home

Galvanized Pipe Replacement and Polybutylene Pipe Replacement
Galvanized pipes and Polybutylene pipes were common plumbing choices in the past when building new homes, but they have since fallen out of favor due to their pipe issues. Here are the reasons why you should repipe galvanized pipes or repipe polybutylene pipes right away.
Galvanized Pipes
Galvanized steel pipes are made of steel and have been coated with a layer of zinc in an attempt to prevent corrosion. Over time, there are several issues with galvanized steel pipes including:
- Galvanized Pipe Corrosion: The zinc layer in galvanized pipes is designed to prevent rust, but it is known to eventually wear off and expose the steel pipe to water. Once this happens, pipe corrosion comes next. Eventually all of your galvanized steel pipes will corrode and create plumbing problems.
- Bad Water Quality: As galvanized pipes corrode, rust and other harmful elements from the plumbing pipe enter your water supply causing bad water quality. If you have galvanized pipes in your home and notice the color of your water changing, this is probably what is occurring.
- Galvanized Pipes Have A Short Lifespan: Galvanized pipes can usually last about 40 years. After that, they need to be replaced. If you have these pipes in your home for longer, you should consider a whole-house pipe replacement today.
Polybutylene Pipes
Polybutylene pipes were popular from the 1970s to the 1990s due to their low cost and simple installation. But, these pipes are no longer used in plumbing systems for many reasons. Here is why:
- Polybutylene Breaks Down Over Time: Chlorine in your water supply is known to breakdown these pipes over time and cause them to leak. In fact, polybutylene water lines are known for their pinhole leaks that will eventually occur.
- Short Lifespan of Poly-B: Polybutylene pipes typically last 10-15 years and then need to be replaced. If you’ve had poly-b pipes for longer than 15 years, then you need to consider replacing them.
- Polybutylene Insurance Issues: Many insurance companies will not offer insurance to cover homes with polybutylene plumbing pipes. This is due to their high risk of pipe failure and potential water damage that can occur.
Given these issues, if your home has galvanized or polybutylene pipes, you should consider having them replaced with a more modern, durable material like copper or PEX. If you are looking for an expert repiping specialist to help you weigh your options, you’ve come to the right place. Contact us today for a whole-house repiping consultation!
How Much Does A Repiping Project Cost?
The cost of a repiping project depends on the specific scope of the repipe. If you are getting a whole-house repipe done, then that is going to cost more than replacing a single leaking water line. The benefits of a repiping project almost always outweigh the costs and allow you to get a return on your investment. Avoiding plumbing catastrophes, low water pressure, property damage, and increased water bills are just a few benefits of repiping a bad or failing plumbing pipe. Copper repiping is always more expensive than PEX repiping due to the cost of the materials. Depending on the size of the home, an average copper whole-house repipe could be north of $20,000.

Understanding Repiping Costs
Not all repiping costs are created equal. In fact, there are many different factors that should go into pricing a pipe project. At ASAP Repipe Pros, we take the following into account when providing a repipe quote to our customers:
- Size Of House: The size of your home matters, especially when we are doing a whole-house pipe replacement project. The larger the home, typically the more the cost of the entire project. Also, homes with more bathrooms and plumbing fixtures can cost more to repipe.
- Plumbing Pipe Materials: Another key factor in the price of a repipe is the type of pipe materials being used. Copper pipes are more expensive than PEX, and will drive up the cost of the total project. Many of our customers elect for PEX because they are just as durable as copper and much less expensive.
- Job Complexity: Finally, the complexity of the job will determine the total labor cost. If you have a very tricky slab leak, or getting to your plumbing pipes is very challenging, this can drive up the total time spent on the job and the total labor cost of repiping.
