Repiping is a significant project, so it's worth knowing the signs that point toward it rather than another round of spot repairs.
The Five Signs
Rusty or discolored water after periods of no use, steadily declining pressure over years rather than months, pinhole leaks appearing in different locations, visible corrosion on any exposed pipe, and a home built before the 1970s that has never been repiped.
Quick Self-Check
- Discolored water when first turning on a tap after hours unused
- More than one pinhole leak in the past two years
- Visible green or white corrosion on exposed copper or galvanized pipe
- Water pressure that's noticeably weaker than it used to be

Frequently Asked Questions
Is repiping always whole-house?
Not necessarily. We assess which runs are original and failing versus already updated, and can often repipe selectively.
How disruptive is a repipe project?
Most homes complete in two to four days with water restored to at least part of the house each night.
