Why You Might Need Piping or Repiping
There are many reasons why you may need to have your pipes replaced.
- If you are having frequent plumbing problems, it may be that your pipes are old and cannot be repaired.
- If your home is more than 30 years old, you may need to have all of your pipes replaced because they are made of materials that are not compatible with newer fixtures and appliances.
Another reason why you may need to have your pipes replaced is because you are adding a new fixture or appliance that requires a different type of piping.
- For example, if you are adding a new sink faucet to a water line that is connected to a kitchen sink, you may need to have that water line replaced with a new one that is compatible with the new faucet.
Types of Piping Materials
There are many types of materials used to make different types of piping. The type of material used depends on the location of the piping, the amount of pressure in the water line, and the amount of weight that the water line is expected to carry.
- For example, a water line that is connected to a washing machine may need to be made of a stronger material than a water line that runs from a faucet to a sink.
Common materials used to make water pipes include:
- Copper
- Galvanized steel
- PVC
The type of material used to make a water pipe depends on the needs of the particular water pipe.
- For example, a water pipe that carries water to a washing machine may need to be made of a stronger material because of the increased pressure and weight.
When You Should Consider Repiping
You may need to have your plumbing lines repiped if you are adding a new fixture or appliance that requires a different type of plumbing line.
- For example, if you are adding a new water heater and it requires a copper water line, you may need to have all of your water pipes repiped with copper. If you are adding a new sink faucet that requires a PVC water line, you may need to repipe all of your water pipes with PVC.
You may also need to repipe your plumbing if you are remodeling your home and want to change the overall look of your plumbing system.
- For example, if you are painting the walls of your kitchen and want to change the color of your kitchen sink faucet and water lines, you may need to have your water lines repiped to match the new faucet.

“Marco was absolutely wonderful, explaining how roots had invaded our sewer pipe in the front yard, cleaning it out quickly, showing us the video scope of exactly where the roots were located. He suggested future treatments to keep the root invasion down.”William F.
I cannot imagine better service
"Our toilets and shower drains suddenly stopped draining. We call Handy Plumbing Man at about 11:00 AM and were told they could be there between 1 - 3:00 PM. I received a text from them that they would arrive early and in fact they were there at 12:15 PM, a good 45 minutes before the estimated arrival time. Marco was absolutely wonderful, explaining how roots had invaded our sewer pipe in the front yard, cleaning it out quickly, showing us the video scope of exactly where the roots were located. He suggested future treatments to keep the root invasion down. He was very informative, kind, and efficient. I cannot imagine better service."- William F. -
“This evening, I came home to a terrible sewage clog that backed up into my tubs and toilets. I called Handy Plumbing Man and spoke to Marco. He said he would be there in 1-2 hours and he arrived within that time. He was honest, kind and explained everything to me. He fixed our problem and now I will use him as my yearly preventative plumbing service. His prices are very fair for what he does. He and his co-worker, Oscar are my favorite people right now!! They saved the day!”Gina Morra S.

“Oscar came round to do my seismic shut off valve. Very nice guy, great communication, super efficient and I am very happy, especially as my home insurer will now agree to cover the house for another year, as they made this work a condition of cover. Plus if there is a shaker, it's one less thing to worry about. Putting my old gas mains wrench for manual shut-off on eBay!”Louisa G.

“Marco is the best! He saved me hundreds of dollars by just giving me solid advice as if he were the homeowner. Instead of defaulting to making money for his business, he told me what he would do. His expert advice and referral helped me solve the problem within 30 mins. I will definitely call him next time I have an issue. Highly recommend!”Joshua T.
