Should You Repair or Repipe?
While there are some instances where a simple repair works on a pipe, complete repiping jobs are gaining popularity with homeowners. As the piping system in your home settles and ages, tiny leaks can spring up. These tiny leaks can number in the hundreds, so in those kinds of cases, a total repiping is the best option.
While the idea of completely repiping your home can seem daunting, the fact is, newer piping systems are built to last better and anticipate future repairs.
What Type of Pipe Works Best
In the plumbing world, there are two standards in piping: Copper and PEX, both offer great advantages such as not eroding and preventing a metallic taste from entering your water. They are both fairly different for one another, so when considering a repiping job, think first about what kind of pipe would work best for you.
Copper piping is a bit more sturdy than PEX, it will also last longer. The joints and corners will be strong and will not sag, however the upfront cost of installing it is higher.

With PEX, the upfront cost is less. The pipe is flexible, which makes it less susceptible to freezing or bursting in the winter. The pipe itself is more resistant to acidic substances, but the pipes cannot be left exposed because they are damaged by UV light.
