What We Do

Repiping & Pipe Repair across SWFL.

If your home is getting recurring slab leaks, has pinhole leaks in copper, or was built with polybutylene piping — repiping is the permanent solution. Sage runs new PEX or copper supply lines through walls, attics, or re-routed paths to avoid slab work. Most full-home repipes take 2-4 days, and we coordinate drywall patches as part of the project.

Signs You Need This

When to call us.

Multiple slab leaks within a few years

Indicates systemic corrosion. Repiping prevents future leaks instead of repairing one at a time.

Polybutylene (grey plastic) piping

Notorious failure pattern. If your home was built late-80s to mid-90s and has grey poly, repipe before it fails.

Pinhole leaks in copper

Often water chemistry or electrolysis. Indicates more leaks coming. Repipe before damage compounds.

Discolored or rust-tinted water

Galvanized pipes corroding from the inside. Eventually fails — repipe is the fix.

Low water pressure throughout the home

Mineral buildup inside old pipes restricting flow. New piping restores full pressure.

Repeated supply leaks in different locations

Pattern of failures. Time to replace the system rather than patch.

Common Questions

The short answers.

PEX or copper?

PEX is faster to install, flexes (better for slabs), and has fewer joint failure points. Copper is the traditional standard. Both are excellent — we discuss based on your home and budget. Most modern repipes use PEX.

How long does a repipe take?

Most single-family homes: 2-4 days for the plumbing work. Add 1-3 more days for drywall patching.

How much does a whole-home repipe cost?

Typical SWFL single-family home: $5,000-$12,000 depending on size, complexity, and material choice. Includes drywall openings; drywall finish/paint is usually additional.

Will my water be off the whole time?

No — we work in sections and restore water service to most of the home at end of each work day. Worst case is a few hours without water during certain phases.

Can I stay in the home during repipe?

Yes — most clients stay home. Minor disruption around work areas; we work clean and contain dust.

Does insurance cover repipe?

Generally no — insurance covers sudden failures and resulting damage, not proactive replacement of aging piping. Some policies cover repipe after a covered loss.
