# Repiping — Hummel Plumbing

Once a supply system starts failing in multiple places, patching each leak is paying repeatedly for the same problem. Homes here built before the mid 1970s often have galvanized pipe that has corroded nearly shut, and copper from the seventies and eighties eventually develops pinhole leaks that hard water accelerates.

A repipe replaces the supply lines throughout the house in copper or PEX, permitted and inspected, with walls patched as part of the job. Most single family homes take days, not weeks, and the cheapest repipe you will ever get is the one done while a remodel already has the walls open.

## FAQ
### How do I know it is time to repipe?
Repetition is the tell. A third leak in eighteen months in different places is a system at the end of its life. Gradually declining pressure in an older home points the same way.

### Copper or PEX?
Both are code compliant and both outlast what they replace. PEX installs faster and costs less; some owners still prefer copper. The quality of the installation matters more than the material.
