Repipes are all we do. 5,000+ Houston homes since 2016 — most finished in a single day.

What makes a repipe specialist different from a general plumber?
A general plumber does a little of everything — clogged drains, water heaters, faucet repairs, and the occasional repipe when one comes along. A repipe specialist does one thing, every day: replace the entire water piping system in a home. That difference shows up everywhere in the job.
Repetition Builds Speed
Because whole-house repipes are all we do, our crews have run the same playbook on 5,000+ Houston homes since 2016. That’s why most repipes finish in one day — a job a general plumber might stretch across a week.Drywall Is Part of the Job
A repipe specialist plans small, strategic access cuts — and patches them after the city inspection passes. Drywall repair is included, not a separate contractor you have to find yourself.Permits Every Time
Repipe companies that do this daily treat the city permit and inspection as standard, not an upsell. Every one of our repipes includes both.One Crew, No Plumbing Subs
We’re family-owned and owner-operated, and we don’t use subcontractors for the plumbing work. The specialists who quote your home are part of the same company that repipes it.Local repipe specialists vs. national repipe chains
Search for repipe companies in Houston and you’ll see national brands mixed in with local ones. Both can hold licenses — the difference is who actually answers your call and who stands behind the work. Here’s how a Houston-owned specialist company compares to the typical national franchise model:
| We Do Repipes (Local) | Typical National Chain | |
|---|---|---|
| Ownership | Houston family-owned, owner-operated | Franchise of a national brand |
| Who answers the phone | Our Houston team — (832) 819-8337 | National call center |
| Who does the plumbing work | Our own crews — no plumbing subcontractors | Often local subcontractors, varies by area |
| Accountability | The owner is in Houston — same company before and after the job | Local sub and national office can point at each other |
| Permit + city inspection | Included on every job | Varies by location |
| Drywall patch after inspection | Included | Varies by location |
| Houston track record | 5,000+ repipes since 2016, BBB A+ | National totals, not local |
Neither model is illegal or automatically bad — but when the pipes are inside your walls, we think you should know exactly which company is doing the work and where they’ll be next year. Read what Houston homeowners say on our reviews page.

What does a repipe company do?
A repipe company replaces the entire water supply piping in a home — every hot and cold line to every fixture — rather than patching individual leaks. A full-service repipe company like ours also pulls the city permit, schedules the inspection, and patches the drywall access cuts afterward, so you’re not coordinating three different contractors.How do I choose a repipe specialist in Houston?
Ask three things. One: is repiping their specialty, or one service on a long menu? Two: is the company local and owner-operated, or a national brand routing your call to a call center? Three: does the quote include the permit, city inspection, and drywall repair in writing? A specialist who repipes homes every day should say yes to all three without hesitation.How much does a repipe company charge?
In Houston, our whole-house repipes start at $4,500, and most homes finish between $4,500 and $11,500 depending on square footage, fixture count, and accessibility. That includes 40% off list price, the permit and inspection, and drywall repair. See the full repipe pricing guide for ranges by home size.Is a repipe specialist better than a general plumber for a repipe?
For a whole-house repipe, usually yes. A crew that repipes homes daily works faster (most of our jobs finish in 1 day), makes smaller drywall cuts because they’ve mapped thousands of similar homes, and handles the permit and inspection as routine. A general plumber can do the job — it just isn’t the job they do every day. Repipes are all we do.What pipe materials do repipe companies install?
Most modern repipes use PEX-A — we install Uponor PEX-A, the white translucent tubing with red and blue print — with a Type-L copper main line standard on every job. An all-copper repipe is available on request. More on our PEX and copper pages.How long does a repipe specialist take to finish a house?
