Frequently Asked Questions

Which Pipes Need Replacing?

Most San Diego homes we repipe have one of four pipe types that wear out from the inside. If you recognize your pipes below, a free inspection will tell you how much life they have left.

Polybutylene (PB)

• How to spot it: flexible gray plastic pipe (sometimes blue or black), often stamped “PB2110.” Common in homes built between about 1978 and 1995.
• Why it fails: chlorine in tap water breaks down the pipe and its plastic fittings from the inside. Polybutylene can burst with no warning.
• What we recommend: a full repipe. Replacing one section doesn’t fix the rest of the system, and some insurance companies limit coverage or charge more for homes with polybutylene.

CPVC

• How to spot it: rigid cream or light-yellow plastic pipe.
• Why it fails: CPVC becomes brittle with age and heat, especially on hot-water lines and in hot attics. It tends to crack at fittings or after a bump or pressure spike.
• What we recommend: if cracks keep coming back, replacing the system usually costs less than chasing leaks one at a time.

Galvanized Steel

• How to spot it: dull gray metal pipe with threaded joints, typical in homes built before the 1960s.
• Why it fails: it rusts from the inside, and the buildup narrows the pipe.
• Warning signs: low water pressure, brown or rusty water, leaks at threaded joints.
• What we recommend: a full repipe — the corrosion runs through the whole system.

Thin-Wall Copper (Type M)

• How to spot it: thin copper lines, common in homes from the 1970s through the 1990s.
• Why it fails: aggressive water chemistry slowly eats tiny holes through the pipe wall.
• Warning signs: pinhole leaks — small drips, damp spots on drywall or ceilings, a hissing sound in the walls, or an unexplained jump in your water bill. One pinhole leak is often followed by more.
• What we recommend: if you’ve had two or more pinhole leaks, it’s time to talk about a repipe.

Signs It’s Time to Repipe

• Leaks keep coming back in different places
• Low water pressure throughout the house
• Brown, rusty or cloudy water
• Your home has polybutylene, galvanized or thin-wall copper pipes
• You’re planning a kitchen or bathroom remodel and want to replace old lines while the walls are open

How Re-Store Handles Your Repipe

• Free consultation and free estimate. We inspect your plumbing, identify your pipe type and give you a clear written estimate.
• Licensed plumbing and general contractor in one company (CSLB #1101334, B & C-36). We pull the required permits, and if you’d like, our own crew can patch and finish the drywall afterward — no need to hire a second contractor.
• Already have a leak? Our 24/7 water damage team can dry out your home and work directly with your insurance company.

Does homeowners insurance cover a repipe?

Usually not — insurers treat aging pipes as maintenance. But sudden water damage from a burst pipe is often covered. If a pipe has already failed, call us first: we document the damage and work with your insurance.
