Repiping Services in Lake Zurich, IL

Whole-House and Partial Repiping for Aging or Leaking Plumbing

If your home has galvanized steel, polybutylene, or aging copper supply lines, you are likely already living with the symptoms: rusty or discolored water, low pressure that gets worse over time, pinhole leaks that keep coming back, and repairs that feel like a losing battle. Repiping replaces the failing piping with new PEX or copper so the problem is solved once instead of patched every few months.

Urban Plumbing repipes homes and small commercial buildings across Lake Zurich and the Northwest Suburbs. We replace supply lines, drain and waste stacks, and the main water service, and we plan the work to keep your water off for as little time as possible.

We are a family-operated, licensed and insured plumbing company headquartered at 527 Telser Road in Lake Zurich. Our technicians are background-checked and drug-tested, and the same crew that starts your repipe finishes it.

How a Repipe Works

1. Inspection and Plan

We inspect the existing piping, note the material and condition, and map every fixture. You get a clear plan of what is being replaced, where access openings are needed, and how long the water will be off.

2. Protection and Access

Floors and furniture are covered and access openings are kept as small and as few as possible. Where finished walls must be opened, we tell you in advance.

3. New Piping Installed

New PEX or copper supply lines are run and connected fixture by fixture. Drain and vent piping is replaced where it is part of the scope. Shutoff valves are replaced at every fixture so future repairs are simple.

4. Pressure Test and Walkthrough

The new system is pressure-tested, every fixture is checked for flow and leaks, and we walk you through the new shutoffs before we leave.

Is It Time to Repipe?

Repeated pinhole leaks, brown water after the tap has been off, pressure that drops when two fixtures run, and visible corrosion on exposed pipe are the usual signs. If you are not sure, our leak detection service can tell you whether you have one bad section or a system-wide problem.
