The process for repiping typically involves several essential steps. First, a thorough inspection by a qualified Bay Area plumber is conducted to identify any existing plumbing issues. Following the inspection, a detailed plan is developed, outlining the scope of work as well as recommended materials, such as copper pipe plumbing or flexible pipes. Preparation comes next, where necessary permits are obtained, and the affected areas are readied for work, potentially involving some demolition. Once the old plumbing is removed, whether it involves outdated materials or damaged sections, new pipes will be installed, often utilizing flexible PEX tubing due to its ease of installation. The repiping process concludes with a thorough testing of the new system to ensure there are no leaks or issues, followed by cleanup and restoration of any affected areas.
