Whole-house repipe without living in a construction zone.
Recurring pinholes, rusty water, and a house full of original galvanized or polybutylene are not a series of small repairs — they are a system that is done. We re-pipe in copper or PEX, work around finished spaces, and walk you through the house before we leave so you know every line that changed.

What whole-house repipe actually looks like in Boise.
Thirty-five years under Treasure Valley houses. The conditions here are not the ones in a national plumbing blog.
The North End and older Boise stock are due
A lot of Boise housing still has original galvanized supply. Once those lines start pinhole-leaking, patching one joint at a time is paying rent on a pipe that is going to fail again two rooms over. A planned repipe is cheaper than a year of emergencies.
Polybutylene has a clock on it
If your house was built in the 80s or 90s with gray or silver plastic supply, that is polybutylene. Insurers are dropping it, and it fails from the inside. We replace it with PEX or copper and document the work so you have something to show a buyer or an underwriter.
Copper or PEX is a real choice here
Hard valley water is harder on copper than people expect, and PEX has come a long way. We will tell you which belongs in your house based on access, water quality, and how long you plan to stay — not which one is easier for us to run.
How the job actually goes
- 01
Walk the house
We map every line, note access, and give you a scope in copper, PEX, or a mix — with a firm number.
- 02
Run the new system
New lines go in while the old ones still work. We protect floors and keep a bathroom live as long as we can.
- 03
Cut over and walk through
Old pipe comes out, new system is tested, and we walk every room with you before we pack up.

Whole-House Repipe questions we get in Boise.
- How long does a whole-house repipe take?
- Most Boise and Meridian homes are a few days, not a few weeks. We stage the work so you keep water as long as possible, and we tell you the shutoff windows before we start — not the morning of.
- Do I have to move out?
- Almost never. We work around finished spaces, protect floors, and keep a bathroom in service. You will hear us. You should not have to live somewhere else.
- PEX or copper — which should I pick?
- PEX is faster, quieter, and holds up well against freeze and hard water. Copper is still the right call in some exposed runs and in homes where the next buyer will want to see metal. We will walk the house and recommend one, not sell both.
- Will this help me sell the house?
- A documented repipe is one of the few plumbing upgrades a Boise buyer and an inspector both recognize as real. It also takes a common inspection fail — galvanized or polybutylene — off the table.
