Repiping is the process of replacing pipes that are broken, corroded, or simply too old. When you are looking at a repiping project, our team will help you understand what you need to replace and how best to accomplish it.

Keep an eye out for these signs that indicate your pipes are in need of replacement: 

• Green corrosion spots that remain even after cleaning
• Black colored spots 
• Broken or cracked fittings

Any of the signs listed above are clear indications that your pipes need professional attention. In some cases, the signs of wear and tear can be obvious, but in others, it can be difficult to spot. It is important that you stay on top of the condition of your plumbing, as older or broken pipes can lead to leaks, water damage, and water contamination. If you notice any of the signs listed above, or suspect that there might be another issue lurking somewhere in your pipes, give us a call right away! We can help you resolve your problems before they develop into larger issues. 

Kitec Pipe Replacement in Sacramento, CA

If your home uses orange or blue pipes labeled “Kitec,” it is imperative that you call the experts at Sacramento Repipe & Plumbing for replacement. These pipes are a plumbing emergency waiting to happen. They were prominently used between 1995-2005, so if your home was built during those years it is likely that you have Kitec pipes in your home unless they have already been replaced.

Why you should replace your Kitec pipes:

• The orange (hot water) Kitec pipes are not very heat resistant, and can only withstand temperatures up to 180 degrees Fahrenheit. If the water in your home is set any hotter than that, which most are, the pipes will begin to quickly deteriorate, leak, or burst.
• The life span of Kitec pipes is very short, approximately 10 years. 
• Kitec pipes will also negatively impact your home's resell value. If you are planning on selling your home, these will be flagged during the home inspection phase and scare off potential buyers.

When we replace your existing pipes, we make sure to use modern materials, such as PVC, which allow for improved water flow and better resilience when it comes to breaks and leaks. It is important that a professional takes care of your repiping needs, as it can often mean that we need to get into the walls or subfloor of your property. This can be difficult to do on your own without the proper training or experience. With our help, your repiping will go smoothly without issue.
