Plumbing Price Guide

Whole-House Repiping: what does it cost?

A clear look at the work, the price factors, and the questions to ask before you approve a plumbing job.

Start With The Price

What will the work cost?

Old supply lines can turn one leak into the next. A whole-house repipe replaces the hot and cold water lines. The layout, fixture count, and access determine the price for your home.

The work behind the number

About $5,800–$14,800 for the whole-house hot and cold supply-line work and permit in 11 reviewed projects. Exact reviewed scope amounts were $5,850–$14,750. Separate heaters, shower valves, faucets, and vent repairs were excluded where their charges could be separated. Finished-surface restoration needs its own written scope.

What can change your price?

  • The number of bathrooms and fixtures, the home layout, and the length of pipe runs.
  • Attic, wall, exterior, and bathroom access, including finished tile or cabinetry.
  • Required valve upgrades, permit scope, and additional plumbing work.

Behind The Price

Where this guidance comes from.

Reviewed completed-job line items

We checked actual charged line items on 13 distinct completed whole-house repipe jobs in Housecall Pro and retained 11 with a separable repipe-and-permit price, scheduled January 28–September 10, 2026. We excluded two mixed bundles whose discounts could not be allocated confidently. For two other bundles, separately priced unrelated work was removed; the remaining jobs used their final repipe invoice amounts, including recorded credits or discounts. The resulting scope amounts were $5,850–$14,750, rounded outward to $5,800–$14,800 for planning. Segments of the same job were counted once. The range is a selected historical sample, not a guaranteed quote or a price per bathroom.

Scope: About $5,800–$14,800 for the whole-house hot and cold supply-line work and permit in 11 reviewed projects. Exact reviewed scope amounts were $5,850–$14,750. Separate heaters, shower valves, faucets, and vent repairs were excluded where their charges could be separated. Finished-surface restoration needs its own written scope.

Different work. Different price.

Whole-house supply repipe and permit

About $5,800–$14,800

11 distinct completed projects with actual line items checked. The number of fixtures, routing and access change the work.

Partial repipe or overhead reroute

Written proposal

A smaller scope is not priced by dividing a whole-house total.

Finished-surface restoration

Quoted separately

Drywall, tile, paint, cabinetry and other access-hole repairs are excluded unless the proposal specifically includes them.

Heaters, shower valves and unrelated repairs

Separate scope

Some reviewed invoices bundled these items with the repipe. We separated their charges or excluded the ambiguous bundle from the planning range.

What changes the price at your property?

  • The number of bathrooms and fixtures, the home layout, and the length of pipe runs.
  • Attic, wall, exterior, and bathroom access, including finished tile or cabinetry.
  • Required valve upgrades, permit scope, and additional plumbing work.
  • Repairing access holes and finished surfaces after the plumbing work.

What the work covers.

  • New hot and cold supply piping and the plumbing work listed in the written proposal.
  • Both the lowest and highest reviewed examples include a $450 permit; confirm the permit scope in your proposal.
  • A 10-year repipe workmanship warranty.

What may be separate.

  • Drywall, tile, paint, cabinetry, and other access-hole repairs unless explicitly included.
  • Finish grading, landscaping, irrigation repairs, and specialist dust cleanup unless listed.
  • Drain or sewer replacement; a supply-line repipe is a different project.

Before you approve the work.

Make sure your written proposal explains the diagnosis, the work included, any separate items, and the total price. If something is unclear, ask. We want you to understand your options before you decide.

FAQs

Whole-House Repiping pricing questions, answered.

Quick answers from our expert plumbers. Still have a question? Call our team and a real person will pick up.

01 Is this a price per bathroom or square foot?
No. These are observed whole-project examples. Fixture count matters, but access and routing can change the amount just as much. We inspect your home and prepare a written proposal.
02 How long will a repipe take?
Many homes take one to two days. More involved access can take two to three days or longer. Your proposal should explain the schedule, water interruptions, and the work needed after the plumbing inspection.
03 Does the price include drywall and paint?
Do not assume it does. Both verified endpoint proposals excluded finished-surface repairs. Your written proposal should state who will repair drywall, tile, paint, or cabinetry and whether that work is separate.
04 What warranty comes with the repipe?
Farrell Plumbing confirms a 10-year workmanship warranty on whole-house repipes. Manufacturer warranties are separate. Ask for the applicable terms with your written proposal.
