Why Farrell Plumbing

Why polybutylene homes call us first.

Old galvanized, polybutylene, or pinhole-leaking copper pipes hurt your water pressure, your water quality, and your Florida homeowner's insurance. Farrell Plumbing replaces the whole system with PEX in a clean, low-impact install.

Same day estimates with fixed upfront pricing

Code-compliant PEX installations

Drywall protection and minimal disruption

10-year workmanship warranty on all repipes

Permits, inspections, and final patch coordination handled for you

PEX vs Copper Repipe: Why We Install PEX

Material choice is the first decision on any repipe. PEX A with crimp ring fittings is what we install today on every full job. It bends through tight attic spaces without elbows (fewer fittings hidden behind drywall, fewer failure points later) and resists the mineral content of Pasco County water better than any supply line material available. We carry Uponor and Viega tubing and never mix two manufacturers' fittings on the same line.

Most homes get a trunk and branch layout: one main line running the length of the house with branch lines feeding each fixture. Faster install, lower cost. Two story or larger floor plans sometimes get a home run manifold instead, where each fixture gets its own uninterrupted line from a central manifold with individual shut off control.

Shut Off Valves, PRV, and Expansion Tank Upgrades

A repipe is the right moment to swap everything else in the supply system that has aged alongside the pipes. While the lines are open, we replace every angle stop under sinks and toilets (brass valves on a thirty year old home are usually seized), the main shut off valve at the home entry (one of the most important valves in the house and one of the most commonly stuck), and the pressure regulator if incoming pressure is above 80 PSI. Closed loop systems get an expansion tank installed or swapped. Hose bibs get replaced as needed. Water hammer arrestors go in at washing machine hookups when line geometry calls for them.

Polybutylene, Copper Pinhole, and Galvanized Repipe

The most common job we run is a polybutylene to PEX conversion on a 1980s or 1990s home. Copper pinhole to PEX conversions are next, especially on coastal homes (covered in our leak repair service in Port Richey) where salt air and decades of hard water have thinned the original copper. Galvanized steel to PEX shows up on homes built before the late 1960s and runs longer because galvanized fittings often resist clean cutting. Slab homes with a leak history sometimes need an overhead reroute, where we abandon the line under the slab and run new PEX through the attic to bypass it entirely.

Insurance is a real driver here. Our guide on polybutylene supply lines and Florida home insurance walks through what to expect if your carrier has flagged your home, and the 2026 repipe cost guide covers real pricing for every layout we run.

Repipe Certificate for Home Insurance and 10-Year Warranty

Every repipe quote covers the county permit, the code inspection sign off, manufacturer warranty registration on the PEX, our 10 year workmanship warranty on the install, and a written insurance packet. That packet (a certificate of repipe, timestamped attic and wall photos, the permit number, the inspector sign off, the PEX specification sheet) is what your carrier needs to remove polybutylene from your four point inspection. Most carriers accept it directly without follow up.

Drywall and paint repair after the access cuts is coordinated through local partners we have worked with for years. Single story homes are usually one full business day. Two story or larger plans run into a second day. Water service is restored each evening so the home stays livable throughout the project.

Warning Signs To Watch For

  • Discolored, rusty, or metallic tasting water at multiple fixtures
  • Recurring pinhole leaks in copper lines
  • Polybutylene or galvanized supply lines installed before 1995
  • Low pressure that gets worse when more than one fixture runs
  • Water spots on drywall, ceilings, or under sinks

FAQs

Repiping questions, answered.

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

01 How long does a whole house repipe take?
Most homes in Pasco and Hernando County are completed in one to two business days. Larger homes or homes with finished slabs may take three.
02 Do I have to leave my home during the repipe?
No. Water service is restored each evening and we contain dust to active work zones.
03 Is PEX better than copper for Florida homes?
PEX resists the corrosive water chemistry common in our area, flexes with shifting slabs, and carries a strong manufacturer warranty. PEX is the only material we install on whole-house repipes.
04 Does a repipe add value to my home?
Yes. Updated supply lines remove a major insurability and inspection issue and can add real estate value, especially for homes built before 2000.
