Pipe Repair & Repiping Services in Phoenix
We handle the full range of pipe work: emergency pipe repair, targeted section replacement, and whole-house repiping using PEX or copper.
Phoenix has two dominant repiping triggers that other cities don't face as intensely. First, polybutylene pipes — gray plastic supply lines installed in homes built 1978–1995 — are now well past their functional life. They react with chlorine in municipal water, become brittle, and fail at joints without warning. Homes in Mesa's Dobson Ranch area, Tempe, Chandler, and older Glendale subdivisions frequently contain these pipes. Second, original copper in pre-1985 homes has endured 40+ years of hard water corrosion. Pitting corrosion creates pinhole leaks that start small and multiply across the system over time — the first pinhole is a warning, not an isolated event.

Phoenix Pipe Materials by Home Age
Knowing what pipe material is in your home tells you what to expect in terms of repair frequency and lifespan.
Pre-1960 homes: Some galvanized steel supply lines may remain. These have typically corroded to very narrow internal diameter, producing low water pressure and brown water. Full replacement is the only solution.
1960–1977: Mostly copper supply lines. After 50+ years in hard water, these are developing pinholes. Watch for water stains on ceilings and walls or recurring slab leaks.
1978–1995: High probability of polybutylene (gray plastic) supply lines. These require replacement regardless of current condition — they fail without warning.
1985–2000: Mix of CPVC and copper. CPVC becomes brittle in Arizona heat after 20–25 years — homes from this era are hitting that window now, with snap failures at fittings during renovation or inspection.
Post-2000: Mostly PEX and copper, which perform well. But hard water still affects water heaters, fixtures, and softener systems regardless of pipe material.
