Whole-House Repiping — Foley, AL
Homes with aging galvanized steel or polybutylene pipes often face repeated leaks, discolored water, and low pressure. A full repipe replaces all supply lines with modern PEX or copper, solving the problem permanently.
Signs Your Home Needs Repiping
Rust-colored water, recurring leaks in multiple locations, noticeably low water pressure throughout the house, and pipes older than 50 years are all indicators that a full repipe may be more cost-effective than continual repairs.
Galvanized Pipe in Baldwin County
Many homes built in Foley and surrounding Baldwin County communities before the 1970s used galvanized steel supply pipes. These pipes corrode from the inside over time, restricting flow and eventually failing. Once corrosion is advanced, spot repairs rarely hold.
What Repiping Involves
A whole-house repipe typically takes 2–4 days. Contractors access pipes through walls, replace all supply lines, and patch openings when complete. Most families can remain in the home during the process. Alabama permits may be required — ask your contractor.
