The average cost of repiping a house can vary greatly depending on the size and layout of the home, as well as the type of piping used. Generally speaking, it can range anywhere from $4,995 to $15,000 or more. The most common materials used for repiping are copper and PEX tubing. Copper is typically more expensive than PEX tubing and can take longer to install and is also much more intrusive. Other factors that may affect the cost include increasing labor costs and any additional plumbing fixtures that need to be replaced or installed during the process.

The best replacement for polybutylene pipes is PEX piping. PEX has been used as a reliable plumbing material and its durability, flexibility, and resistance to corrosion make it an ideal choice for repiping projects. It also withstands temperature fluctuations compared to other materials such as PVC so it's great for hot water lines. In conclusion, PEX’s lack of toxic substances renders it an ideal choice for use in drinking water systems with no fear of contamination from metal or other contaminants present in corroded piping.

If your tap water has a metallic taste, it usually indicates the presence of metals such as iron, copper, or zinc in your plumbing system. This can be caused by corroded pipes releasing metal particles into the water supply or mineral buildup affecting the taste. It is essential to identify and address these issues to ensure safe drinking water.

Research suggests that polybutylene pipes are too fragile to withstand common disinfectants found in the public water supply and will quickly become brittle and crack from the inside out. Over time, once enough mini fractures have formed in the pipe, it will wear out completely, rupture, causing a leak or flooding of a home. This is why no insurance carriers will no longer cover a home with Polybutylene piping. Homes can no longer be sold in many areas without removing the polybutylene and repiping the homes water supply making it a requirement to repipe a home.
