Metro Atlanta Whole-Home Repipe Specialists
Most plumbers stop at the pipes. Plumbing Express sees it through to the paint, so when we leave, it looks like we were never there.
Why Plumbing Express
Repipe Specialists, Not General Plumbers
There are two kinds of companies that will take a repipe job. A general plumbing contractor does repiping the same way they do water heaters, drain clears, and fixture installs. Competently, but as one service among many. Plumbing Express does one thing: whole-home repiping.
Our crews, all W-2 employees, not subcontractors, repipe homes every single day. We’ve completed thousands of repipes across Metro Atlanta. That repetition produces a faster, cleaner, more predictable process, and significantly better restoration work, than a generalist who repipes a few times a year.
The difference shows up in the drywall. It shows up in the schedule. And it shows up in whether your home looks like a job site or a finished home when we leave.
What Sets Our Repipes Apart
One Team. One Quote. One Point of Accountability. You’re not managing a plumber and a drywall sub and a painter. One crew handles the full job, from first pipe to final paint.
Fixed Price, No Surprises. Your quote covers everything included in the scope. We don’t add lines after the fact for drywall, texture, or paint because those are already part of the job.
Your Water Is On Each Evening. A repipe doesn’t mean a week without running water. Our crews work in phases so your home is fully functional every night during the project.
“Plumbing Express backs their re-pipe material and workmanship for twenty-holy-crap-years. That’s also transferable to the next property owner… when the job is finished, you’re sleeping easy every night.”
We Don't Stop at the Pipes
“Turn-key” is used loosely in the trades. At Plumbing Express, it means one specific thing: we don’t hand you a phone book when the pipes are done.
A Plumbing Express whole-home repipe includes the plumbing work, the drywall repair, the ceiling texture restoration, and the paint blending. All from one team, under one fixed-price quote, with one point of accountability. You don’t coordinate contractors. You don’t chase painters. You don’t live with open walls while you wait for a drywall crew’s availability.
When we leave, your home looks like we were never there. That’s not a marketing line. It’s what our customers consistently describe when the job is done.
“The fact that they handle the entire job, plumbing, drywall repair and painting, means you are only dealing with one contractor.”
What a Plumbing Express Repipe Includes
- Complete replacement of all supply lines (hot and cold)
- PEX-A (Uponor), FlowGuard Gold CPVC, or copper piping, your choice, priced accordingly
- All new angle stops and shut-off valves
- Drywall repair at every access point
- Ceiling texture restoration (orange peel, knockdown, smooth, matched to your existing finish)
- Paint blending at all patched areas
- Water pressure test and system inspection before job close
- Up to 30-year manufacturer warranty on materials
- Water restored to your home each evening
Which Replacement Pipe Is Right for Your Home?
We install three materials, all proven for Metro Atlanta homes:
PEX-A (Uponor)
Flexible, freeze-resistant, and highly durable. PEX-A is the most popular choice for whole-home repiping in Metro Atlanta. It carries a 25-year manufacturer warranty.
FlowGuard Gold CPVC
A rigid, code-approved alternative that performs reliably in Metro Atlanta’s climate. FlowGuard Gold CPVC is a strong choice for homeowners who prefer a more traditional installation style. Carries a 30-year manufacturer warranty.
Copper
The standard in pipe material for decades, and still a strong choice for homeowners who want it. Copper is durable, well-understood by every inspector and appraiser, and performs reliably when installed in a home with compatible water chemistry.
Your Home a Repipe Candidate?
A whole-home repipe isn’t something most people plan years in advance. There’s usually a trigger. For the Metro Atlanta homeowners we work with, it’s almost always one of these five situations.
You Have Polybutylene Pipe
Gray plastic pipe installed in Metro Atlanta homes from roughly 1978 to 1995. Stamped PB2110 or “Qest.” If your home was built or significantly plumbed during that window, there’s a reasonable chance it’s still in your walls.
If your home has polybutylene pipe, the question isn’t whether it will eventually fail. It’s whether you want to address it on your terms, with a planned project, or on its terms, with an emergency call and water running down a ceiling. Polybutylene doesn’t fail on a schedule. It fails without warning, inside walls, in places you can’t see until the damage is already done.
The homeowners who planned ahead describe the repipe as a relief. The ones who waited describe something else entirely.
You Have Older PEX Pipe That's Failing
Not all PEX is the same. Certain PEX systems installed between roughly 2005 and 2020 have a documented failure history: pinhole leaks, cracking, and premature degradation in systems that should have decades of service life remaining.
If your home was built or repiped during that window and you’re seeing unexplained leaks, the pipe type itself, not the installation, may be the problem. A repipe replaces the system entirely rather than chasing individual failures.
You Have Recurring Pinhole Leaks in Copper
One copper leak is a repair. Two is a pattern. By the third, you’re patching a system that’s failing systemically, not in isolated spots.
Repiping the home costs less, in total dollars and total disruption, than continuing to open walls one leak at a time.
You Have Recurring Slab Leaks
Multiple slab leaks in the same system mean the pipe running under your foundation is aging and failing. Each repair buys time until the next one.
Plumbing Express resolves recurring slab leak problems through whole-home rerouting. New supply lines run above the slab through walls and ceilings, bypassing the failing underground pipe entirely. You stop reacting to leaks because there’s no next leak to have.
You Have a Real Estate Transaction
A repipe flag on an inspection report, especially polybutylene or failing PEX, can kill a deal, delay a closing, or force a price negotiation. Plumbing Express works directly with sellers, buyers’ agents, and realtors across Metro Atlanta to turn inspection flags into resolved line items. We also coordinate pay-at-closing arrangements for qualifying transactions.
How a Plumbing Express Whole-Home Repipe Works
Quote and Planning
We assess your home’s current pipe system, square footage, and layout. You receive a fixed-price quote that covers all labor and materials: pipe, drywall, texture, and paint. No estimates that change. No variable pricing.
Pipe Replacement
Our crew opens access points throughout the home and installs new supply lines. Cut-outs are numbered and staged for reassembly. Water pressure is restored to your home each evening.
“Each sheetrock cut-out was numbered and neatly stacked for the next day. All pipes were replaced and water was back on by dinnertime that first day.”
Pressure Test and Inspection
Before any wall is closed, we pressure-test the full system and conduct a thorough walkthrough. Nothing gets patched until the plumbing is confirmed complete and correct.
Restoration
Drywall is patched, ceiling textures are matched, and paint is blended at every access point. Our restoration crew works from the same job scope. There’s no handoff to a separate contractor.
“I look closely at the walls and CANNOT tell where any work was done.”

Service couldn’t be completed due to needing a new system. We appreciate the very informative visit as well as insight that could help after a new unit install.

Plumbing Express was great. I had a failed sump pump that had partially overflowed into the basement. Nasty. Josh was the tech that did the work. He was efficient, neat and courteous. I will use Plumbing Express if I have any other plumbing needs and I will recommend them to my family and friends.

Ron was our second plumber from this company. The first plumber came, examined pipes and said he found no leak, even though we had experiences a large amount of water leaking from the ceiling in the finished basement. Several days later we had another leak-same area but less water the second time. Ron came in, listened to our frustration and did a more thorough inspection of the pipes and identified the problem. He was very personable and professional. On his third visit, we had several replacement pipes installed and are without leaks again. Our frustration, with the situation, was my son had used your company to replace pipes when he purchased the home and founding out not all the pipes were included with that process.

Called Plumbing Express as tankless hot water not operating. Their website states "Get Free Plumbing Quote ". When service man showed up an looked at unit he said there would be a $207 charge to look into unit in order to give me a quote to fix unit. Due to not having hot water and time required to get another company to address the problem I agreed to pay $207 for quote. After looking in unit I was told he would not be able to fix due to age of unit and parts not available. I think he should have said parts not available when seeing model number on front of unit and I would not have wasted $207.

Plumbing Express is my go-to plumbing support team. They have fair pricing, well-vetted technicians, and a truly exceptional scheduling system. Rod, my technician, was the best. He quickly assessed the problem and gave a fair estimate, working hard to keep to the schedule. He even brought Josh along on the day of service, and the two of them worked well together. They addressed the bathtub drain repair with expertise and caused the least sheetrock damage. It was difficult to replace the broken pipe and get to the upstairs drain, but together they made it a success.

Dylan from Plumbing Express came over and replaced our garbage disposal for us. It was older, had a massive leak, and needed to be replaced. He did a great job and was in and out in about 30 minutes! I also asked him to check out a potential leak I had been hearing in my ceiling. He used a thermal camera to investigate and was very honest and upfront about what he found. Rather than immediately cutting into the drywall to confirm something uncertain, he explained that the sound could simply be pipes expanding and that opening the wall might be unnecessary. He recommended monitoring the area and waiting to see if a wet spot appears, which would clearly indicate an actual leak. I really appreciated that he didn’t try to upsell or push unnecessary work. Overall, great service and a great guy. They will definitely be our go-to plumbing service from now on.

Once again we had some problems under our kitchen sink so we called Plumbing Express who were able to get us on their schedule pretty quickly after these storms Tim Robinson came out to do the job. Tim has been to our house for a number of different plumbing problems. He is personable & professional. As usual he did a great job even though this particular problem turned out to be far more difficult than anyone had expected. As frustrating as it was, Tim worked through it until he finished the job. We can't thank him enough.

Common Questions About Whole-Home Repiping
How much does a whole-home repipe cost in Metro Atlanta?
Most single-family home repipes in Metro Atlanta cost between $8,500 and $14,000. The final price depends on home size, pipe material, and restoration complexity. Plumbing Express provides fixed-price quotes that cover everything, pipe, drywall, texture, and paint, with no add-ons after the fact.
How long does a repipe take?
Most single-family homes take 2 to 4 days for pipe replacement, plus an additional 1 to 2 days for full drywall and paint restoration. Your water is on each evening throughout the project.
Do I need to leave my house during a repipe?
Not typically. Most homeowners stay in their homes throughout the job. We work systematically through the house and restore water pressure each day before we leave.
Is my home a candidate for repiping?
Any home with polybutylene pipe, aging copper with a recurring leak history, or certain older PEX systems with documented failures is a strong candidate. The best way to know is a quote walkthrough. We assess the system and give you a clear picture of what you’re working with.
What warranty does Plumbing Express provide?
PEX-A (Uponor) carries a 25-year manufacturer warranty. FlowGuard Gold CPVC carries a 30-year manufacturer warranty. Both are transferable to a subsequent owner.
Can you sell a house with polybutylene pipes?
You can, but expect it to come up during inspection. Most buyers and lenders in Metro Atlanta flag polybutylene as a material concern. A completed repipe with documentation removes the issue from the transaction entirely.
What is the difference between PEX-A and CPVC?
Both are proven replacement materials for Metro Atlanta homes. PEX-A (Uponor) is flexible, freeze-resistant, and carries a 25-year manufacturer warranty. FlowGuard Gold CPVC is rigid, code-approved, and carries a 30-year manufacturer warranty. We install both and can walk you through the trade-offs for your specific home during the estimate.
