Pipe & Drain
Pipe Replacement
When repairs start recurring on the same line, or your home still runs on original galvanized pipe, repiping resolves the root cause instead of chasing individual leaks.
Many pre-war NYC homes were originally plumbed with galvanized steel, which corrodes from the inside out over decades, restricting flow and eventually failing. Repiping with copper or PEX resolves pressure issues and prevents future leaks throughout the system.
We plan repiping in phases where possible to limit wall and ceiling disruption, prioritizing sections with active leaks or worst corrosion first, and coordinate access carefully in occupied homes.
