WHOLE-HOME REPIPING IN SALT LAKE CITY
Keemer Plumbing specializes in whole-home repiping in Salt Lake City and surrounding Utah communities. If your home has aging, corroded, galvanized, polybutylene, or problem piping, our experienced plumbers can replace it with reliable Uponor Type A PEX or copper piping.
With 25 years of plumbing experience and hundreds of repipes completed, we know how to repipe homes efficiently while minimizing disruption. Our licensed, background-checked plumbers take pride in clean, professional workmanship and doing the job right.
WHY CONSIDER WHOLE-HOME REPIPING?
Older homes may have galvanized steel, copper, or polybutylene piping that can deteriorate over time. Warning signs can include low water pressure, rusty or discolored water, recurring leaks, corrosion, and changes in water quality. Whole-home repiping replaces aging or problem water lines with new piping throughout the home, helping improve reliability, water flow, and long-term protection against future leaks.
Common Problems from Old Pipes
- Reduced or slow water flow
- Buildup of sediment
- Rust or sediment in the water.
- Rusted galvanized pipes
- Split polybutylene pipes
- Ruptured, split, or corroded copper pipes
PEX OR COPPER FOR YOUR HOME REPIPE?
Keemer Plumbing offers both Uponor Type A PEX and copper for whole-home repiping. PEX is flexible, corrosion-resistant, and requires fewer fittings, making it an excellent choice for many homes. Copper is a proven, durable piping material and may be preferred for certain applications or by homeowners who want a traditional piping system. We’ll help you choose the right material for your home, plumbing system, and budget.
SIGNS YOUR OLD COPPER PIPES MAY NEED REPLACEMENT
Copper piping can provide decades of reliable service, but older copper can eventually develop corrosion, pinhole leaks, or other signs of deterioration. Green or blue staining, recurring leaks, visible corrosion, and declining water quality can indicate that your existing copper piping should be evaluated. If problems are occurring throughout the home, whole-home repiping may be more practical than continuing to repair individual leaks.
POLYBUTYLENE PIPE REPLACEMENT
Polybutylene, often called Poly-B or gray pipe, was commonly installed in homes from the late 1970s through the mid-1990s. As it ages, polybutylene can become brittle and develop cracks or leaks, sometimes with little visible warning. If your home still has polybutylene piping, Keemer Plumbing can replace it with Uponor Type A PEX or copper as part of a complete whole-home repipe. Our experienced repiping team will evaluate your plumbing system and provide a clear plan for replacing the old piping.
WHOLE-HOME REPIPING WITH UPONOR PEX
Keemer Plumbing installs Uponor Type A PEX for whole-home repiping. PEX is flexible, corrosion-resistant, and designed for long-lasting residential plumbing systems. Its flexibility allows us to route new water lines efficiently and use fewer fittings than many traditional piping systems. For homeowners replacing galvanized, polybutylene, or deteriorating piping, Uponor PEX provides a reliable option for both hot and cold water lines.
Benefits of Pex Piping
- Flexible piping requires fewer fittings and connections
- Resistant to corrosion, pitting, and scaling
- Helps reduce potential leak points
- Suitable for both hot and cold water lines
- Quieter than many traditional metal piping systems
- Resistant to damage from normal freezing conditions
- No soldering or open flame required for installation
- Certified for use in potable water systems
HOW REPIPING CAN IMPROVE YOUR HOME
Replacing aging or deteriorating plumbing can do more than help prevent leaks and unexpected pipe failures. A whole-home repipe can improve water flow, reduce problems caused by corrosion and buildup, and provide a more reliable plumbing system throughout your home.
Other Benefits from Repiping:
- Improved water flow and pressure
- Reduced risk of leaks and pipe failures
- Cleaner water by eliminating old, corroded piping
- More reliable plumbing throughout the home
- New piping designed for long-term performance
- Increased confidence in your home’s plumbing system
A whole-home repipe is a long-term investment in your home’s plumbing system. Keemer Plumbing installs quality piping and materials with careful attention to workmanship, helping give homeowners a dependable plumbing system built to last.

What Makes Our Repipe Services Stand Out?
When you choose Keemer Plumbing for a whole-home repipe, you’re getting an experienced local plumbing company focused on quality workmanship from start to finish.
- Quality Repiping Materials: We install Uponor Type A PEX and copper piping, allowing us to recommend the right material for your home and plumbing system.
- Protection of Your Home: We protect floors and belongings in work areas and make carefully placed access openings to help minimize disruption during your repipe.
- Experienced Local Repipers: With 25 years of plumbing experience and hundreds of repipes completed, our team has the experience to properly plan and complete whole-home repiping projects.
Here are five key reasons to repipe your house:
- Frequent Leaks: Persistent leaks in your plumbing system can cause water damage, mold, and costly repairs. Repiping eliminates the problem at its source rather than dealing with ongoing patchwork fixes.
- Low Water Pressure: Old or corroded pipes can restrict water flow, leading to reduced water pressure throughout the house. Repiping ensures a consistent and reliable water supply.
- Better water quality: Rust or corrosion in old pipes can cause water to turn brown or yellow and develop unpleasant odors. New pipes restore clean, clear water.
- Outdated Plumbing Materials: Older homes often have pipes made of materials like galvanized steel or polybutylene, which are prone to corrosion, breakage, or failure. Modern materials like PEX or copper are more durable and long-lasting.
- Added Confidence for Homeowners: Replacing outdated or deteriorating piping gives homeowners greater confidence in their plumbing system and can be an attractive improvement when maintaining or selling a home.
