Why Repipe Your Home

- Health issues due to rust and sediment in the water
- Rusted galvanized pipes
- Split polybutylene pipes
- Ruptured, split, or corroded copper pipes
Upgrading your pipes? Don’t overlook your gas lines. We offer gas leak repair services in Salt Lake City as part of our repiping projects to ensure a safe and efficient system.
Potential Problems with Copper Pipes
It’s commonly believed that copper pipes are reliable and less prone to leaking and many homeowners opt to install them. However, copper piping is susceptible to splitting under pressure, particularly when the water inside them freezes. If your home has copper pipes, we recommend shutting off water to your home when you leave for any extended duration, especially in the winter months. If this is not an option or if you are looking for a more reliable piping solution, we recommend pex piping.
Copper Pipes and Corrosion
In addition to splitting under pressure or during freezes, copper pipes also eventually corrode. This corrosion weakens the pipe and makes leaks and pipe failure more likely. Greenish-blue coloring or white sediment build up on your copper piping are signs of corrosion, and a good indication that your home may need repiping soon. Contact Keemer Plumbing today and update your old pipes to protect your home from a plumbing emergency.

At Keemer Plumbing, we take repiping services to a whole new level, combining unmatched expertise with care for your home and family. Repiping isn’t just about replacing old, worn-out pipes—it’s about ensuring your home’s plumbing system is modern, efficient, and built to last. Our team of experienced professionals uses Uponor PEX piping, a durable and flexible material designed to withstand wear and tear, temperature changes, and the test of time. This means your home’s plumbing will deliver reliable performance for years to come.
But we know that a repipe project can feel overwhelming. That’s why we go above and beyond to make the process as smooth as possible. We protect your floors and belongings, laying down plastic sheeting and covering other vulnerable areas in your home to prevent damage and keep your space clean. By the time we’re done, your home will look just as pristine as when we started—only with a top-of-the-line plumbing system in place.
What Makes Our Repipe Services Stand Out?
When you choose Keemer Plumbing, you’re choosing a team that prioritizes every detail of your project. Here’s what sets us apart:
- We Use Top-Tier Materials: Our team exclusively uses Uponor PEX piping, ensuring long-lasting, efficient plumbing for your home.
- Comprehensive Protection: We lay down plastic sheeting to protect your floors and cover furniture or other items to prevent any damage during the process.
- Unmatched Local Expertise: As the top local repipe experts, we bring years of knowledge and professionalism to every job.
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.
- Increase Home Value: Upgrading your plumbing system increases your home's value and appeal to potential buyers, as they will not have to worry about outdated or faulty plumbing.
How Much Will Repiping My Home Cost?
- The location of the leak/water damage
- Number of bathrooms in the home
- Piping location
- Kitchen location & piping
- Details in home construction affecting access to piping (i.e. panelling over sheetrock)
Financing Options
For a typical Utah home, repiping often lasts 50 years or more. Keemer Plumbing makes sure your repiping gets done right with the materials that best suit your home and needs. We also understand repiping is no small job, and are happy to offer financing through Service Finance to help your repiping fit your budget. Whether you’re facing a plumbing emergency or are looking to update your home’s water system, we are here to help you and your family get the quality water you deserve!
