PEX Repiping in Saint Louis, MO

PEX is the most common material for whole house repiping today. It is flexible cross linked polyethylene, it snakes through walls with fewer openings than rigid pipe, and it does not pit or scale the way copper and steel do.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Saint Louis, MO homeowners with plumbers who repipe in PEX. Two systems are common. PEX-A uses expansion fittings under ASTM F1960, where the pipe shrinks back over the fitting. PEX-B uses crimp or clamp rings under ASTM F1807. Both are approved by the major plumbing codes.

Layout matters as much as pipe. A home run manifold gives each fixture its own line and shutoff. A trunk and branch layout uses less pipe. The plumber picks based on how many bathrooms you have and where the water heater sits.

PEX should not sit in direct sunlight or touch a water heater flue, so the first 18 inches at most heaters is metal. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 for a PEX repiping plan.

How it works

Four steps to water line replacement in Saint Louis, MO

  1. 01

    Describe the pipe

    Tell us what you see: a wet yard, rusty water, low pressure or old gray polybutylene. That points to the service line, the house pipes, or both.

    Talk it through

    We go over the job and the likely scope on the phone, then book a local plumber for Saint Louis, MO.

  3. 03

    Site visit and plan

    The plumber checks the pipe material, the run length and the shutoff, then lays out trench, trenchless or repipe options.

  4. 04

    Work and inspection

    You pay the local plumber directly. The price is agreed before any water line replacement or whole house repiping starts.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about PEX Repiping in Saint Louis, MO.

Talk to a person
What is the difference between water line replacement and whole house repiping?
Water line replacement covers the buried service pipe from the meter or curb stop to the house. Whole house repiping replaces the supply lines inside the walls. Older homes often need both because the pipes are the same age.
How long does a whole house repipe take?
Most occupied homes take two to five days, depending on size, number of bathrooms and access. Water is usually restored at the end of each work day.
How deep is a water service line buried?
It has to sit below the local frost line. That can be 12 inches in warm southern areas and 5 feet or more in the northern states. Your local code sets the exact depth.
How can I tell if I have polybutylene pipe?
Polybutylene is flexible gray or blue plastic, often stamped PB2110, found in many homes built from about 1978 to 1995. Check near the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house.
Should I replace my main shutoff valve during a repipe?
Yes. An old gate valve often seizes or fails to close fully. A full port quarter turn ball valve is a small addition to a repipe or water line replacement job.
