<h2>Whole House Repipes</h2>
<h2><span style="font-size: 12pt;">When should I repipe?</span></h2>
<p>Repiping should not wait until you start noticing leaks. Watch for  signs associated with degenerating pipes, such as flakes of dark  material in your water, odd-tasting tap water, or decreasing water  pressure. Many homeowners think the "squeeze" test is adequate -- this  is, when you squeeze a pipe in your hand or between your fingers,  looking for leaks in the joint that show up when the pipe gives a  little. But pipes degenerated to this point have gone too far. Instead  of using the squeeze test, if you think you may have a problem with your  pipes, <a target="_blank" href="index.php?option=com_contact&amp;view=contact&amp;catid=1:hps-mechanical-contacts&amp;id=1-flying">give us a call at (661) 397-2121</a> and we'll be glad to give you a free estimate.</p>

<h2>What should I expect during repiping?</h2>
<p>Repiping is a major house repair, on a par with replacing your roof.  There are some specific things you can expect, and others you can ask us about.</p>
<ul style="list-style-position: outside !important;">
<li>Depending on the size of your home and number of plumbing fixtures you can expect anywhere between two to five days for a repipe project.&nbsp; HPS will add additional manpower to your project if you are under a tight timeframe for completion.</li>
<li>You won't have to move, though your water will be turned off from  time to time to allow for connection of fresh piping.</li>
<li>Furnishings may have to be moved, and walls and ceilings will  certainly need to be cut through in certain areas and patched.&nbsp; HPS technicians coordinate the drywall repair as part of the estimate so when the job is done you can sit back and relax.</li>
