Replace Damaged Pipes and Stop Recurring Leaks

Pipe Repair and Repiping Services in New Braunfels and surrounding areas

When your pipes corrode, crack, or leak repeatedly in your New Braunfels home, patching individual leaks becomes a cycle that never ends. Plumb - New Braunfels LLC provides pipe repair and whole-home repiping services throughout New Braunfels to replace damaged or aging plumbing with new copper, PEX, or PVC pipe that meets current building codes.

We work on homes with galvanized steel pipes that have rusted through, polybutylene pipes that have become brittle, and copper pipes that have developed pinhole leaks from acidic water. Repiping can be done for a single bathroom, a section of your home, or the entire house depending on the extent of the damage. The new pipes are routed through walls, attics, or crawl spaces to minimize visible changes to your home.

If your New Braunfels home has frequent leaks or discolored water, contact us to schedule a pipe inspection.

How We Replace Old or Failing Pipes

We begin by inspecting your existing plumbing to identify which sections need replacement and which materials are best suited for your New Braunfels home. Then we shut off the water, remove the old pipe, and install new supply or drain lines using crimped PEX fittings, soldered copper joints, or glued PVC connections depending on the application.

After repiping, your water pressure will improve, rust stains and discoloration will disappear, and leaks will stop recurring. You will no longer hear rattling or banging when you turn on faucets, and your water will taste cleaner.

We open only the walls and ceilings necessary to access the old pipe, then patch and texture those areas once the new lines are in place and tested. PEX is flexible and requires fewer fittings, which reduces the number of openings we need to make. Copper is more durable and works better in exposed locations. We pull permits and arrange inspections to confirm the work meets local plumbing codes before closing walls.

You Probably Have a Few Questions

Homeowners in New Braunfels often ask us how long repiping takes, what materials we recommend, and how much of their home will be affected by the work.

How do I know if my home needs repiping?
Signs include frequent leaks, low water pressure, rust-colored water, visible corrosion on exposed pipes, and homes built before 1970 with original galvanized plumbing. A camera inspection can confirm the condition of your pipes.
What is the best material for repiping?
PEX is affordable, flexible, and resistant to freezing, making it a good choice for most New Braunfels homes. Copper lasts longer and works well in areas where pipes are exposed or subject to high heat.
How long does a whole-home repipe take?
Most whole-home repipes take three to five days, depending on the size of your home and the complexity of the layout. Partial repipes for a single bathroom or section can be completed in one to two days.
Will you have to open up my walls?
Yes, we make small access holes where needed to remove old pipe and install new lines. We patch, tape, and texture those openings, but you will need to repaint the affected areas.
Does repiping increase my home's value?
Yes, updated plumbing is a selling point and can prevent deal-breaking inspection issues. Buyers and appraisers view new pipes as a sign that the home has been maintained and is less likely to have hidden problems.
