For homeowners in Central Florida, repiping can protect your property, improve daily comfort, and help you avoid costly plumbing emergencies.
What Does Repiping Mean?
Repiping means replacing old or worn-out water lines throughout your home or business with new, reliable piping materials. Instead of continuing to patch one plumbing issue after another, repiping addresses the root of the problem.
This is often recommended for older homes with outdated plumbing materials or recurring pipe issues.
Use our experience for your project and select CPUC or Pex piping. We have done many repipe projects where we either go through the floor to lay the new piping or go into the ceiling to run the cold and hot water lines. It’s generally up to the homeowner which way you’d like the lines to go, and we’ll take care of the rest. From design and permitting to installation and code approvals, Harvey Baker Plumbing is the best choice for Orlando residents repiping their home and business.
There are several reasons you may need to consider repiping:
- Copper piping: lightening strikes we experience in Central Florida can cause copper pipes to split and spring leaks
- Pipe degeneration: Over time pipes may degenerate causing low water pressure, rusty colored water or leaky pipes
- Hard water: here in Central Florida, lime and other mineral deposits may cause flow problems like slow warming of water to hot, or inconsistent water temperatures.
Other Signs Your Older Home May Need Repiping

- Rust-colored or discolored water
