Whole-house repipe
Supply lines are replaced throughout, from where water enters to every fixture. The plumber opens the walls where access is needed and closes them afterward.
Replacing the supply pipes inside a house is a repipe, and renewing the pipe that brings water in from outside is a service line replacement. We do both, in copper or PEX, for Mount Vernon homes.
Call and describe what the pipes are doing. A plumber looks at the house and says whether a full repipe, a partial one or a service line replacement fits the problem.

Supply lines are replaced throughout, from where water enters to every fixture. The plumber opens the walls where access is needed and closes them afterward.
If the trouble sits in one bathroom, the kitchen or a single floor, only those runs of pipe are changed and the remaining plumbing is left alone.
The line that carries water in to the house is replaced as a separate job, with new pipe running to the meter.
Copper is rigid metal pipe, and PEX is flexible plastic tubing. The plumber explains which suits your walls and your plans.
The city’s lead service line program says the owner is responsible for the water service line between the property line and the water meter. A full replacement under the program swaps the whole line for copper.
In October 2024 the city filed an inventory of 10,474 service lines and published a public service line map. State law also requires a Department of Health map, searchable by address, by October 16, 2026.
The city’s code asks for a building permit for any work that must conform to the Uniform Code, apart from a short list of exemptions. A plumber can explain what a repipe needs.
A leak in one run may be found without repiping the whole house. See leak detection and the water heater page, and the home page lists more services.
