How much does a whole-home repipe cost?
A whole-home repipe — replacing aging or failing water supply lines with modern PEX or copper — typically falls in a broad representative range of about $4,000–$15,000, depending on home size, number of bathrooms, pipe material, and access. Your real price depends on your specific home and plumbing — an on-site assessment is the only way to know.
These are representative ranges to help you plan — not a quote. Your actual price depends on your home, equipment, and scope, and can fall outside these ranges. The only way to know your real cost is a free on-site estimate.
What affects your repipe price
Home size & fixtures
More square footage, bathrooms, and fixtures mean more pipe and labor. A single-story home is usually easier (and cheaper) to repipe than a multi-story.
Pipe material
PEX is typically more cost-effective and faster to install; copper costs more in material and labor. We help you choose based on budget and preference.
Access & wall repair
Repiping requires opening walls/ceilings to reach lines, then patching. Accessibility (slab vs. crawl space, finishes) significantly affects cost.
Scope
A partial repipe (one problem run) costs far less than a full-home repipe; the right scope depends on whether corrosion is isolated or widespread.
What's typically included
- Assessment of existing plumbing and recommended scope
- New supply lines (PEX or copper) and connections
- Permits and inspection
- Standard drywall patching of access points (paint typically separate)
- Pressure testing and walkthrough
Often quoted separately
- Painting/finishing of patched areas (unless specified)
- Drain/sewer line work, which is a separate system
- Fixture upgrades unless included in scope

How much does it cost to repipe a house?
A representative range is about $4,000–$15,000, depending on home size, number of bathrooms, pipe material, and access. Larger or multi-story homes and full copper repipes run higher. An on-site assessment gives you an exact price.
Do I need a full repipe or just a repair?
It depends on whether the problem is isolated or widespread. A single failure can be a spot repair; repeated pinhole leaks, rusty water, and aging galvanized pipe across the home point toward a repipe. We assess and recommend honestly.
