Depending on your plumbing system, plumbers may use cross-linked polyethylene piping, which is durable, corrosion-proof, and freeze-resistant. Other material options include copper and chlorinated polyvinyl chloride.

Repiping can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks. Timelines for repiping vary depending on your home's size, number of fixtures, accessibility, and the size and experience of the plumbing team.

• Frequent leaks or pipe bursts
• Rusty or discolored water
• Fluctuating water temperatures
• Inconsistent water pressure
• Corroded, cracked, or deteriorated pipes

Excavation plumbing involves digging to access underground pipes for repair or replacement. Plumbers dig trenches and tunnels throughout the property to expose pipes from the top and bottom.

Excavation for plumbing is necessary for projects that can't tolerate less invasive methods, such as trenchless pipe repair or hydrojetting. In general, plumbers avoid excavation since it's more labor-intensive and disruptive than other methods and reserve it for jobs involving major damage, fragile or aging pipes, or environmental concerns.

Plumbing excavation takes between a few days to several weeks. The actual time required for excavation depends on soil conditions, the scale of repairs or replacements, the size of the plumbing team, and other factors.
