Service Frequently Asked Questions
Q Is pipe rerouting better than direct slab repair?
Yes, in most cases rerouting is superior. It abandons under-slab pipes entirely, avoiding the dust, noise, and cost of concrete breaking, while replacing aging copper with durable PEX.
Q Will my water pressure be lower after a pipe rerouting?
No. Modern PEX lines and calculated routing pathways are designed to maintain or improve household water pressure.
