Slab Repiping and Reroutes in Saint Paul, MN

Houses built on a concrete slab often have their water lines running under the slab itself. When those lines start leaking, the old answer was to jackhammer the floor. A reroute is usually cleaner.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Saint Paul, MN homeowners with plumbers who reroute slab plumbing. The crew abandons the lines in the concrete and runs new PEX through the attic or interior walls, dropping down to each fixture. In attics, the pipe is insulated or kept under the insulation blanket to protect it from heat and freezing.

Warning signs of a failing line under the slab include a warm spot on the floor, the sound of running water with everything off, and cracks or damp spots in flooring. Rerouting one line is a repair. When several have failed, a whole house repiping through the attic is often the better spend.

Flooring and foundation stay intact. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 about slab repiping in your home.

How it works

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Slab Repiping and Reroutes in Saint Paul, MN.

Talk to a person
Is PEX or copper better for repiping?
PEX costs less, needs fewer wall openings and does not corrode. Copper handles heat well and lasts in friendly water but can pit in aggressive water. Many homes with past pinhole leaks choose PEX.
How can I tell if I have polybutylene pipe?
Polybutylene is flexible gray or blue plastic, often stamped PB2110, found in many homes built from about 1978 to 1995. Check near the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house.
Will my walls be torn up during a repipe in Saint Paul, MN?
No. Plumbers cut small access holes where pipes turn or connect, then patch, tape, mud and texture them. Closets and cabinet backs are used where possible.
Do I need a permit for water line replacement?
Most cities require a plumbing permit for service line replacement and whole house repiping, plus an inspection before the trench is backfilled or walls are closed.
Should I replace my main shutoff valve during a repipe?
Yes. An old gate valve often seizes or fails to close fully. A full port quarter turn ball valve is a small addition to a repipe or water line replacement job.
