PEX Repiping in Kansas City, MO

PEX is the most common material for whole house repiping today. It is flexible cross linked polyethylene, it snakes through walls with fewer openings than rigid pipe, and it does not pit or scale the way copper and steel do.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Kansas City, MO homeowners with plumbers who repipe in PEX. Two systems are common. PEX-A uses expansion fittings under ASTM F1960, where the pipe shrinks back over the fitting. PEX-B uses crimp or clamp rings under ASTM F1807. Both are approved by the major plumbing codes.

Layout matters as much as pipe. A home run manifold gives each fixture its own line and shutoff. A trunk and branch layout uses less pipe. The plumber picks based on how many bathrooms you have and where the water heater sits.

PEX should not sit in direct sunlight or touch a water heater flue, so the first 18 inches at most heaters is metal. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 for a PEX repiping plan.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about PEX Repiping in Kansas City, MO.

Talk to a person
How do I know if my main water line needs replacement in Kansas City, MO?
Look for a wet patch in the yard that never dries, a meter that moves with every fixture closed, low pressure at the hose bib, or rusty water. If the line is galvanized, lead or polybutylene, replacement usually beats repair.
How long does a whole house repipe take?
Most occupied homes take two to five days, depending on size, number of bathrooms and access. Water is usually restored at the end of each work day.
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 deep is a water service line buried?
It has to sit below the local frost line. That can be 12 inches in warm southern areas and 5 feet or more in the northern states. Your local code sets the exact depth.
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.
