Bizzy Bee Plumbing has been handling whole-home repipes for more than 20 years, replacing aging water lines in homes across the Triangle with dependable workmanship and straightforward service.
Most people don't wake up and decide they want to repipe their house. Usually they call after the second or third leak. Sometimes it's because the water pressure has slowly disappeared and they just got used to it.
A few months back we looked at a house in Winston-Salem where the owner had already fixed leaks under the kitchen sink, behind a bathroom wall, and in the crawlspace. He asked where the next one would be. The honest answer was nobody knew. The plumbing was simply worn out.
We still repair plenty of leaks. Not every home needs a complete repipe. But older galvanized pipe and some older water systems reach a point where patching one spot just moves the problem somewhere else.
We run into houses around Winston-Salem where three different plumbers have worked on the same system over the years. New fittings here. Old pipe there. A little copper mixed with older materials. After a while it turns into a guessing game.
A repipe gets rid of that guessing.
Rusty water in the tub.
Weak shower pressure.
A leak that shows up after another one was fixed.
Pipes making noise when water turns on.
Water lines that are simply old.
People ask us this every week.
Some houses work out better with PEX. Some owners would rather install copper. We look at how the house is built before recommending anything. There isn't one answer that fits every job.
The bigger thing is doing the work cleanly and making sure the whole system works when we're done.
Kids are home. Dogs are running around. Somebody still has to take a shower before work the next morning.
We understand that. We try to plan the work so the house isn't upside down any longer than it has to be.
We've looked at repipe projects in older neighborhoods, rental homes, remodels, and houses that have been in the same family for years. Ardmore, Sherwood Forest, Buena Vista, Washington Park and all over the Winston-Salem area, older plumbing eventually catches up with a house.
If we think you can get by with a repair, we'll tell you that.
If we think the plumbing is at the end of its life, we'll tell you that too.
If your Winston-Salem home has old pipes, low water pressure, or leaks that keep coming back, give us a call. We'll take a look and tell you what we would do if it was our own house.
