Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
The most significant factors are the scope of work (partial re-pipe vs. full system replacement), material choice (PEX vs. copper), the size and age of the home, and the accessibility of existing plumbing. Replacing drain systems can also add considerable cost.
Yes, new plumbing, especially repiping an older home with PEX or copper, can significantly increase the appraised value by removing a major future expense concern for buyers and improving the condition of major home systems.
It's best to include a contingency in your pricing for unforeseen issues, particularly with older homes. Alternatively, clearly outline in your contract how additional costs will be handled if unexpected problems are discovered during the project.
Yes, major plumbing system upgrades, including re-piping or replacing entire systems, typically require permits and inspections from the local Savannah building authorities. Always verify local requirements before starting a project.
PEX piping is generally more affordable than copper, both in material cost and installation labor. Replacing a whole house with copper will typically place the project at the higher end of the cost spectrum, whereas PEX can contribute to a mid-range project cost.
