Repipe Specialists, Inc

My wife and I are very happy that we chose Repipe Specialists for the job. We did a lot of research before we narrowed it down to two competitors. Repipe came to our home to give us a quote and the salesman was very friendly and educated us about all of the discounts available to us. In addition, the transferable lifetime warranty on both the craftsmanship and materials is what finally sold us. Some companies have tricky warranties but not Repipe Specialists!
We highly recommend them and you won’t be disappointed.

Repipe Specialists did an excellent job repiping my house. They arrived when they stated they would and respected our house as if it was theirs. They covered the floors and everything within the area they were working prior to conducting any work. After they were finished, I noticed a few items that I wanted changed/​improved. I spoke with the foreman that was assigned to my job and within hours everything was fixed. Repipe Specialists were easy to work with and did the job they were contracted to complete. I would recommend their service to friends and family!

When I needed to repipe my house I got estimates from four companies. Repipe Specialists were the most professional and had the lowest price.
The repipe was done in one day!!! Then inspection, then patch up and texture. The entire project took 3 days! I would highly recommend them to neighbors and friends. It was a great experience.

The crew that came to repipe my house all knew what they were suppose to do. At first, I really didn’t believe that they will finish the project in one day, but they did. I felt sad about the openings they had to do to the walls, but after the patch and texture team came and did their work, and after painting, it looked like nothing happened to the walls. I do not wish a pin hole leak on anybody, but if you ever need a repipe, I highly recommend this company.

Repipe Specialists did a great job repiping my home in Casta del Sol in Mission Viejo, CA. I have referred them numerous times as they are professional, trustworthy, and reasonably priced. They finished my home on schedule and I have had zero problems.

We had Repipe Specialists come to our home over a year ago. We had a slab leak. My wife and I decided on a complete repiping due to slab leaks that occured every two-​three years.
They sent their salesperson who went over our options. He was very thorough and explained all our options. We agreed on the materials to use and we agreed on the price.
They showed up on the appointed day/​time with 6 or more plumbers. Each one went to a specific location in the home and we were amazed on the speed of their work. Another plumber quoted more money and one week of time. Repipe specialists were done 12 hours later. One day to completely repipe our huge home was amazing. The workers were courteous and neat.
4 days later 2 drywall specialists showed up as promised and after working two full days, the drywall was superbly done. I then painted the drywall and no one can see where the walls were cut.
I highly recommend thse professionals for your home. You won’t be sorry. Fast, reasonable and clean.

The Repipe Specialist team are awesome. Very professional, quick and clean. I’m so happy with their work!!! Their patchwork was amazing. Their prices are very affordable to. Anyone
who wants their entire home repipe, I highly recommend them. Thanks guys.

My boyfriend’s mom used their services and I am helping her write a review since she doesn’t have Unilocal :)
She thought they were great to work with, professional, and did a good job with her re-​piping. The reason for the 4 stars is that they missed a fountain that was also supposed to be re-​piped. However, they did quickly return to fix that mistake.

Rafael and his crew did a great job in our whole house repipe. They were very professional and courteous. Very happy with their work

I repipe the whole house (about 3500 sq ft) in Newport Beach, CA to PEX due to the pinhole leak on the original copper pipe. The total cost was about $ 8,000.
Super professional and efficient !!!
Started with the salesperson, Rafael Gonzalez, who knew the business well and was very honest. He explained to me in great details of how/​what/​where/​when to do the job. Their price was very reasonable
The project manager went through every details with me before started the work. They minimized the «damage» and made the «recovery» easier afterward.
The preparation were done thoroughly, plastic sheets covered all the areas
The «PEX» pipes were heavy gauge material
The workmanship, particularly all the joints, were inspected and approved by city permitting inspector
Wall patching and re-​texturing were good
Thy are efficient — a large team of about 10 on the job, they finished the prep/​cutting/​repiping in a day. After the city inspection, they took another day to patch up the drywall and re-​texture. Whole job was completed in three days.
The only concern is that the final clean-​up work is not perfect. They left some debris and dust behind.

Repipe specialist did a great job in the house. I got competitive bids vs the neighbors preferred repipe company and repipe specialist had a lower bid, much better presentation and clear information of the process, time and expectations. The job was performed on time and they even stayed extra time the second day to finish all the patch and texture work. I have recommended Repipe Specialist over others as they met my expectations at a very competitive price.

Last October, after contacting several other companies doing repiping, I contacted Repipe Specialists, Inc. I selected them because they had the best price and could start work in a few days. We had been experiencing foul tasting water for a while. The galvanized pipes originally installed in my house were rusty on the inside. That and the sediment in the water convinced me it was time to repipe. The crew arrived early in the morning and by a little after 2 PM we had new pipes. I had them return the next day to replace the drain pipes as well. The water now tastes great and the drains work well. I couldn’t be happier.
Thank you, Repipe.

Rafael & Repipe Specialist did a superb job with our whole house repipe. We contacted around 4 companies for quotes and I’m glad we chose the right company. They are like a factory assembly line when the work started. Six or more guys showed up (3 or 4 trucks), covered our carpet & personal stuff, sealed off rooms with plastic, and completed the repipe in a less than a day! Amazing! The whole process (city permits, drywall repair) took 3.5 days. Drywall repair took a day and a half. Can’t even tell that our home had a hundred holes. The repairs were perfectly done.
We totally underestimated the severity of the construction. It’s pretty crazy. Prepare yourself well if you decide to repipe. 25 yr old dust from inside the walls all come out. Lots of cleaning. 100% relieved that we got it done.

We had our pipes redone about a year ago and couldn’t be happier with the work Repipe Specialists did. The sales rep was super helpful, gave me options (I chose Pex because it’s awesome!) and helped us get financing for it. Our pressure’s better and the overall quality of the water is better. We saw our old pipes and the decades of sludge our water had to pass through when it could to get to us — we showered in that! Anyway, They had to break walls but they were all repaired like new and although we had one little issue afterward, they came right out and took care of it quickly. A year later, we’re still very happy.

We are very happy we chose to go with Repipe Specialists. From the initial visit from Rafael, to the actual piping crew, to the drywall guys, we are very pleased! We had gotten 3 bids and Repipe had the most professional bid and explanation about the work that would be performed. Their price was also very fair. They told us what to expect, we scheduled it the following week, and the whole thing start to finish was 3 days just like they said. The first day was the piping, Day 2 was the Inspector (passed no problem!) and beginning drywall, and Day 3 was finishing the drywall. We were worried about the mess and the after-​effect, and were thrilled with how good everything turned out. The piping crew cleaned up after all their work, and same with the drywall guys. They protected our wood floors, and furniture. The patching was also really good and after the paint (we do that ourselves) you can’t even see where they made holes (and there were a LOT). Overall I would highly recommend them.

We had a slab leak and were faced with the option of rerouting the line or performing a repipe, which we decided to do given our home is almost 30 years old. After doing my research (Angie’s List, BBB, Unilocal, and the many testimonials on the website) I decided to call Repipe Specialists and I’m sure glad I did. I have to say that this was one time where my actual experience was completely consistent with everything I had read. Beginning with the free estimate by John (who was amazing) and through the actual work and drywall repair, I am still in disbelief as to how such a major home repair could be performed so flawlessly. Job was completed within three days from start to finish, and the icing on the cake was the visit from the City Inspector who said, and I quote: «This is the nicest and cleanest repipe I have ever seen.»
Our repipe was surprisingly affordable, and the lifetime warranty is transferable to the new owners should we ever decide to sell our home. So believe the reviews, believe the testimonials, and believe the ratings, Repipe Specialists truly turned a very stressful situation into the most impressive home repair experience we’ve ever had.

I had to have my rental house in RSM re-​piped late last year after experiencing a pretty severe slab leak (following numerous smaller pinhole leaks over the years; not unusual for south county homes built in the early 2000’s). I called out 4 companies to provide bids. All the companies were about the same in price; I think they all use the same estimation method. I chose Repipe Specialists because Rafael provided me with the most comprehensive information about the Pex product and the process and gave me a sense of confidence about the company. He carries around samples of old copper, new copper, and Pex pipes in his trunk that he will show you.
Rafael was able to get my house scheduled for the re-​pipe on the next Saturday (at my request). The crew of 4 – 5 guys arrived around 7:30am and finished the re-​pipe and restored water flow by around 4:30pm. The holes in the walls remained open until Tuesday when the city inspector came out and signed off on the work. The sheetrock crew started their work on Wednesday and finished up on Friday morning. The process was really smooth; these guys have it dialed in.
The quality of workmanship on the plumbing was great. The quality of workmanship on the sheetrock left a little to be desired. I had to request they re-​do a number of areas before I signed off. They seemed somewhat annoyed by this.
Overall, I’m giving them a 4 star rating, the only deduct being for the sheetrock work (had the quality of work been better, the third day would not have been necessary). I’ve posted a couple of photos so you can see what it looks like while in process.
I highly recommend Repipe Specialists.

Repipe Specialist did an amazing job on our repiping construction. We previously called other companies and after many searches they were the best. Always on time and finished on time! Very clean and professional.

I was very pleased with the quality of work done at my home. They worked fast, did exactly what I asked, informed me of their progress, and cleaned up the job site at a very reasonable price. I no longer have to worry about a leak or flood ever again!
Thanks again team!

Repipe Specialists (RPS) should pay their estimator, Mike, seven figures a year. He’s a great salesman. Too bad the quality of the work doesn’t live up to his charismatic sales pitch.
During the sales pitch, Mike showed us a binder with pictures of what to expect from RPS. Here’s what he represented, followed by the reality.
1. RPS would deburr the ends of every single piece copper tubing. I had my contractor there the entire day. He saw no deburring equipment used on any copper pipe. There was no deburring equipment on their trucks or on-​site.
2. RPS would install isolators under the house where the new copper pipe would come into contact with the floor joists and where the pipes come through the floor. None were installed.
3. RPS would install flush mount hot and cold water knobs at the washing machine connection. Mike even showed us a picture of how they would look in his binder. None were installed, and when discussed with the crew that showed up, they’ve never heard or seen anything like that before.
4. A supervisor would show up at the conclusion of the job to inspect the work performed by the crew. No one showed up.
Now, the installation problems:
Steve, the crew supervisor from the subcontracted company Miranda Plumbing, complained that our main line from the meter was PVC and he didn’t think he would be able to connect it to copper. The contract with the inspection sheet states that the main is PVC. Why is that a problem now? Somehow he managed to do it.
They installed the PRV drain pipe from the water heater into a lower cabinet and not under the house. My husband had to demand they replace the pipe to vent properly.
They attached the new water lines to our hot water heater onto the side of a wooden pantry cabinet using 1−½″ dry wall screws going through 3/​8″ plywood directly into the pantry. My contractor pointed this out to Steve, who told him «that’s how we do it. Check your contract.» My contractor did check the contract, and the contract stated that the water lines would be mounted INSIDE the wall. He showed Steve the contract, who chose to ignore him. When my husband saw this, he confronted the Steve who told him to «check your contract.» My husband showed him the contract again and insisted that he call Mike. Mike told my husband he didn’t MEAN to quote us on lines installed INSIDE the wall; normally they install them ON the wall. Hello? They didn’t install them on a wall, they installed them onto the side of our wooden pantry cabinet (hint: it’s NOT a wall).
They finally agreed to send a crew back on Saturday to install the lines per the terms of the contract. Steve told his crew that he would «charge back Mike for that mistake.»
Under the bathroom sink, they stuffed paper towels between the pipe and the floor joists for insulation. My husband replaced it himself with the proper insulation.
The supervisor, Steve, tried to short cut everything. He relocated an exterior hose bib to save himself about 12 feet of copper pipe to the original location without our permission. My husband let it pass because there were already so many issues wrong with their work. They installed one hose bib with smaller tubing than the other bibs. The hose bib installed at the front porch pointed directly to the steps. The hose couldn’t have been installed on the bib without the hose lying across the front porch. My husband had to demand that they install it properly, with Steve insisting again, «that’s how we do it.» The regulator system installed at the main is huge and spider web like.
I hate the bait and switch tactics that RPS uses. The crew did not perform as represented during the presentation. I would suggest that you ask to make copies of anything in that binder that the salesman brings to show you, because no one seems to remember it after you sign the contract.
Find someone else to do your repiping. Save yourself a headache.
