Over time, your home’s plumbing ages, just like your roof or HVAC system. Pipes corrode, leak, clog, and lose efficiency, especially in older homes built with galvanized steel or outdated materials. Deteriorating water pipes can make your life stressful and put your home at risk for water damage.
The appropriate plumbing fix may involve a simple repair or a single pipe replacement. However, a plumbing system with extensive damage or many outdated, deteriorating pipes can be a good candidate for whole-house repiping. If we recommend whole-house repiping, we will explain the project’s scope, completion time, and cost.
Repiping your home can help you regain peace of mind and reliable plumbing. Our qualified pros at Ongaro & Sons are experienced in whole-house repiping, select pipe replacement, and pipe repairs. We offer flexible financing packages (subject to approved credit) to help you complete the plumbing upgrades your home needs.

When Should You Repipe Your Home?
Repiping may sound like a big job—but sometimes, it’s the most cost-effective and long-term solution to serious plumbing problems. Consider repiping if:
- You experience frequent pipe leaks or water damage.
- Your home has galvanized steel, lead, or polybutylene piping.
- Water pressure is consistently low.
- Water has a metallic taste, discoloration, or rust particles.
- Plumbing repairs are becoming more frequent and expensive.
- Your home is over 40 years old and has never been repiped.

We’ll assess your system and help you determine whether partial or complete repiping is right for your situation.

What Is Involved in Repiping?
Repiping is a comprehensive process that replaces aging, corroded, or damaged plumbing with new, long-lasting materials—most commonly PEX or copper. This upgrade can significantly improve your water pressure, water quality, and the overall efficiency of your home’s plumbing system.
At Ongaro & Sons, we take a tailored approach to every repiping project. Depending on your home’s construction, plumbing layout, and specific needs, we’ll recommend the best solution—whether it’s partial repiping, a complete system overhaul, or pipe rerouting. Our trained technicians work with care to minimize disruption to your walls, flooring, and fixtures. Protective coverings and clean job sites are standard features of our service.
Trenchless Pipe Bursting for Underground Lines
For water or gas lines running under your yard, driveway, or foundation, we may recommend trenchless pipe bursting—a modern repiping technique that replaces underground piping without the need for extensive digging.
Using specialized equipment, we break apart the old pipe while simultaneously pulling a new pipe into place. This trenchless solution is ideal to avoid the mess and cost of excavation while still upgrading to durable, code-compliant materials.
Our trenchless pipe bursting service is fast and efficient and preserves your landscaping—another reason Ongaro & Sons is the trusted name for repiping across Northern California.
