Our piping and repiping services protect your home and water supply
Pipes are the lifelines of your home, carrying water where it’s needed and safely removing wastewater. Over time, pipes can corrode, develop leaks, or fail under pressure. Gervais offers piping solutions to keep your home’s plumbing running smoothly.
Whole-home repiping services restore reliable water flow
When your plumbing system is aging or repeatedly failing, full repiping replaces old or damaged pipes with new, durable lines. Whole-home repiping improves water pressure, prevents leaks, and ensures your water flows safely throughout your home.

Galvanized steel pipes typically last 40 to 60 years. Over time they corrode from the inside, which can restrict water flow and affect water quality. Many older homes with galvanized plumbing are due for replacement.
Common signs include low water pressure, discolored or rusty water, frequent leaks, visible corrosion, unusual noises, or recurring plumbing repairs. These often indicate internal deterioration.
PEX is flexible, resistant to corrosion, faster to install, and usually lower cost. Copper is rigid, very durable, heat-resistant, and long proven, but more expensive and prone to corrosion in some water conditions.
Sudden brown water is often caused by rust or sediment in pipes, a disturbed water main, or corrosion inside older plumbing or a failing water heater. If it doesn’t clear after running the tap for a few minutes, it should be checked.
