Modern Plumbing Upgrade

Why Homeowners Choose PEX-A Repiping

Old pipes do not usually fail all at once. They start with low water pressure, rusty water, slab leaks, pinhole leaks, corrosion, and expensive repairs that keep coming back. A whole-home PEX-A repipe replaces the old water lines with a modern piping system designed for long-term reliability.

Better Water Pressure

Old galvanized and corroded pipes restrict flow. A new PEX-A system helps restore clean, consistent water pressure throughout the home.

Fewer Leak Points

PEX-A bends around framing and obstacles, reducing the number of fittings hidden behind walls.

Fast Installation

Most homes can be fully repiped in one day, with water restored before we leave.

Corrosion Resistant

PEX-A does not rust, corrode, or develop the same mineral scale problems that destroy older metal pipes.

Less Wall Damage

Because PEX-A is flexible, it can often be routed with fewer wall openings compared to rigid piping.

Great Value

PEX-A is typically more affordable than a comparable copper repipe while still offering strong long-term performance.

PEX-A is flexible, corrosion-resistant, and ideal for California homes because it can be routed through walls, attics, crawl spaces, and tight areas with fewer fittings than rigid pipe systems.

The Basics

What Is PEX-A?

PEX stands for cross-linked polyethylene. It is a flexible plumbing pipe used for hot and cold water lines in modern residential plumbing. PEX-A is the highest-grade and most flexible type of PEX, making it ideal for whole-home repiping.

We use premium Uponor PEX-A with expansion fittings. Unlike cheaper crimp or clamp systems, the PEX-A expansion system expands around the fitting and tightens as it returns to shape, creating a strong, reliable connection.

Know the Difference

PEX-A vs PEX-B — Why It Matters

Not all PEX is the same. Many homeowners hear "PEX" and assume every system is equal, but PEX-A and PEX-B are different in flexibility, installation method, fittings, and long-term performance.

PEX-A repipe system with expansion fittings

We use PEX-A with expansion fittings for a stronger, cleaner repipe system.

What We Use

PEX-A with Uponor Expansion Fittings

Premium system · More flexible · Fewer fittings

Highest flexibility for cleaner routing
Expansion fittings create a strong connection
Fewer fittings hidden inside walls
Can often be repaired if kinked with heat
Better for tight access areas, attics, slabs, and walls
25-year manufacturer warranty on Uponor material
Ideal for whole-home repipes

PEX-B

Stiffer material · More common in budget installs

More rigid and harder to route
Often requires more fittings behind walls
Commonly installed with crimp or clamp rings
Cannot be repaired the same way if kinked
Often stocked at big-box stores
Meets code, but not the premium system we prefer for full-home repiping
We use PEX-A because we want fewer hidden connections, cleaner routing, and a stronger repipe system for the long run.
Side by Side

PEX Repipe vs Copper Repipe

Both PEX and copper can be good plumbing materials when installed correctly. The right choice depends on your budget, home layout, water conditions, and long-term goals.

FeaturePEX-A RepipeCopper Repipe
CostMore affordableMore expensive
Install TimeFaster, often 1 dayUsually slower
FlexibilityHighly flexibleRigid pipe
Wall OpeningsOften fewer openingsUsually more invasive
CorrosionDoes not rust or corrodeCan corrode over time
Hard WaterHandles hard water wellMore affected by water chemistry
NoiseQuieter, absorbs vibrationCan be louder
LifespanBuilt for decades of useLong lifespan when water conditions are good
Best ForCost-effective modern repipeHomeowners who specifically want copper

For most homeowners looking for the best balance of price, performance, and speed, PEX-A is the most practical whole-home repipe option. Copper is still a premium option, but PEX-A usually gives homeowners a cleaner install at a lower cost.

When Should You Repipe With PEX-A?

A PEX-A repipe is usually recommended when repairs are no longer solving the real problem. If your home has old pipes that keep leaking, losing pressure, or causing water quality issues, replacing the whole system is often more cost-effective than chasing one repair after another.

You have pinhole leaks
You have slab leaks
You have old galvanized pipes
You have rusty or discolored water
Your water pressure is low
You have leaks in multiple areas
Your home has old copper with repeated issues
You are remodeling and want to upgrade plumbing
You want a modern plumbing system before selling or keeping the home long-term
You are tired of paying for temporary pipe repairs
Step by Step

Our PEX-A Repipe Process

1

Free In-Home Estimate

We inspect your current plumbing, water pressure, access points, number of fixtures, and home layout. Then we give you a clear price with no obligation.

2

System Layout and Planning

We plan the new PEX-A routing to minimize wall openings while making sure every fixture is properly supplied.

3

Installation Day

Our crew arrives early and completes the repipe. Most homes are fully repiped in one day, and water is restored before we leave.

4

City Inspection

After the repipe, the city inspector signs off on the installation. We help coordinate the inspection process.

5

Patching and Texture

After inspection, our patching crew repairs the drywall or stucco openings and matches the existing texture.

6

Final Cleanup

We clean the work areas and walk the job with the homeowner so everything is clear.

Drywall patching included after PEX repipe

After inspection, our patching crew repairs and textures the wall openings.

Patching and Texture Included

A repipe is not finished when the pipes are installed. Many companies leave homeowners with open walls or charge extra for patching. At NextLevel Repipe, patching and texture are included after inspection so you do not have to find another contractor.

A whole-home PEX repipe's final price depends on the size of the home, number of bathrooms, number of fixtures, access, attic/crawlspace/slab conditions, and whether additional work is needed.

We believe homeowners should know what is included before work starts. No gimmicks, no surprise patching bill, and no inflated sales commission pricing.

Is PEX Safe for Drinking Water?

Yes. PEX piping is approved for residential plumbing and widely used in homes throughout the United States.

Approved for Potable Water

PEX-A is made for hot and cold drinking water lines.

No Rust or Corrosion

Unlike old metal pipes, PEX does not rust or corrode inside the water line.

Used in Modern Homes

PEX is now a common plumbing material in new construction and whole-home repipes.

Great for California Water Conditions

PEX-A handles hard water better than old metal pipes that can corrode, scale, or develop pinhole leaks.
