Slab Repiping and Reroutes in San Juan, PR

Houses built on a concrete slab often have their water lines running under the slab itself. When those lines start leaking, the old answer was to jackhammer the floor. A reroute is usually cleaner.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects San Juan, PR homeowners with plumbers who reroute slab plumbing. The crew abandons the lines in the concrete and runs new PEX through the attic or interior walls, dropping down to each fixture. In attics, the pipe is insulated or kept under the insulation blanket to protect it from heat and freezing.

Warning signs of a failing line under the slab include a warm spot on the floor, the sound of running water with everything off, and cracks or damp spots in flooring. Rerouting one line is a repair. When several have failed, a whole house repiping through the attic is often the better spend.

Flooring and foundation stay intact. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 about slab repiping in your home.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Slab Repiping and Reroutes in San Juan, PR.

Talk to a person
What is the difference between water line replacement and whole house repiping?
Water line replacement covers the buried service pipe from the meter or curb stop to the house. Whole house repiping replaces the supply lines inside the walls. Older homes often need both because the pipes are the same age.
Is PEX or copper better for repiping?
PEX costs less, needs fewer wall openings and does not corrode. Copper handles heat well and lasts in friendly water but can pit in aggressive water. Many homes with past pinhole leaks choose PEX.
How deep is a water service line buried?
It has to sit below the local frost line. That can be 12 inches in warm southern areas and 5 feet or more in the northern states. Your local code sets the exact depth.
Do I need a permit for water line replacement?
Most cities require a plumbing permit for service line replacement and whole house repiping, plus an inspection before the trench is backfilled or walls are closed.
Can slab leaks be fixed without breaking the floor?
Often the lines under the slab are abandoned and new PEX is rerouted through the attic or walls. That leaves the concrete and flooring alone.
