The pipes running through your home are the arteries of your plumbing system, carrying fresh water in and waste water out every single day. Over time, pipes can corrode, develop leaks, accumulate mineral deposits, and eventually fail. When pipe problems arise, Roundrock Plumbing Co provides expert pipe repair and repiping services throughout Round Rock, using modern materials and proven techniques that restore your plumbing system to optimal performance.
Many homes in the Round Rock area were built with galvanized steel pipes, which have a typical lifespan of 40-50 years and are prone to internal corrosion that causes low water pressure, rusty water, and eventually leaks. Other homes may have polybutylene pipes (manufactured from the 1970s-1990s) which are known to fail prematurely. If your home has these materials, proactive repiping with modern copper or PEX piping can prevent future emergencies and significantly improve your water quality and pressure.
Whether you need a single pipe section repaired, a specific area repiped, or a complete whole-house repipe, our licensed plumbers evaluate your system, explain your options clearly, and perform the work with minimal disruption to your daily life. We specialize in both copper and PEX piping systems and can recommend the best material for your specific situation, budget, and goals.

Why Hire a Professional for Pipe Repair?
Pipe repair and especially repiping is complex work that requires a thorough understanding of plumbing system design, pipe sizing calculations, proper support and anchoring, soldering or connection techniques, and building code requirements. In Texas, repiping work requires licensed plumbers and typically needs a permit and inspection.
A professional repipe also involves strategic planning to minimize wall and ceiling openings, proper insulation of hot water lines, correct pipe routing for efficient pressure and flow, and coordination of water shutoffs to minimize inconvenience. Our experienced plumbers have completed hundreds of repipe projects and know how to complete the job efficiently while keeping your home clean and your water downtime to a minimum.
DIY vs. Professional Pipe Repair
Some simple tasks are suitable for DIY, but most plumbing jobs benefit from professional tools, training, and code knowledge. Consider the following comparison:
| Factor | DIY Approach | Professional Service |
|---|---|---|
| Single Repair | Possible for exposed, accessible pipes | Professional repair with proper materials |
| Behind Walls | Requires opening walls, complex routing | Expert access with minimal damage |
| Whole-House Repipe | Extremely complex, not recommended | Systematic, code-compliant installation |
| Material Selection | May choose wrong pipe type or size | Proper sizing and material for your system |
| Code & Permits | May not meet code requirements | Fully permitted and inspected |
| Water Quality | Cannot properly flush and test system | Complete system flush and water quality verification |

A little prevention goes a long way in avoiding expensive plumbing repairs. Follow these tips from our experienced plumbers:
- Monitor water pressure regularly — sudden drops may indicate a developing leak or corroding pipes
- Watch for signs of corrosion on visible pipes, especially at joints and connections
- If you have hard water, consider a water softener to reduce mineral buildup inside pipes
- Maintain consistent home heating in winter to prevent pipe freezing, especially in exterior walls
- Don't use chemical drain cleaners — they can corrode pipes from the inside over time
- Have your water tested if you notice changes in taste, color, or odor — this may indicate pipe deterioration
- If your home is over 40 years old, schedule a plumbing inspection to assess pipe condition and remaining lifespan
