Repiping in Mercer Island
In Mercer Island, repiping is usually a partial job — the hot side of a 1960s copper house or the crawlspace runs of a 1980s build — rather than the whole house. We pressure-test and quote the zone that is actually failing.
- Pinhole leak assessment and partial repipes
- Polybutylene (grey pipe) replacement
- Galvanized supply line replacement
- Whole-home copper (Type L) or PEX-A
- Crawlspace and attic runs
- Main water line from meter to house

Permits in Mercer Island
Water heater, sewer, and repipe work needs a plumbing permit from the Mercer Island Development Services. We pull it and schedule the inspection; it is in the flat-rate quote. Repairs and drain cleaning do not need one.
