Around here
In Agoura Hills
Repiping comes up in Agoura Hills mostly in Morrison Ranch and Liberty Canyon, where the original copper in the slab has leaked more than once. Old Agoura houses on raised foundations have a crawlspace, so the lines are easy to reach and a repipe there is a cleaner job. Either way, the permit and inspection go through the City of Agoura Hills.
Neighborhoods: Old Agoura, Morrison Ranch, Liberty Canyon, Lake Lindero, Chesebro, Fountainwood.

The job
How it goes
In older houses, galvanized steel rusts shut from the inside, and the water runs brown after sitting overnight. More common here is sixties and seventies copper that's started to pinhole. One pinhole is a repair. Three in two years is a pattern.
Copper is what most of these houses have, and we join it with press fittings, which are faster and cleaner than solder. PEX is flexible tubing from a manifold, one line per fixture. It needs fewer wall openings and doesn't pinhole. Both are permitted and inspected.
A typical house takes two to four days. We work in stages, so the water's back on every evening. Drywall openings are small, and each one is listed on the bid. You stay in the house.

A slab leak under a bedroom closet
It started as a slow shower drain. We traced the copper under the slab and found a leak, and the leak-locating specialist we bring in marked it and the post-tensioned cables. We saw-cut and jackhammered the closet floor, found a pinhole in a one-inch copper line and replaced the section.

Common questions
Repiping in Agoura Hills: things people ask
- How fast can you get to Agoura Hills?
- Often the same day. It's seven minutes down the 101 from Westlake Village.
- Who pulls the permit in Agoura Hills?
- We do, through the City of Agoura Hills, for water heaters, gas lines, repipes and remodels. We handle the inspection.
- Copper or PEX?
- Both work. Copper is what buyers expect. PEX goes in faster with fewer openings and doesn't pinhole. In a slab house, either one runs overhead. We can bid both.
- How long is the water off?
- A few hours at a time, and it's back on every evening.
- Do I need to move out?
- No. It's noisy for a few days and some walls get small openings.
