A repipe for a slab home costs more than a home with a raised foundation because a raised foundation has access to a crawl space. Access to a crawl space makes installing repiping in your home much easier. Slab foundation homes often require creating more holes in your walls to run the new piping. This process costs more because it requires more labor from your certified plumber at Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric.

WARNING SIGNS
Signs It Is Time to Have Your Piping System Repiped By Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric
There are some key indicators that your home’s current pipe system needs to be replaced. It is important to note that homes that are 40 years or older are more prone to needing repiping, as natural deterioration and wear and tear are big factors. If your home is 40 years or older, and/or you notice any of the following signs of a failing pipe system, call Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric as soon as possible to schedule a Top Professional Repiping Installation:
Bad Tasting And Smelling Water
When the water in your home begins to have an unfamiliar, poor taste and smell, typically of metallic flavor, your pipes are likely beginning to deteriorate and it’s time to consider replacing them all together.
Noisy Pipes
Banging and creaking noises from your water pipes are also a pretty clear indication that your water pipes are beginning to fail.
Water Temperature Problems
Have you noticed a difficulty trying to find a comfortable temperature when turning on your sink or shower? Oftentimes when pipes are beginning to fail, they will cause the water from your pipes to your faucets to not adjust to your indicated desired temperature correctly.
Corroded Pipes
If you suspect that your water pipes may be needing replacement, perform a visual inspection on them and look for any rusting and corrosion.
Leaking Pipes
Your pipes can begin to leak due to a number of reasons. If the leak is only in one particular area, the issue is likely just with that particular part or area of your pipe.
Water Pressure Issues
Another clear symptom of expired water pipes is inconsistent water pressure. If the water pressure from your faucet or shower begins to decrease over the time in which you are using it, this is usually due to issues with your water pipes.
Water Discoloration
One of the biggest red flags in terms of the health of your water pipes is if your water is coming out of your faucets discolored. If the water from your sinks and showers is reddish in hue, this is likely to corrosion.

What Your St. Louis Neighbors Are Saying
Homeowners across St. Louis, Chesterfield, St. Charles, Ballwin, and beyond trust Academy Air for professional whole-home repiping. Here’s what some of them have to say.
Tom Grace
a month agoI cannot recommend Demetrius Shaw and Academy highly enough. Demetrius came to provide our semi-annual HVAC maintenance. Demetrius was extremely professional, always wore shoe covers inside and took the time to identify issues outside the scope of his assigned tasks. Instead of just identifying them he took the time to explain them, the underlying issues, and to suggest corrective course of action. He provided transparent pricing before starting any work. Fast, honest, efficient and top notch service. Top marks across the board!
Katherine Lavely
2 months agoThe response time was good. They came out within 24 hours. The repair man was awesome. He told me step-by-step of what can occur and how much it would cost. So five stars thank you everyone and thank you for repairman
Samija Halilovic
2 months agoI unfortunately woke up on my birthday to a flooded lower level after our main sewer drain backed up. I called Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric, and even on short notice they had someone out quickly for a very reasonable service call. I received an estimate at 10:42 and an update that our technician, Isaiah, was on his way by 12:08. Isaiah was professional, kind, and got right to work. He quickly diagnosed the issue, cleared the blockage, and thoroughly tested everything afterward by running water and flushing multiple times to make sure the problem was fully resolved. What really stood out was that he didn't just fix the issue and leave, he took the time to explain what caused the backup and gave my husband and me practical maintenance tips to help prevent it from happening again. We really appreciated how knowledgeable, patient, and helpful he was. No one wants to deal with a sewer backup, especially on their birthday, but Isaiah made a stressful situation so much easier. Excellent service from start to finish. Highly recommend!
Bradly Gould
2 months agoGreat experience! Had a loud unit that needed service, I called on a Sunday and they had someone out the next afternoon. John came out and was awesome. He did a detailed assessment and went over all options with their pros and cons. He truly was helping us decide the best option based on our situation and not pressuring us into buying more than we needed. I appreciated his professional opinion without high pressure sales, he was truly on our side. Highly recommend and will continue to use them for maintenance and repairs in the future. Stop looking, this is your company.
Jesse Trousdale
2 months agoGreat experience! Joe Vetter is my hero! It was an easy fix thankfully, but he was so kind and knowledgeable and went above & beyond to explain and educate me on the system & plumbing in my new home. I truly appreciate his help and expertise. Couldn’t have asked for a better technician. Will definitely be sticking with Joe & Academy for future plumbing & HVAC needs!
Larry Petcu
5 months agoClayton did a great job in installing the various components of by home backup system to include backup breaker, Interlock kit, power inlets, charging panel outlet and electrical system grounding. Anthony and David returned to complete the "future" task of the project a few weeks later to add another RV type outlet to the power station charging branch to permit turbo charging. They also added a "Return to Grid Power" sensor to complete the system. They also moved an outside GFCI outlet as I was having a deck extension added to the screen room. Similarly to Clayton's work, Anthony was meticulous, knowledgeable and extremely mindful of minimal disturbance to the home. Anthony also used this complex project to educate and train David, his apprentice, on tasks that he may not have otherwise had the opportunity to encounter. I commend their work and recommend them for similar projects.
Layla Getwell
8 months agoI had a great experience working with Anthony Dietz. He took the time to explain everything in detail, educated me on the issue, and walked me through all of my options without any pressure. I really appreciated how clearly Anthony broke things down so I could make an informed, confident decision about what was best for my situation. It’s refreshing to work with someone who is knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely focused on helping rather than just selling a quick fix. I would absolutely recommend Anthony to anyone looking for an honest and professional electrician. Oh did I mention he was friendly? lol
Sir Fairley
8 months agoThis company is amazing!!! They came out and got the old units uninstalled and had the new ones in with a few hours. Extremely polite and professional. Walked us through how the new units worked and how to set them for optimal efficiency and performance. The two installation techs were a true blessing to me and my family. Thanks again Joe and Ryan for your time and help. And thank you Academy Air for your service.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About Repiping Installation
Why Does A Repipe For A Slab Home Cost More Than A Home With A Raised Foundation?
Why Should I Repipe My House?
You should repipe your house because pipes can rust over time and the rust will break off into your home’s water supply (your tap water will appear a reddish or brown color). In this case, you should have Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric repipe your house because this water color is an indication of old pipes which can eventually lead to leaks, unhealthy water quality, and more.

The price to replace your home’s plumbing can vary a lot depending on if you need partial repiping, or if you need the whole house repiped.

A whole house repiping installation can take anywhere from a few days up to a week.

However, it’s important to note that you won’t necessarily be unable to use your plumbing during that entire time.

Repiping usually takes two days to a week to complete. Your plumber at Academy Air Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric will be able to tell you how long the installation will take, when your water will be shut off, and any other details you need to know regarding your repiping installation.
