Repipe Specialists - Los Angeles

Jamilleh E.

My experience with the salesman and workers was seamless
John spent a good 2 hours explaining their procedures and
the 8 workers that were in my 3 level home were great gentlemen
very respectful of a single woman at home and cleaned up with
care. The 2nd crew who patched all the holes and textured the
walls did an equally great job with respect and a sure Ma'am with
a smile attitude. I would recommend this company over the many
others my neighbors used. They re-piped my water heater hose
to where it flushes out into the driveway in the future and not in the
garage where it is located

Repiping your home seems like a daunting and scary effort. We had a plumber recommend that we contact Repipe Specialists and get a quote. John Oscarson came out to spend some real time going through the options and plotting the best way for minimal inconvenience. We took months of considering options, putting it off, and worrying about the potential disruption. We read the reviews and they seemed so-so and confusing between individuals that really didn't seem to know what they were getting into, and potential red flags.

So, I told myself I would leave a real, honest and relatable review after our process was done and a few months had gone by. Today is the day!

In the end: We couldn't have been happier with the process. Repipe Specialists has their local crews that execute the work, and for us, it was G&W Plumbing. We went with PEX and have a 4 bed 3 bath house of around 3000 sq ft. It took 1 day for the repipe process itself and 1 day for the drywall/stucco patching. Everyone was respectful, professional, and they did a great job of taping things off and cleaning up after the process. We had the holes in the wall for about 3 days and then the drywall team came in and finished up. Again, they did a fantastic job of cleaning up after themselves and even matching our drywall and stucco texture. It was really good! All we had to do was paint, and our flat walls looked so good that we didn't even bother (our walls are already white and the drywall matched).

I look at the complaints that other people have here on Yelp that freaked me out, so now that I've been through it, I think I should address it for anyone else reading:

First, you're repiping your house - holes have to be made everywhere and I think they do a great job of minimizing them and cleaning up. When the drywallers come in, they fix it all for you and it's going to look like it did at the beginning.

Second, they will take out as much copper as they can from your house. If they re-route the line, they may leave some in there and cap it off to prevent having to take down more walls. I see complaints about this but it makes total sense.

Third, if you really want something out or something different, just tell them. They will do it. We were adding a hose bib during the install and wished we could have a different handle... the foreman ask us what we wanted, and said he'd happily install it if we brought him what we wanted. We did it and are super happy now.

Finally, Repipe Specialists was the best value of the 3 competitive quotes we got. As I found out during the process, this is all that these crews do - repipe houses. They know how to find stuff and get the job done efficiently as they literally do repipes every single day. There were so many things that I thought would be super difficult that they navigated with ease.

In the end, they did a great job and the house was fully functional and clean at the end of the process. I now have the confidence to go on vacation without coming back for a mess. I think these guys know what they are doing, doing a good job, and best of all, no surprises!

Fast service. Great cleanup. They knew what to do and how to do it with minimal disruption to our walls, etc. This was much less intrustive than I ever expected! Very professional. Would highly recommend!

We experienced a pinhole leak in a copper pipe in our condo. We knew from talking with neighbors that it was only a matter of time since others had the same experience with the cheap copper piping that was used when the complex was built 42 years ago. I called Repipe Specialist after learning they were the leading company for repiping in SoCal. John came out quickly, explained the process in great detail, and gave us a firm quote. The work was scheduled within a week and the crew completed the repiping in one day. The patching and priming (including texture matching) was done in a day. Both crews were professional and efficient, and the PEX is much quieter than copper piping! We can't recommend Repipe Specialists enough!

Repipe specialist was great! They finished the job in one day and were very professional, efficient, and answered all questions I had. They even went the extra mile and followed up on a loose wire that was of concern. I highly recommend them! You will be happy with the job they do. Alfredo and his team were top notch. ?

These people were very polite and profession. They came in and did the job in one day as they stated. I would recommend this company to anyone needing repiping. They did an outstanding job and went above and beyond what needed to be done. I had no internet access and the contract was even driven out to where I was renting for me to sign. Thanks Sandy

Happy from beginning to the completion of my ho.e repiping. Very professional work.

If I could give this company ZERO stars, I would.
These guys supposedly ""repiped"" my house with PEX in Long Beach, but then I found out that they had cut water to my bar sink, they didn't repipe the toilet pipes, they left a hole in my shower where the handle is because they broke too much tile.
I tried to reason with them and explain the bad job they had done, but they refused to repair anything and said they were done and took my money.
Please walk with them at every single point where the repipe is supposed to be done ie, sinks, showers toilets, etc. because they do not stand behind their work once you pay them.
Beware, they behaved like scheisters! Don't pay them until you are sure they have done the job!

Our house is 100 years old this year and I figured I'd get the original water pipes replaced for its birthday. Repipe Specialists did not disappoint. The crew came in and repiped the entire house in 5 hours. If I hadn't seen them cleaning up or noticed the holes in the walls, you'd never know that they were here. Two wall plasterers arrived promptly the next day and were finished patching the walls in 4 hours. I guess the original pipes were full of corrosion, because now the hot water gets to the shower in record speed in the new insulated PEX pipes. We hired a painter the following week to paint the entire bedroom after the shared wall with the bathroom was patched. My only complaint is about the project is related to the bathroom and kitchen/laundry painting crew (i.e., me and my husband); those guys are way to lazy to paint in a timely fashion. I would totally rehire Repipe Specialists again if we ever live in another house that needs new pipes. These should last until well after we are dead and gone.

We had aging PVC pipelines that are brittle and prone to easy cracking/fractionating. I extensively shopped around and read reviews. Ultimately my neighbor handed me a contact to repipe specialty. The quote and level of details did not disappoint.

Clear and concise communication. Very responsive. Reliable.

The entire project was lightning fast and work was extremely clean. Workers were in sync and had the pipe installed and water back up in less than a day. Patching was done in half a day.

I'm very satisfied with the work, product, and price. More importantly you have folks that listens to their customers. Thank you repipe specialist team.
