The Re-Piping Experts to Call in Katy, TX
Have you ever heard or said the phrase, “They don’t make them like they used to,” before? In many cases, this is quite true. But one thing it doesn’t apply to is the piping that was used in homes built before 1980. Why? Because galvanized piping, convenient as it may have been to install, does not last forever. In fact, its lifespan is about 40 years long—meaning quite a few homes in Katy, Texas need re-piping. Let the local experts at Asmus Homes help! We regularly work with homeowners, investors, and Realtors to swap out old, corroded piping for brand-new PEX piping designed to last much longer.
About PEX Piping
Asmus Homes has plenty of experience with water line replacement, and we’ve determined that PEX piping is the ideal solution for local homes in need of re-piping services. “PEX” is a simpler name for cross-linked polyethylene tubing, which is essentially a plastic that is both dense and flexible. You will often find this material used in new builds as well as re-piping projects because it has so many benefits to offer:
- Complete resistance to corrosion
- High water flow rates
- Fewer failure points that galvanized piping
- The ability to expand during a freeze
- A lead-free piping material
- Easy installation that does not require a torch, chemicals, or other potential hazards
- Affordable material and labor costs
