Revolutionize Old Homes with Top 5 Plumbing Upgrades
PEX Piping: The Future of Plumbing
Replacing old galvanized or copper pipes with PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) piping can significantly enhance the plumbing infrastructure of an older home. PEX is flexible, resistant to scale and chlorine, and less expensive than copper, making it an ideal choice for retrofits3. Additionally, PEX installations are quicker and less labor-intensive, which can translate to lower labor costs. Homeowners can expect to pay around $1.50 to $3.50 per linear foot, a cost-effective investment for long-term reliability4.
