PEX Pipe Installation in Norman, OK

Durable PEX Pipe Installation Services in Norman, OK

PEX-A Expansion Fitting Systems in Norman, OK

PEX-A, such as Uponor, uses an expansion tool to stretch the pipe and a ring over the fitting, which then shrinks back into a tight seal. The fittings have a larger inner diameter, so flow restriction is lower. PEX-A is also more flexible and can recover from kinks with a heat gun. It is our favored choice for many full repipes.

Copper to PEX Conversions in Norman

Copper lines can develop pinhole leaks from water chemistry, high velocity and sometimes soil contact under slabs. Much of Oklahoma has moderately hard to very hard water, especially in western areas, which leaves mineral deposits in water heaters and fixtures. Once a home has had several pinhole leaks, more usually follow. Converting to PEX stops the cycle and lowers the risk of hidden water damage. We use approved transition fittings wherever new PEX connects to existing copper stubs or valves.

PEX-A vs. PEX-B Installation in Norman

We offer installation for both PEX-A and PEX-B piping and understand the different advantages of each. PEX-A, often preferred for its flexibility and ability to recover from minor kinks, uses expansion fittings. PEX-B is more rigid but also very durable, typically using crimp or compression fittings. Our plumbers in Norman can help you decide which type of PEX suits your project, considering factors like budget and application.

PEX for Water Line Replacement in Norman

When your main water line from the street to your home needs replacement, PEX is an smart option. Its flexibility allows for easier trenchless or minimal-dig installations, limiting disruption to your yard in Norman. PEX main lines handle ground movement and resist corrosion better than rigid pipe. Soil movement can crack sewer lines and water lines over time, so foundation shifts and plumbing problems often go together.

Remodel and Addition PEX Rough-In in Norman

Kitchen and bathroom remodels are a good time to replace old supply lines with PEX. We rough in new lines to the correct heights for vanities, showers, tubs and appliances, then pressure test before the walls are closed. Additions and guest suites get correctly sized lines tied into your existing system. We coordinate with your contractor to keep the project schedule moving.

Polybutylene Replacement With PEX in Norman, OK

Gray polybutylene pipe was common in homes built from the late 1970s through the mid 1990s and is known for sudden failures. Chlorine in municipal water breaks down the plastic and its fittings over time. Many insurers now ask about polybutylene when writing a policy. Replacing it with PEX removes that risk and can make your home easier to insure and sell.
