Whole-Home Repipe in Pelican Ridge, Newport Beach, CA

Whole-Home Repipe (+ PRV)

Ideal for

• Repeated pinhole leaks or past slab-leak patches

• Low/uneven pressure when showers, laundry, and kitchen run together

• Rusty/discolored water or debris from aging lines

• Homes with additions/casitas or long hillside laterals creating complex branches

• Buyers/sellers wanting clean inspection reports and confidence in hidden systems

What we do/install

• Full domestic water mapping (main house, casita, outdoor showers, hose bibs)

• Replacement of aging copper/galvanized with PEX-A or Type L copper, routed off slab

• PRV testing, replacement & set (targeting 55–65 psi) to tame hillside pressure

• New isolation valves, angle stops, and supply lines at every fixture

• Strategic access with dust containment, floor protection, and labeled piping

• Paint-ready wall/ceiling patches and pressure test documentation at closeout

Why this neighborhood benefits

• Pelican Ridge’s long wings, recirc loops, and elevation changes stress older piping. A designed repipe prevents serial leaks, ends pressure swings, and becomes a marketable upgrade that preserves premium finishes and curb appeal.

Typical timeline

• Typical estates: 3–5 days with evening water restoration where possible

• Larger/multi-wing layouts: 4–7 days, phased to keep living areas usable

Tankless Water Heater & Recirculation

When we recommend it

Bundle with your repipe to eliminate long hot-water waits to view-side suites, outdoor showers, and casitas, and to reclaim garage/mechanical space.

What it includes

• Right-sized tankless (single/paired) for simultaneous luxury use

• Dedicated or crossover recirculation for near-instant hot water at distant fixtures

• Gas sizing, venting, combustion air & condensate brought to code

• Service/flush valves and integration with your new PRV-controlled piping

Why it fits this area

Conditioned, pressure-stable piping plus tankless/recirc delivers quiet, fast, and efficient comfort—perfect for estate living and guest hosting.

Neighborhood Issues We See Most

• High hillside pressure/PRV drift stressing cartridges and braided supplies

• Salt-air corrosion at exposed copper and mixed-metal unions

• Long hot-water runs to wings, casitas, and pool baths → temperature lag

• Legacy patchwork repairs from past leaks creating dead-legs and pressure imbalance

• Aging water heaters working against scale and high pressure

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you get to Pelican Ridge (Newport Coast / Newport Beach 92657) for an emergency leak or flooding?

Pelican Ridge is a same-day neighborhood for us, and if there’s active water we can start 24/7 emergency water extraction right away to protect floors, baseboards, and cabinetry. If the source is plumbing-related, we can dispatch repairs through our 24/7 emergency plumbing service so you’re not coordinating multiple companies.

Can you work with gated access and HOA rules in Pelican Ridge?

Yes. Pelican Ridge projects often need coordinated entry, clean staging, and discreet work practices to keep disruption low. If insurance is involved, we keep everything organized and claim-ready through insurance photos, moisture logs and billing so the process doesn’t stall.

What are the first signs of a slab leak or hot-water loop leak in Pelican Ridge homes?

Warm floor spots on stone/tile, musty baseboards, cupped hardwood, a sudden water-bill jump, or a meter that moves when everything is off are the biggest red flags—especially in homes with long hot-water runs to upstairs suites. We confirm quickly with electronic leak detection and handle the repair cleanly through slab leak repair before moisture migrates under finished floors.

Will you have to tear up stone floors or high-end finishes to fix a leak in Pelican Ridge?

Often no. In gated, high-finish homes, we prioritize “locate first, open last,” and when it’s the better option we recommend reroutes that protect premium flooring instead of chasing the line through slab and tile. Once the source is controlled, we stabilize the structure with slab-leak water damage cleanup and verified structural drying with air movers & dehumidifiers so you’re not left with hidden moisture.

Why does the musty smell come back after a “fan-and-paint” fix in Pelican Ridge?

Because moisture is often still trapped under floors, behind baseboards, or inside wall cavities—areas basic fans don’t truly dry, especially with layered remodel assemblies and tight chases. We stop the repeat-odor cycle with targeted wall cavity dehumidification and, if odor is already present, we add odor removal after water damage so you’re not living with lingering smells.

Does high water pressure cause more leaks in Pelican Ridge, and should I replace the PRV?

It can. Pressure spikes stress braided supplies, valves, cartridges, and older piping—turning small weaknesses into sudden leaks that feel “random,” especially in hillside zones. If pressure is running high or inconsistent, PRV pressure regulator replacement is one of the simplest ways to reduce repeat leak risk and protect the plumbing system long-term.

If I have recurring drain backups in Pelican Ridge, what’s the most reliable fix without tearing up hardscape?

If it keeps returning after a quick clearing, it usually needs full-pipe cleaning and verification—especially on long laterals running under pavers, patios, and landscaped slopes. We typically confirm conditions with a sewer video camera inspection and restore full flow with hydro-jetting. If access is limited or the cleanout is buried/awkward, a cleanout installation can make future service faster and far less disruptive.

Is a tankless water heater with recirculation worth it in Pelican Ridge?

In Pelican Ridge, it’s one of the best comfort upgrades because many homes have long runs to primary baths and guest suites, so you feel the wait time and temperature swings more than in simpler layouts. A properly sized tankless water heater installation paired with a tuned recirculation pump installation delivers faster hot water where you actually use it, and we dial it in with mixing valve commissioning and recirc balancing so temps stay stable.
