Why You Should Consider Replacing Your Plumbing Lines During A Remodel
Remodeling your home’s kitchen or bathrooms can be quite the task to accomplish, and you probably want to get it over and done with as quickly as you can. While we’re right there with you, one of the best things you can do during a renovation is replace your older plumbing lines so you can kill two birds with one stone. Here are some reasons to back it up:
- Your piping is already near the end of its rope.
- Frees up design choices
- Saves time and money.
If your piping has reached a certain age and you need to replace it in the next couple of years anyway, making such a change while the piping is still exposed is the better option. Replacing the plumbing line at this point in the process will allow you to get rid of your outdated plumbing a little earlier than you might expect, but at a time that is much more convenient.
Planning a remodel with your existing plumbing lines can restrict you because you have no choice but to work around them! If you choose to replace your piping system during a renovation, you’re free to make whatever design choices you would like without being constrained by the room’s current footprint.
Making the choice to swap out your older existing system while you’re already renovating your kitchen or bathrooms will save you a great deal of time down the line. Since your plumbing is already exposed throughout the remodel, you won’t have to go to the trouble of opening up the same areas again in a few years and disturbing your newly renovated areas. Not to mention, you’ll save the money you would inevitably have had to spend later on to access your piping system again.
By replacing your plumbing lines during a remodel in your home, you’re ultimately getting a tough job done in a more convenient manner. Not only do you have easier access to your piping, you have more freedom with your design while simultaneously saving time and money. While it may seem daunting to do all of this at once, you’ll have peace of mind knowing that your brand new remodeled area is pristine inside and out.
