You now have two basic choices to consider:

  1. you can engage the services of a repiping specialist who will generally take on the responsibility of the complete project employing and supervising all of the plumbing and finishing trades. The engineering and permit process is also the contractors responsibility. Your second choice is neither desirable nor effective.
  2. You take it upon yourself to hire a service plumber, a drywall contractor, a painting contractor, a cleaning crew, and other general labourers as they are needed. You must now be prepared to spend a great deal of time managing and administrating multiple contractors in an attempt to complete the repipe process of your building.

The process of your first choice is as follows: Generally an informational meeting is held with the residents prior to the work taking place. All residents are fully briefed as to how the repiping process works and the effect it will have on each suite. The contractor will give each resident proper written notice of entry or water shutdowns. The entire repiping process takes approximately ten working days to complete in a typical suite including the drywall repairs and painting. The contractor you engage should protect the floors and all areas within the area of work, and the cleaning should be carried out during the entire process. In conclusion, the obvious benefits of hiring a repiping specialist are a more efficient and cost effective project.
