What Sets Us Apart on Multi-Family Projects

We've completed hundreds of multi-unit repipes across the Bay Area. Here's what property managers and HOA boards tell us made the difference.

Dedicated Project Manager

Every multi-family project gets a dedicated PM who is your single point of contact from bid to warranty -- available by phone and email throughout the project.

Minimal Tenant Disruption

Our unit-by-unit method limits water outages to 2-4 hours per unit per day. Residents have hot water back before dinner, every day of the project.

Tenant Notice Templates

We provide professionally written resident notification templates -- door notices, email templates, and project schedules -- so your team spends zero time drafting communications.

Insurance Claim Assistance

Replacing pipes due to a leak event or insurance claim? We work directly with adjusters and provide the documentation insurers require for claim approval.

0% Financing for Building Owners

Multi-family repipes are a significant investment. Our 0% APR financing options help property owners manage cash flow without delaying a critical infrastructure upgrade.

30-Year Labor & Materials Warranty

Our 25-year PEX / 30-year copper warranty covers parts and labor on every unit in the building -- a transferable asset that adds real value to your property.

Copper or PEX -- We Install Both

We use only premium materials on multi-family projects -- L-grade American copper and Uponor PEX, the two trusted options for long-term performance in multi-unit buildings.

L-Grade Copper
American-made -- ASTM B88 certified
Time-Tested
50+ year lifespan in typical Bay Area water conditions
Preferred by many HOAs and condo associations
Excellent resale and appraisal recognition
Naturally antimicrobial -- inhibits bacterial growth
Best for: HOAs with copper-required CC&Rs, premium properties, and buildings where resale value and appraisal recognition is a priority.
Uponor PEX-A
NSF-certified -- Uponor ProPEX system
Most Popular
Flexible -- fewer fittings, faster installation per unit
Quieter -- significantly reduces water hammer noise
Freeze-resistant -- critical for exposed areas
Uponor 25-year system warranty + our 30-year labor warranty
Best for: Large projects requiring faster unit turnaround, buildings with water hammer complaints, and owners looking for the lowest total cost of ownership.

Multi-Family Repiping FAQs

Timeline depends on the number of units, building configuration, and pipe material selected. As a general rule, we complete 3-6 units per day for a standard residential building. A 30-unit complex typically takes 2-3 weeks. We'll provide a detailed day-by-day project schedule in your bid.
Each unit experiences a 2-4 hour water outage on the day its unit is repiped. We schedule outages during daytime hours (typically 9am-1pm) and restore water before the end of the workday. The rest of the building maintains full water service while individual units are being worked on.
Yes -- we handle all permits and coordinate every city inspection as a standard part of every multi-family project. You'll receive full documentation of permitted and inspected work for each unit, which is important for insurance, refinancing, and future property sales.
We provide professionally written tenant notification templates -- including door-hanger notices, email templates, and FAQ sheets -- that your management team can send under your brand. We also work with your management office to coordinate access scheduling and answer resident questions throughout the project.
Yes -- we have extensive experience working with insurance claims on multi-family properties. We provide detailed scope of work documentation, material specifications, and photographic documentation of existing conditions and completed work in the format most insurers require. We can work directly with your adjuster throughout the process.
Both are excellent long-term choices. Copper is preferred for HOAs with copper-required CC&Rs and premium properties where appraisal recognition matters. Uponor PEX-A is the most popular choice for large apartment projects due to faster installation, quieter operation, and lower total project cost. We'll make a recommendation based on your building type, HOA requirements, and budget during the assessment.

Why repipe-only crews matter for multi-family

Multi-family repipes are won or lost on speed, schedule discipline, and tenant communication. Here's why a dedicated repipe crew finishes faster, prices tighter, and warranties longer than a general-plumbing contractor.

SPEED

9 - 14 days, not 4 - 6 weeks

A specialist crew can finish a 24-unit building in 9 - 14 days. General plumbing crews context-switching between service calls and new construction typically need 4 - 6 weeks for the same project. The schedule is the cost.

COST

Fixed-price bids, not T&M

Because our crews don't move between job types, there's no idle time, no scope drift, and no surprise change orders. That lower overhead lands directly in your bid as a fixed price. You know the total before the first wall is cut.

QUALITY

up to 30-year workmanship warranty

Repipe Champions carries a up to 30-year warranty on every multi-family repipe -- transferable to new owners and HOA boards. We can offer that because every crew member does this work every day, on every job.

COMMS

One PM, one schedule, zero handoffs

You get a single project manager who owns the schedule, tenant notices, inspector coordination, and daily property-manager check-ins. No subcontractor handoffs. No "the other crew was supposed to handle that."

Protocol for quiet hours, dust, and tenant communication

Multi-family repiping happens inside occupied units, on a tight schedule, with elderly residents, sleeping infants, work-from-home tenants, and pets all in play. Our protocol is built around that reality:

  • Daily install window 8 AM - 5 PM. No early-morning loud work, no late-evening drilling. Crews arrive, set up, and clean out within that window every day.
  • Plastic-sheet dust containment in every unit. Floor-to-ceiling poly barriers around active work zones. HEPA vacuum sweep at the end of each unit before keys are returned to the manager.
  • Pre-install notification cards delivered 7 days ahead. Each tenant receives a printed door-hanger and a property-manager email with their exact unit date, water-off window, and emergency contact.
  • Per-unit completion notice. When a unit is finished, the property manager receives a same-day photo log and a unit-complete confirmation.
  • Weekly tenant-feedback survey on projects longer than 2 weeks. A short anonymous form goes to all impacted tenants every Friday so issues surface fast.
  • California Civil Code §1954 compliance. All entry notices satisfy the 24-hour written-notice requirement for non-emergency landlord entry, and we provide the property manager with templated notices for their records.
