The situation

Signs your Portland home needs a repipe

Weak pressure at multiple fixtures — galvanized corrosion narrowing your pipes from the inside out

Rusty or discolored water, especially first thing in the morning

Recurring pinhole leaks that keep coming back in different spots

Gray polybutylene (Quest or Poly-B) pipe that your insurer is flagging or won't cover

Low pressure throughout the whole house, not just one fixture

A repipe replaces all the supply lines in your home — every run from the main shutoff to every fixture — with new PEX or copper. Here is exactly what that involves and how we keep your household running while we work.

Whole-home inspection with a written scope listing every fixture before we quote anything

PEX repiping with minimal wall penetration — we plan routes to reduce access cuts

Access holes patched, primed, and ready for paint before we leave

City of Portland permit pulled, rough-in inspected, final permit closed

Most Portland single-family homes finished in 2–3 days, water on every night

Why us

Why Portland Homeowners Choose bluefrog

SE Portland, independently owned

Morgan founded and runs bluefrog from SE Portland. The business is woman-owned and LGBTQ-owned — a team that reflects the city we serve. When you call, you reach a local shop whose owner oversees every project, not a national dispatch center routing you to whoever's available.

Flat-rate pricing, in writing

We price by the job, not by the hour. You see a written estimate after diagnosis and before we touch anything — no overtime charges, no surprises. The number on the estimate is the number on the invoice.

Fully licensed, permits handled

Every technician works under Oregon CCB #255748. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and close it out — you don't have to coordinate anything. The work meets Oregon code and gives your home a clean paper trail.

Bradford White listed contractor

We're listed on the Bradford White contractor finder, which means equipment from a manufacturer we know well. Your warranty stays intact the way it was written — not voided by an unlisted installer.

We had Bluefrog install a new water heater in our cellar which is accessible via a very steep and rickety stairway. They managed to get the old heater out and new one in with care. Separately, they connected our new washer and dryer to the water supply and…

I have used many plumbers for my rentals in the past 30 years. BlueFrog Plumbing beats them all. They are efficient, courteous, prompt, very reasonable, and negotiable. Would highly recommend them. Check them out before you hire any other plumber.

Questions, answered

Common Questions About Whole House Repiping in Portland

How much does a whole house repipe cost in Portland?

Cost varies by home size, number of fixtures, pipe material, and how much of the layout requires new access cuts. After a whole-home walkthrough, we give you a written estimate that lists every fixture individually so you know exactly what's included. There's no charge for the estimate.

How long does a whole house repipe take?

Most Portland single-family homes take 2–3 days. We restore water each evening so you're not without it overnight. Larger homes or those with complex layouts may run a day longer — we'll give you a specific timeline after the walkthrough.

PEX or copper — which is right for my Portland home?

We use PEX-A for most Portland homes. It's flexible enough to route around obstacles with fewer joints, handles freeze-thaw cycles well — relevant here when temperatures dip below freezing — and comes with a 25-year warranty. Fewer joints mean fewer future leak points. Copper is available if you prefer it or if a specific code situation calls for it, but PEX is the right call for the vast majority of Portland repiping jobs.

Do I need a permit for repiping in Portland?

Yes. Oregon requires a permit for whole-house repiping, and the rough-in must pass a city inspection before walls close. We handle the permit application, schedule the inspection, and close out the permit — you don't need to coordinate anything with the city. The final permit gives your home a clean paper trail, which matters when you sell.

How much wall damage should I expect?

Less than most homeowners expect. PEX is flexible, so we can fish it through walls with smaller access holes than rigid copper requires. We plan our routes before cutting to minimize the number of openings. Where we do need to open a wall, we patch and prime before we leave — ready for a coat of paint.
