[Neighbors] Eroding plumbing

[Matthew Sharp]

Sorry to hear you are dealing with this, Donna. 

We replaced all drain lines via excavation earlier this year. While out of the house, we decided to rerouted hot/cold water supply to prevent future issues. Essentially new plumbing throughout.  BSI Plumbing charged roughly $35k for the project and finished in about 10 days.  Our only complaint was a scratched marble tile, which they repaired. 

New PEX supply lines were run through the attic and dropped down where needed. Sheetrock was cut to access fixtures for new supply lines, so we had around $3k of paint/sheetrock work in addition to plumbing.

I have a tentative quote for $47k to excavate under the foundation to replace the failing pipes under only half my house. I was told three years ago, the quote would have been half that amount.
