The price of replacing existing polybutylene piping in a house depends on a few factors:
- Size of the house and more specifically the size and complexity of the actual plumbing—all pipes going from the supply line (utility water intake) to all the different water appliances: faucets, showers, washer and dryer closets, bathrooms, hot water tubs, etc.
- The complexity of the walls behind which the current pipes are; not all current pipes actually get replaced. Many of the current pipes can simply be disconnected and then bypassed with the new plumbing (from a longer-lasting material than polybutylene); this is a great way to reduce repipe cost in many situations.
- The new piping material was used. Some modern options are copper, PEX, PVC (or CPVC).
