Replumbing Our Entire 130 Year Old House – This Old Dean House

Our first major project at This Old Dean House was to repipe the entire house. No more cast iron sewer lines and no more galvanized water lines from the street all the way to the fixtures inside. The galvanized water lines are a ticking time bomb. So we are opening up a ton of walls (and ceilings) and getting them all…gone! The cast iron vent pipe that would come crashing down on me one day…gone! The old water heater (that lasted 5 whole minutes at shower time) had to go as well…gone! Every water line was replaced with PEX and every sewer line was dug up and replaced with PVC. I did the demo and the plumbers did the skilled stuff. After two weeks, I feel like the plumbers and I have fought some battle together! And Won!
