Rusty water at the tap, pressure that fizzles out mid-shower, and leaks that keep cropping up in new spots are all your home's way of telling you the pipes have had enough. Empire Plumbing Solutions steps in with honest repiping and water line services in and around Riverside, CA, swapping out that worn-out plumbing so you can quit patching the same problems over and over. We take a good look at what's going on behind your walls, explain it in plain terms, and lay out the best path forward for your home and your budget.
Headquartered in Riverside, CA, Empire Plumbing Solutions is a local plumbing company serving homeowners and commercial property owners. Our team focuses on replacing tired, failing pipes and restoring the water lines that feed your home, using copper and cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) to suit your situation. With more than 30 years of hands-on experience, we bring the skill and straight talk that turn a big job like repiping into something far less stressful.
The problem tends to build up slowly, so a lot of people don't clock it until several signs pile up at once. Water comes out tinted brown or orange, the pressure drops to a trickle, a leak springs up in one spot right after you fixed another, and your water bill creeps higher for no clear reason. Once you're dealing with all of that, the pipes themselves are usually the root of it, not any single fitting.
What's behind it comes down to age and the material running through your walls. Older homes were often plumbed with galvanized steel that rusts from the inside out, slowly choking off flow and tinting the water. Copper holds up longer but still develops pinhole leaks over the decades, and constant water pressure plus shifting soil only speed up the wear. By the time corrosion has spread through the system, chasing one leak at a time becomes a losing game, which is where repiping a house starts to make real sense.
Here's how we tackle it. One of our licensed plumbers walks the property, checks the condition of the lines, and determines whether you're looking at a targeted fix or a whole-house repiping. From there, our plumbers map out the run, protect your floors and walls, and replace the old pipe with fresh copper or PEX, keeping the openings we make as small as we can. When the trouble reaches the line coming in from the street, we handle that water service line repair too, so clean water flows freely from the meter all the way to your fixtures. Every step gets explained ahead of time, so you always know what's happening and why.
The result is a plumbing system you can stop worrying about. Water runs clear, pressure comes back strong, and the endless cycle of leaks and repairs finally settles down. Trusting the job to our seasoned plumbing contractors means the new pipes are put in right the first time, giving your home reliable water for decades and adding a little value while they're at it.
From a single failing line to a full-home overhaul, here's a look at how we bring your plumbing back up to speed.
Pipes don't last forever, and once they begin to break down, small problems tend to multiply. Our team swaps out those worn sections before they leave you with a bigger mess, matching the new material to your home's needs.
Replacing every line at once sounds daunting, but it's often the cleanest fix for a home riddled with failing pipes. Our approach to home repiping covers the entire system in a coordinated way, so you're not living through one repair after another.
Corrosion works quietly, eating away at pipe walls until flow drops and leaks appear. We locate the affected runs, remove the compromised pipe, and install clean, reliable replacements.
Copper has earned its reputation as a tough, long-lasting choice for home plumbing. When it fits the job, we run fresh copper lines that withstand years of daily use and resist corrosion.
PEX has become a go-to option for many homeowners thanks to its flexibility and corrosion resistance. Our crew installs PEX where it makes sense, threading it through walls with less demolition than rigid pipe often requires.
Weak pressure can stem from corroded lines, hidden leaks, or buildup inside the pipes. We track down what's slowing your flow and address the root cause, not just the symptoms.
The line running from the street to your home does heavy lifting, so a break along it can cut your flow and spike your bill. Our team pinpoints the damage and repairs the section without disturbing more of your yard than necessary.
When a service line is too far gone to patch, replacing it outright is the smarter play. We remove the failing line and install a new one built to last. Handing this off to our experienced plumbing company means the work gets done thoroughly and to code.
There's nothing fun about a leak that stays hidden, especially when the first clue is a spike on your water bill or a soft spot underfoot. For leak detection and slab leak repair, we use electronic listening tools to zero in on the source, then address pinhole leaks, faulty water lines, and problems lurking beneath the slab.
A cranky water heater has a knack for acting up right when you've got a full house and a line for the shower. Our water heater services run the gamut from repairs and maintenance to new installations, and we're glad to talk through tank versus tankless options for both gas and electric.
A struggling sewer line usually tips its hand with sluggish drains, strange gurgles, and an odor that hangs around. We take on sewer line repair and replacement of every kind, leaning on trenchless methods and pipe bursting where possible, so your yard stays mostly intact.
Gas work isn't the place for guesswork, so it helps to have someone who's done plenty of it standing on the safe side of things. Our gas line services cover new installations, replacements, repairs, appliance hookups, and pressure testing to keep the entire system sealed and sound.
Small plumbing hiccups have a way of stacking up, like a faucet that won't stop dripping or a disposal that's clearly seen better days. Our general plumbing services cover the routine stuff: repairs, drain clogs, fixture installs, and pipe fixes throughout the house.

You may need repiping if your home has frequent leaks, rusty or discolored water, low water pressure, or old, corroded pipes. A licensed plumber can inspect the system and let you know whether a repair will work or whether whole-house repiping is the smarter long-term fix.
PEX and copper can both work well, but they fit different homes and budgets. PEX is flexible and often easier to install, while copper is durable and has been used in plumbing for a long time. A plumber can help you compare both options for your home.
Water service line problems can stem from aging pipes, corrosion, soil movement, tree roots, high water pressure, or normal wear and tear. If you notice soggy areas in the yard, low pressure, or a sudden spike in your water bill, you may need water service line repair.
Repiping and water line services can include whole-home repiping, water service line repair, water service line replacement, copper repiping, PEX repiping, and replacement of corroded pipes. A plumber will usually inspect the plumbing first, explain the issue, and walk you through repair or replacement options.
Replacement usually makes sense when pipes keep leaking, corrosion has spread, or repairs are becoming a regular part of your calendar. At that point, repiping can save you from paying for one patch after another while still dealing with the same worn-out plumbing system.
