Pressure Reducing Valve Replacement in Los Angeles, CA

A new service line can bring more pressure into the house than the old, scaled one did. That is good up to a point. Above 80 psi, faucets bang, toilet fill valves wear quickly, and new pipe joints take more stress than they should. The plumbing codes generally call for a pressure reducing valve when street pressure is higher than 80 psi.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Los Angeles, CA homeowners with plumbers who install and replace pressure reducing valves. The valve goes on the main line just after the shutoff, and it is usually set somewhere around 50 to 60 psi.

PRVs wear out. Signs include pressure that creeps up overnight, a relief valve on the water heater that drips, and a humming or chattering sound at the main. A gauge on a hose bib tells the story in a minute.

It makes sense to replace the PRV during a water line replacement or repipe. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301.

How it works

Four steps to water line replacement in Los Angeles, CA

  1. 01

    Describe the pipe

    Tell us what you see: a wet yard, rusty water, low pressure or old gray polybutylene. That points to the service line, the house pipes, or both.

  2. 02

    Talk it through

    We go over the job and the likely scope on the phone, then book a local plumber for Los Angeles, CA.

  3. 03

    Site visit and plan

    The plumber checks the pipe material, the run length and the shutoff, then lays out trench, trenchless or repipe options.

  4. 04

    Work and inspection

    You pay the local plumber directly. The price is agreed before any water line replacement or whole house repiping starts.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Pressure Reducing Valve Replacement in Los Angeles, CA.

Talk to a person
Can a water line be replaced without digging up my yard?
Often, yes. Trenchless pipe bursting uses two small pits, one near the meter and one near the house, and pulls new HDPE through the old path. It works best on fairly straight runs.
Who owns the water line between the street and my house?
In most areas the utility owns the line up to the meter or curb stop, and the homeowner owns the rest. Rules vary by city, so it is worth asking your water department.
Will my walls be torn up during a repipe in Los Angeles, CA?
No. Plumbers cut small access holes where pipes turn or connect, then patch, tape, mud and texture them. Closets and cabinet backs are used where possible.
Should I replace my main shutoff valve during a repipe?
Yes. An old gate valve often seizes or fails to close fully. A full port quarter turn ball valve is a small addition to a repipe or water line replacement job.
Can slab leaks be fixed without breaking the floor?
Often the lines under the slab are abandoned and new PEX is rerouted through the attic or walls. That leaves the concrete and flooring alone.
