Florida's harsh water, salt air, and aging plumbing materials catch up with homes eventually. Corroded copper, brittle polybutylene, and pinhole leaks are the most common reasons our customers call for a repipe. A-1 Plumbing & Gas is Uponor Certified across our entire crew, which means we install the modern PEX systems that last and we minimize the disruption to your home.

Florida construction has gone through several generations of plumbing materials, and each era has its own failure pattern. Homes built before 1990 often have galvanized steel or original copper that has run out of life. Homes built between roughly 1978 and 1995 often have polybutylene piping (gray, plastic, brittle), which is known to fail and is no longer code-compliant. Newer homes built with early copper installations are now reaching the age where pinhole leaks become common. Repiping is not a vanity project. It is a structural plumbing repair for the rest of the home's lifespan.
If your home was built between 1978 and 1995 and still has its original plumbing, there is a chance you have polybutylene. It is gray, plastic, and brittle. Once it starts to fail it tends to keep failing. A whole-home repipe can often be the only permanent fix.
Florida's water chemistry combined with electrical grounding issues in older homes causes pinhole leaks in copper. One pinhole is a repair. Three pinholes in the same year is a sign the whole system is failing.
Pre-1970 homes still standing in Naples often have galvanized steel supply lines that are rusted from the inside out. Pressure drops to a trickle, water comes out rusty, and the only fix is replacement.
Coastal homes on Marco Island and waterfront Naples see faster pipe degradation from saltwater air working through the wall cavities. Repipes are common on older coastal homes.
Florida homeowner insurance increasingly requires disclosure or replacement of polybutylene plumbing. A repipe before listing the home prevents the issue from showing up in inspection and killing the sale.
As Naples's trusted plumbing contractor, A-1 Plumbing & Gas handles every residential and commercial plumbing need in Collier County's largest city. Naples's mix of luxury condos, single-family homes, and waterfront estates demands a plumber who knows Florida construction — slab foundations, aging copper lines, high mineral content water, and coastal salt air that accelerates fixture corrosion. We offer same-day service and 24/7 emergency response throughout Naples.
Bonita Springs sits at the border of Collier and Lee County, and A-1 Plumbing & Gas serves the entire area — from the Imperial River corridor to Bonita Beach Road and the gated communities of Pelican Landing and Coconut Point. Our plumbers handle the same Florida-specific challenges found throughout Southwest Florida: hard water, aging pipes, slab leaks, and gas line work for outdoor kitchens and pool heaters.
Marco Island's waterfront properties face accelerated pipe and fixture corrosion from salt air, and vacation rental turnover puts extra demand on every plumbing system on the island. A-1 Plumbing & Gas serves Marco Island homeowners, condo associations, and vacation rental managers with emergency service, leak detection, water heater replacement, and preventive plumbing maintenance — all by licensed Florida plumbers.
Estero's rapidly growing residential communities, from Miromar Lakes to Bella Terra and Wildcat Run, rely on A-1 Plumbing & Gas for licensed plumbing and gas work. We install natural gas and LP propane lines for outdoor kitchens and generators in newer Estero construction, and we service the aging plumbing in older communities with camera inspections, repiping, and leak detection.
Fort Myers is Lee County's largest city, and A-1 Plumbing & Gas serves the full market — from historic downtown homes with aging galvanized plumbing to the newer developments in south Fort Myers and Gateway. Our licensed techs handle drain cleaning, water heater replacement, sewer line repair, gas line installation for generators and outdoor kitchens, and 24/7 emergency plumbing throughout Fort Myers.
Golden Gate Estates and the Golden Gate City corridor have a higher rate of well water systems and LP propane use than coastal Naples — two specialties where A-1 Plumbing & Gas has deep experience. We install and service well water filtration systems, propane gas lines, water softeners, and all standard residential plumbing for Golden Gate homeowners.
North Naples encompasses some of Collier County's most established residential communities, including Pelican Bay, Tiburon, Mediterra, and Quail Creek. A-1 Plumbing & Gas serves North Naples with high-end fixture installation, whole-home repiping, gas line work for outdoor kitchens, water filtration systems, and emergency plumbing — all with the licensed, certified technicians these communities expect.
My neighbor in Tall Oaks recommended A-1 Plumbing, I had some serious leaking issues and needed a repipe. From speaking with the owner (Jordan), his secretary Yocelyn and especially the fine work that Thomas, Caden, Walter and Ismael all performed was exemplary. They were all professional, punctual and very respectful. These gentlemen should be considered an asset to the business! I am very thankful for the work done and highly recommend this company!

A-1 Plumbing came to our rescue when we thought we had exhausted all chances of restoring water to our condo complex over a weekend when all other plumbing companies said it couldn't be done! Unbelievable dedication and clearly knowledgeable about plumbing! And time of day did not matter — they showed up! Couldn't ask for better service and we will be hiring them again!
