III.PROCESS

The Paragon Plumbing Standard

1. 1

   Advanced camera inspection and pressure diagnostics — we assess your system without demolition, using CCTV sewer cameras and supply line pressure testing to document the exact condition before quoting.

2. 2

   Transparent, line-item estimate with material specifications — you see exactly what copper alloy, PEX-A grade, or fixture spec we're installing, and why, before you approve any work.

3. 3

   Precision installation using Type L copper or Uponor PEX-A (the highest grade) — not the minimum code-compliant materials. All fittings are properly sweated, pressure-tested, and inspected.

4. 4

   City permit pull and final inspection — all structural or service-upgrade plumbing is permitted. We manage the permit process and schedule the city inspection.

5. 5

   Spotless handover — we protect all work areas with floor runners and drop cloths, and the home is left cleaner than we found it. Work areas are photographed before and after.

VI.FAQ

General Plumbing — Frequently Asked Questions

Is copper or PEX-A better for South Bay homes?

Both are excellent — the right choice depends on your situation. Copper (Type L) is the gold standard for longevity (50+ years), handles heat well, and is preferred for homes with a history of pinhole leaks due to hard water. PEX-A (Uponor) is flexible, freeze-resistant, requires fewer fittings (less chance of leak points), and is faster to install in existing homes without opening every wall. We recommend both types for different scenarios and explain our rationale clearly.

How do I know if I have a slab leak?

Common signs include warm spots on the floor (hot water line leak), the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, unexplained spikes in your water bill, or damp carpet or flooring near the center of the home. Paragon offers electronic leak detection — we locate the leak without opening the slab first, which saves significant demolition cost.

How long does a whole-home repipe take?

A typical 1,500–2,500 sq ft South Bay home takes 2–3 days for a full copper or PEX-A repipe. Water is off during active work but restored each evening. We schedule the city inspection to occur within 24 hours of completion so you're not waiting on a permit hold.

Do you pull city permits for plumbing work?

Yes — for all work that requires one. This includes water heater replacements, repiping, gas line work, sewer lateral replacement, and slab repairs. Unpermitted plumbing work creates title issues when you sell and voids manufacturer warranties. We never skip the permit process.
