When it comes to remodeling, plumbing is often the hidden work that makes the rest of the upgrade possible. Whether you’re updating your kitchen, transforming your bathroom, or renovating a commercial space, Alpha Plumbing brings decades of experience to every remodeling project. We understand how to work with older homes in Lexington, meet local codes, and collaborate with other contractors to get the job done right.
We work on a wide range of plumbing remodeling projects. That includes kitchens and bathrooms in single-family homes, full residential gut jobs, and light commercial renovations like dental offices or medical suites. Every remodeling project has its own challenges, especially when older plumbing systems or non-standard materials are involved. Our team knows what to look for and how to bring outdated plumbing up to today’s code.
If you’re changing the layout of a kitchen or bathroom, we can move water lines, drains, or vent stacks as needed. If you’re adding a new fixture or appliance, like a second sink or pot filler, we’ll make sure it’s properly supplied and drains like it should. And if your commercial project involves code-sensitive work like medical gas or backflow protection, we handle all of that in-house.
We know how to keep remodeling projects on schedule. Our team regularly coordinates with general contractors, electricians, HVAC techs, and designers to make sure plumbing never becomes the bottleneck. We show up when we say we will, and we keep communication open so everyone knows what to expect.
If your remodel is happening in phases, we’ll work with your GC to identify the right times to rough in plumbing, make adjustments, and return for final trim-out. That prevents delays and avoids rework. We also help catch potential problems early by flagging issues before they get covered up by tile or drywall.
A remodel is often the best time to upgrade your plumbing. If your home still has galvanized steel or older copper that’s beginning to corrode, we can repipe sections or entire rooms during the project. This improves water pressure, reduces the risk of future leaks, and gives you better long-term reliability.
We also help clients select high-efficiency fixtures and materials that support their design goals. Whether you want a wall-mounted toilet, a touchless kitchen faucet, or a pot filler over your stove, we’ll walk you through the installation options and what’s needed to make it work. Our goal is to bring your vision to life without cutting corners on quality or safety.
In older homes, we often discover plumbing that no longer meets today’s safety standards. That could include unvented drains, deteriorated cast iron, or improper slope that causes backups. We’ll flag these issues during the initial inspection and explain your options.
We don’t just patch over problems. If a line needs to be replaced or rerouted, we’ll explain why, show you the affected area, and do the work to modern standards. When remodels involve structural changes, we also take the time to verify that venting, pressure, and drainage are all correct for the new layout.
We see plenty of DIY remodels and contractor jobs where the plumbing wasn’t done right. Maybe the vanity drain was installed too high, or a shower pan wasn’t connected properly to the drain line. We correct these problems the right way, and we make sure you don’t run into issues after your project is finished.
Plumbing is a major part of any successful remodel. At Alpha Plumbing, we take pride in making sure the infrastructure behind the walls is as reliable and high quality as the fixtures you see.
