Burst Pipe Repair & Replacement in Hastings, NE

Draining outdoor faucets, insulating exposed lines and letting taps drip on very cold nights avoid most freeze damage.

We work quickly to minimize disruption and water loss.

Polybutylene Pipe Replacement in Hastings

Gray polybutylene pipe was installed in many homes from the late 1970s into the mid-1990s. It breaks down from the inside when exposed to chlorinated water, and fittings can crack without warning. Some insurers raise premiums or decline coverage on homes that still have it. We remove polybutylene supply lines and replace them with PEX-A or copper. A completed repipe can also help when listing the home.

PEX Repiping in Hastings

PEX-A is flexible, resists scale buildup and expands slightly if water freezes, which helps in colder homes. We use expansion fittings that keep the full inside diameter of the pipe for stronger flow. Systems can be run as a home-run manifold with a shutoff for each fixture or as a trunk and branch layout. PEX installs faster than copper with far fewer fittings in the walls. It is our most popular repipe material.

Slab Leak Pipe Replacement in Hastings

Slab leaks, common in homes built on concrete foundations, can be damaging and difficult to detect. These leaks often stem from corroded or damaged pipes embedded within or under your home's slab. FKV Plumbing uses advanced leak detection technology to locate the exact source, then expertly repairs or reroutes the compromised pipe, often using durable PEX to bypass the slab entirely, avoiding future issues in the same spot.

Copper Pinhole Leak Replacement in Hastings, NE

Pinhole leaks in copper usually start as a small green stain or a damp spot on drywall. They are caused by a mix of water chemistry, high velocity and thin Type M pipe, and once they begin they tend to keep coming back. Patching each leak costs $300 to $800 per visit plus drywall repair. We can replace the affected branch or repipe the home with PEX, which does not develop pinholes. We help you weigh the cost of both paths.

Drain Pipe Replacement in Hastings, NE

Cast iron drain pipe in older homes can rust through at the bottom, while some ABS from the 1980s was made with defective resin that cracks. Signs include sewer odors, slow drains and stains on ceilings below upstairs bathrooms. We camera the line first, then replace accessible sections with PVC or ABS. Under-slab drains can be tunneled, rerouted or lined depending on location. We explain the options with the camera footage on screen.
