Notes

Where the number comes from. The national price for a whole-house repipe is $600 per fixture — whole-house repipe pricing published for 2026, $380–$1,050 per fixture — the low end is PEX, the high end copper. Labor is about 70% of that. Plumbers, Pipefitters, and Steamfitters in Mississippi average $56,690 a year against a U.S. mean of $72,170 — a factor of 0.786 — so the labor half is scaled by that and the material half is not.
What is in the price: new supply lines to every fixture, valves, connections at each stub-out, pressure testing, and labor.
What is not: drywall repair and repainting after the walls are opened, drain and vent lines, the water heater, and permits. These are the lines that turn a $7,139 quote into a $8,923 invoice, so ask about each one before signing.
Why state matters more than people expect. Materials ship at national prices; crews do not move. Mississippi sits below the national mean by 21.4%, which lands on 70% of the job and moves the total by $1,261.
Use this as a bid check, not a quote. It prices an average job in an average condition. Difficult access, the state of what is being replaced, the season, and a crew booked out three months all move the real number, and none of them are in a per-unit average.

Repiping 14 fixtures in Mississippi

$7,139 is the typical figure, and bids on the same scope normally land between $4,521 and $12,493.

That is 14 fixtures at $510 each.

Why this is not the national number

The same job priced at the U.S. average comes to $8,400 — this one is $1,261 less.

The reason is one number, and it is a published one. Plumbers, Pipefitters, and Steamfitters in Mississippi average $56,690 a year against a U.S. mean of $72,170, from the Bureau of Labor Statistics OEWS release for May 2025, SOC 47-2152. That is roughly $27 an hour of trade pay, a factor of 0.786, or −21.4% against the national mean.

Labor is about 70% of this job. Material is the other 30%, and a box of fittings costs the same in every state it is opened in. So only the labor half is scaled here, and the material half is left at national pricing.

That is the whole model, and it is deliberately simple enough to check: $4,997 of labor, $2,142 of material.

Count fixtures, not bathrooms

A repipe is quoted per fixture, and a fixture is anything with a supply stub: every sink, every toilet, every shower or tub, the washing machine, the dishwasher, the water heater, and each outside hose bib. A "two-bathroom house" is usually 11 to 14 of them once the kitchen, laundry and exterior are counted, which is why quotes for the same house differ before anyone has priced a single foot of pipe.

PEX or copper decides most of the spread

The $4,521–$12,493 range on this page is mostly one choice. PEX is faster to run, needs fewer joints, tolerates a freeze that would split copper, and lands near the bottom of the range. Copper costs more in both material and hours and sits near the top. Both are code-legal almost everywhere; the argument is about resale expectations and installer habit, not about whether the water is safe.

The line that surprises people

Opening walls is in the price. Closing them is not. Drywall repair, texture matching and repainting after a repipe regularly add a quarter to the total, and they are done by a different trade on a different invoice. Ask whether the quote ends at pressure test or at paint before you compare two of them.

How to use this against a real bid

Three quotes on identical scope should cluster. One well under $4,521 usually means something was left out of the scope rather than found cheaper — read the exclusions before reading the total. One well over $12,493 is either a harder job than average or a crew that does not want the work and priced accordingly.

The figure above prices an average job in average condition. Access, the age of what is being replaced, the season, and how booked the crew is all move it.
