Re-Pipe Contractors
Virtual Inspections for Re-Pipe Contractors in Florida
A whole-house re-pipe is a one-day job for the crew and a three-week job for the permit — unless the inspection path is fixed. Freedom Code Compliance (FCC) performs virtual rough-in and final inspections for Florida re-pipe projects under Florida Statute 553.791, covering CPVC, PEX, and copper repipes in single-family, multifamily, and commercial properties. Most re-pipe permits are plumbing-only and do not require stamped plans.

We solve your biggest challenges
- Homeowners living without water while the re-pipe sits waiting on a building-department rough-in inspector
- Drywall crews idling because the pressure test cannot be witnessed for three days

- Material-specific installation details (PEX bend radius, CPVC solvent cure, copper fitting) failing on vague inspection comments

FAQ
Re-Pipe Contractors FAQs
Do re-pipe permits need plan review with FCC?
Typically no. Most Florida re-pipe permits — single-family and standard multifamily — are plumbing-only inspection permits and do not require stamped plans. Freedom Code Compliance performs the virtual rough-in pressure test and the virtual final. Plan review may come into play on larger commercial re-pipes, material changes that affect fixture unit load, or jurisdictions that require a plumbing riser diagram for multifamily. FCC handles the review when required and the inspection either way. FCC does not pull the permit or file the NTBO.
How does FCC handle CPVC, PEX, and copper verification on a virtual inspection?
Freedom Code Compliance verifies the re-pipe against the current Florida Building Code – Plumbing requirements for the specified material. On CPVC, that means verifying proper solvent-cement joints, support spacing, and that the system has been given the correct cure time before pressure testing. On PEX, that includes manufacturer-specific fitting type, bend radius, and support spacing. On copper, that includes fitting type, support, and proper isolation from dissimilar metals. The pressure test itself is witnessed live through myFCC Mobile or documented through GPS-tagged photo and video submissions.
How fast are virtual re-pipe inspection results?
Live video rough-in inspections through myFCC Mobile return results before the call ends, which can help the drywall crew avoid losing the day waiting on a witness. Offline inspections — with pressure-gauge photos, timestamped media, and clear shots of fittings, supports, and material transitions — are typically reviewed and returned within minutes during normal business hours. Re-pipe permits rarely involve plan review with Freedom Code Compliance, so on most jobs the only clock that matters is the inspection clock.
