Plumbing for Gibson Springs in Henderson, a 1990s community of townhomes, patio homes and single-family houses between Sunset and Warm Springs. Pipe identification, water heaters, slab leaks and repipes.
Gibson Springs is an established Henderson community of about 400 acres and more than 2,200 homes, started by Lewis Homes in 1993 and built out by several builders through the early 2000s. It sits between Sunset Road and Warm Springs Road and between Stephanie Street and Gibson Road, near the Galleria at Sunset, in ZIP codes 89014 and 89074. The mix matters for plumbing: attached townhomes and patio homes sit alongside single-family houses and a larger-home section, all on slab. Most homes date from the 1990s, so this is not newer PEX housing. The earliest houses, from 1993 to about 1995, fall at the tail of the polybutylene window, homes from about 1995 on fall in the Kitec window, and many others were plumbed in copper. We identify the material on the first visit instead of guessing, and where polybutylene or Kitec turns up, a planned repipe through our Pipe & Fixture Services is the recommendation because the whole system has aged together.
