Local Experts Reveal Best Use of Plano Home Improvement Rebates in 2026

Sewer line replacement named best rebate improvement by Master Plumbers

PLANO, TX, UNITED STATES, January 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- For twelve years, the Great Update Rebate has provided the residents of Plano, TX with a much-needed boost to improve the city’s housing stock. A team of residential Master Plumbers believes this year offers the best timing for homeowners to upgrade their aging sewer lines using the available rebates.

Mother Modern Plumbing recently announced the opening of its seventh location at 2115 Teakwood ln Ste 300, Plano, TX. For Mother’s Responsible Master Plumber Steven Smith, the new location offers a unique opportunity to take advantage of Plano’s strong home improvement rebate program.

“Plano’s a growing city that needs the plumbing infrastructure to match,” Smith explains. “We help people use the available rebates to upgrade their lines and appliances.”

Plano’s Great Update Rebate began in 2014, and currently offers $5,000 every 12 months for improvements to qualified owner-occupied houses, duplexes, townhomes and condos in Plano.

Smith identifies sewer line replacement as the best use of rebate funds towards local home improvement. With a median home age of 32 years, Plano’s housing stock regularly suffers from sewer main leaks, joint separations and tree root intrusions.

Most full sewer replacement projects in Plano meet the $20,000 minimum requirement needed to trigger the city’s $5,000 rebate. The ability to save up to 25% on sewer line improvements makes the project much easier to swallow for local residents.

“The math’s simple. Invest in prevention now while you’ve got rebate help, and avoid bigger repair bills when the city’s not helping you out,” Smith says.

Plano residents are advised to visit the city’s website for further information and application details regarding the Great Update Rebate. Mother Modern Plumbing notes several key details that will lead to project approval for homeowners.

The property in question must be owner-occupied. 30+ years old, and current on taxes and insurance. The homeowner must invest at least 10% of the property’s value or $20,000, whichever is less.

Plano residents interested in upgrading their sewer lines should request Schedule 40 PVC as the replacement material of choice. Smith describes it as “the gold standard” of current sewer pipe materials, for its durability and natural resistance to both external soil forces and internal corrosive chemicals from wastewater.

“It’s going to last you up to 100 years,” Smith says of Schedule 40 PVC. “So if you ever need to use the Plano rebate again, it won’t be for your sewer pipes.”
