Pvc is fine for main water line from meter or well .
Once the line makes it way to the house you should convert to cpvc or copper.
Cpvc is proven to be reliable and easy to repair.
Copper is tried and true but you must be knowledgeable about soldiering the joints .
Copper is worthless if you use it with well water that has high acid content.
You can not repair a copper line with a torch and solder if there is any water in the pipe.
You must dry the pipe out or you can pack the line with plain old white loaf bread.
Once you have made the repair turn the water on and the bread is devolved .
PVC is your go to for waste and drain lines.
Pex is not new it’s easy to use however the weak link is the connectors there is no room for error when making the connections.
