Copper repiping has to be donw more carefully to avoid burning the house down. Depending on where the water heater is located, it may have to be raised or if there is no legitimate way to pipe the safety valve, then they may want to relocate it to a location where it can be. PVC cannot be used inside a house and can never be used for hot water piping.
