Our Replacement Process

Why Replace Poly B Pipes?

Leaks and Water Damage

Poly B pipes become brittle over time due to UV exposure and chlorine, leading to small cracks and pinhole leaks that can result in costly repairs. If left unchecked, these leaks can cause extensive water damage, mould growth, and structural issues in your home's plumbing, making repiping services essential to protect your property and ensure the integrity of your water lines.

Chemical Sensitivity

Polybutylene plumbing does not interact well with modern water treatment chemicals, making it more prone to failure. The plastic fittings used in Poly B plumbing weaken over time, increasing the likelihood of improper installation issues and plumbing failures. This can lead to significant poly B plumbing replacement costs when upgrading to more reliable materials like brass fittings.

Insurance Issues

Many insurance providers no longer cover homes with Poly B plumbing due to its history of premature failure. Replacing polybutylene pipes can help homeowners secure better insurance rates and avoid costly repairs, allowing you to maintain a strong investment in your property and prevent potential disruptions to your business.

Resale Value

Homes with Poly B piping Calgary installations may struggle to attract buyers due to the high risk of future plumbing problems. Upgrading to a new plumbing fixture can significantly enhance your home's value and marketability, reassuring potential buyers that their investment is protected against common plumbing issues.

When Poly B is replaced with durable materials like brass fittings, it eliminates the risks of water damage and leaking pipes. Our pipe replacement services offer a long-term solution for homes with outdated plumbing, providing peace of mind and a secure water supply.
