Poly B Pipe Replacement in Vancouver, BC

Vancouver has an enormous inventory of homes built during the poly B plumbing era. From East Vancouver bungalows to West Side character homes to the wave of townhome construction in Mount Pleasant and Strathcona, polybutylene pipe was the standard supply line material across the city between 1978 and 1995. Vancouver homeowners and strata councils are under increasing pressure from insurers to document poly B replacement — and we're here to help.

Vancouver's building stock includes a significant share of strata properties constructed in the early to mid-1980s when poly B was widely specified. Many of these buildings are now navigating the insurance compliance requirements that come with aging poly B plumbing on a building-wide scale. We work directly with strata councils and property managers to plan and execute coordinated poly B replacement programs in Vancouver condos and townhomes.

For single-family homeowners in Vancouver, the driver is usually an insurance renewal letter, a home inspection finding during a sale, or a leak that's made the problem impossible to ignore. We handle all three scenarios — the proactive whole-home repipe, the pre-sale poly B replacement and documentation, and the emergency repair following an active failure.
