  • Poly B removal has become a popular service due to its issues becoming more pressing. Homes with Poly B pipes are at an increased risk of leaks, which can cause extensive water damage and require emergency plumbing services from an experienced plumber. That's why Mr. Rooter Plumbing offers residential plumbing solutions, such as our Calgary Poly B replacement services.

  • Here's what our assessment process involves:

    • Inspection and Assessment: Before we begin replacing Poly B pipes, we first conduct a thorough inspection of the plumbing in your home. It enables us to plan replacement services more effectively and understand the full scope of the work required.
    • Shutting Off and Draining Your System: Next, the main water supply to your home is shut off, and your entire plumbing system is drained in preparation for the replacement process.
    • Accessing the Pipes: Drywall and other finishes are removed to allow for full access to the Poly B pipes. Depending on the layout, this might involve multiple locations within your home.
    • Removing Old Pipes: Now, we commence with a polybutylene pipe replacement. All of the Poly B pipes are removed from your home, including both the pipes themselves and their fittings.
    • New Piping Install: Once all the old pipes have been removed, we'll install new, top-notch plumbing materials—usually PEX (cross-linked polyethylene) or copper. The former is favoured for its durability, corrosion resistance, and lower installation costs.
    • Repairs and Final Tests: Once the new installation is complete, drywall and other disturbed finishes are restored. We'll also ensure that your new system is thoroughly tested to identify any potential leaks or other plumbing issues. It's critical to properly test your new plumbing system before restoring water service.

Frequently Asked Questions About Poly B Replacement: Calgary

  • Look for the following key signs that indicate you have Poly B pipes in your Calgary home:

    • Colour: Poly B pipes can be identified by their light grey to medium grey colour. However, they can be other colours, such as blue, black, white, or silver.
    • Markings: Look for specific codes stamped on the pipe, which might be "PB2110" or "CSA-B 137.8"—or simply look for the letters "PB."
    • Flexibility: Poly B pipes are very flexible, bending easily.
    • Fittings: These types of plumbing pipes usually use copper, plastic, or brass fittings. Plastic fittings, in particular, are a common Poly B indicator.
