Out with the old Poly-B, in with flexible, long-lasting PEX — installed cleanly with minimal disruption to your home.
Tell us what’s going on and our team will get back to you shortly.
Upgrading from Poly-B to PEX protects your home today and your insurance coverage tomorrow. PEX has become the standard replacement for old Poly-B plumbing lines — it is flexible, resistant to corrosion and freezing, and built to last for decades. We remove your existing Poly-B piping and install new PEX lines using a routing plan that keeps wall and ceiling access to a minimum.
Every connection is made with proper crimp or expansion fittings and colour-coded for hot and cold, then pressure tested before we close anything back up.
Poly-B shows up most often in the older subdivisions of Surrey, Coquitlam and Maple Ridge built during the pipe's peak years of use, though it can turn up in any Lower Mainland home from that era.

PEX has replaced both Poly-B and copper as the standard for new residential plumbing — here's why.
Resistant to freezing and corrosion in a way aging Poly-B never was.
Flexible lines mean fewer joints and fittings that could fail later.
A much longer service life compared to aging Poly-B piping.
Often preferred, or required, by home insurance providers.
Colour-coded piping for easy identification down the line.
Typically more affordable to install than rigid copper piping.
Routing planned in advance to minimize wall and ceiling openings.
Proper crimp and expansion fittings used at every single connection.
Every line pressure-tested before we close anything back up.
