Partial Poly-B Plumbing Investigation in Beaumont, Alberta

Not every home with Poly-B plumbing has it throughout the entire house.

We recently worked with a homeowner in Beaumont, Alberta, who had Poly-B plumbing in only certain areas of their home.

The homeowner wanted to find out how much Poly-B piping was still running to the second floor before moving forward with a replacement.

Since the plumbing was hidden behind finished walls and ceilings, the homeowner chose to have our team open up sections of the drywall as a separate, paid investigation.

Service: Partial Poly-B Plumbing Replacement

Our Studio Plumbing team was brought in to:
- Carefully cut access openings in selected walls and ceilings.
- Expose the existing plumbing to identify where Poly-B piping was still present.
- Investigate the water lines running to the second floor.
- Determine the extent of the remaining Poly-B plumbing.
- Gather the information needed to prepare an accurate quote for replacing the affected piping.
Most of our Poly-B replacement projects involve a more straightforward assessment and replacement process. However, this home was a little different because only certain sections contained Poly-B.
The homeowner understood that opening the walls would involve additional costs and chose to proceed with the investigation before committing to the replacement.
This allowed us to assess the hidden plumbing without assuming how much work would be required.
Once the piping has been fully assessed, we can provide a separate quote for replacing the remaining Poly-B.
