Why Edmonton Homeowners Must Replace Poly B Piping

Insurance Companies Are Taking Action

Major insurers operating in Edmonton—including Intact, Aviva, Co-operators, TD Insurance, and Wawanesa—are actively canceling policies on homes with Poly B plumbing. Homeowners throughout Terwillegar Towne, The Hamptons, Windermere, and other affected neighbourhoods receive non-renewal letters requiring complete pipe replacement within 12-24 months. New insurance applications are being denied when home inspections reveal Poly B piping. Insurance companies have analyzed the claim data: Poly B systems aged 25-45+ years fail at alarming rates, causing water damage claims averaging $15,000-$50,000 per incident.

Edmonton's Harsh Climate Speeds Up Poly B Deterioration

Edmonton experiences some of Canada’s most extreme weather conditions, which accelerates Poly B pipe failure significantly

Complete System Removal & Premium PEX Installation

Days 1-3

Our certified plumbers systematically remove every section of Poly B from your Edmonton property. We create strategic access points in ceilings and walls, then execute full system replacement:

It represents the highest-rated PEX material manufactured, handling pressures reaching 497 psi. Class A PEX won’t burst during Edmonton’s brutal -40°C winters—unlike Poly B which fails catastrophically in extreme cold. The material resists Edmonton’s hard water deposits, maintains performance across temperature extremes, and delivers 100+ year lifespan backed by comprehensive 25-year warranties.

Many Edmonton contractors substitute cheaper Class B or Class C PEX to maximize profits. Urban Piping installs exclusively Class A PEX because Edmonton’s severe climate demands premium materials for long-term reliability. Using inferior materials can lead to significant issues down the line, including leaks and reduced system efficiency. Homeowners should be informed about how to identify Poly B plumbing to avoid these pitfalls, as this type of piping is often associated with premature failure. By choosing contractors who prioritize quality materials, like Urban Piping, residents can ensure a dependable plumbing system that withstands Edmonton’s harsh conditions. Investing in quality plumbing materials not only enhances system performance but can also save homeowners from the Poly B replacement cost in Edmonton, which can be quite significant if not addressed promptly. It’s crucial to recognize that while initial savings may seem attractive, they can lead to much higher expenses in the long run. Selecting a reputable contractor ensures that your plumbing system is built to endure, safeguarding your home’s value and integrity.

Professional Drywall Restoration

Days 4-7

Unlike typical Edmonton plumbers who complete piping and leave homeowners searching for finishing contractors, Urban Piping’s in-house restoration specialists manage everything: They ensure that the entire process is seamless, from initial plumbing work to the final touches on your home. Their expertise extends to understanding Poly B insurance coverage in Edmonton, allowing them to guide homeowners through the complexities of claims and coverage options. This comprehensive approach guarantees that every aspect of the restoration is handled with care and professionalism, giving you peace of mind.

Full transparency: Some patch visibility may occur due to texture aging and lighting differences. Many Edmonton homeowners select full-room painting achieving seamless results, or choose our “Ceiling Renewal” service providing invisible patch integration. In addition to our painting services, homeowners often look to address structural concerns, with many opting for expert solutions like replacing Poly B in Edmonton condos. This proactive approach not only enhances aesthetics but also ensures long-term durability and peace of mind. By combining these services, residents can create a cohesive and worry-free living environment.

Our 2-year service warranty protects all drywall work.

The true cost of delaying replacement:

When comparing Edmonton contractor quotes, recognize that significantly lower pricing often indicates inferior materials. Some companies use Class B or C PEX rather than our premium Class A PEX to reduce expenses—but these lower-grade materials lack the freeze resistance and longevity Edmonton’s climate requires. Additionally, using lower-grade materials can lead to costly repairs and replacements down the line. Homeowners should be particularly cautious, as selling an Edmonton home with Poly B can deter potential buyers who are concerned about plumbing issues. Investing in quality materials upfront not only ensures durability but also enhances the overall value of your property.

Frequently Asked Questions: Poly B Replacement in Edmonton

How do I know if my Edmonton home contains Poly B piping?
If your property was built between 1985-1997, you likely have Poly B throughout your plumbing system. Look for grey flexible plastic pipes stamped “PB2110” with brass crimp fittings. Urban Piping provides complimentary home assessments—call (587) 598-3801 to schedule.
Many Edmonton-area insurers including Intact, Aviva, and Co-operators require complete Poly B removal within 12-24 months or deny policy renewal. Some refuse new policy applications when Poly B is discovered. Contact your specific insurer regarding your policy requirements and timeline.
Urban Piping offers three service packages ranging $5,000-$15,000 + GST, depending on home size, bathroom count, and selected package. We provide flexible financing with monthly payments starting at $150/month.

Insurance companies require complete removal of all Poly B piping to maintain or restore coverage. Additionally, partial replacement leaves aging sections that will likely fail soon, requiring another disruptive project. Complete replacement proves more cost-effective long-term.
