Poly B Pipe Repair & Replacement

If you only read one paragraph, read this!

The hard truth is that Poly B is very concerning if it is in your home.

What is Poly B Piping?

Poly B got its name because it is technically called polybutylene pipe. It’s a semi-flexible grey coloured water line that might even be stamped with “PB2110” (like the image shown) or “poly B potable”. 

It isn’t toxic or bad for you. It is very bad for your house and bank account when it starts to leak.

Better assurance that you’ll avoid a disaster.

Your insurance rates should improve if you replace your Poly B piping. 

Stop worrying about when your pipes will leak.

Why does Poly B fail and leak?

There are many theories about how and why it will not last, and regardless of the causes, there is nothing you can do other than replace it with another type of piping. We also know the common statement that only the plastic fittings are the issue, but this is a myth.  We have seen the pipe itself develop a pinhole more times than you would think – this is a very common issue. The pipe simply gets brittle and fails on fittings and crimps, as mentioned on the pipe itself. Your focus needs to be on resolving the problem, not getting stuck on why they failed.
