CUSTOMER REVIEWS: POLY B REPLACEMENT

What Calgary Homeowners Are Saying About Urban Piping's Poly B Replacement Service

Finished in 8 Days—Exactly as Promised

We purchased a new house in Hawkwood and the home inspector found Poly B. He mentioned we should have it changed before we moved in. We called Urban Piping because of their numerous online reviews and recommendations. Graham organized for one of his teams to start the job the afternoon we got possession of the house, and they stayed late every day so we could move in as soon as possible. Job was completed in 8 days as promised and the house looks better than we remembered it. Glad we can live in our new house worry free. Thank you guys!

Sarah & Tom Baker | Hawkwood, Calgary

Exact Day Promised, Exact Price Quoted

I have continuously over the past three years been having small Poly B leaks throughout the home, each time fixing them myself buying a little more time until the next one. Having now just recently retired I was wanting to travel more with the wife and this Poly B I knew would have to go. I set up interviews with a couple companies to see which one would be best suited for our house. I found Graham was extremely knowledgeable on the topic and was the one we felt most confident in. Graham responded to my doubts by scheduling walk throughs of my house at each stage and answering any and all questions I had. He also talked to my insurance company and notified them of the work that was completed. I’m happy to say the remediation was finished without a hitch, on the exact day promised and for the exact price quoted.

Ron S. | Hawkwood, Calgary

They Take Care of Everything—Plumbing, Drywall, Painting

After years of dealing with constant leaks we finally caved and decided to get the pipes replaced. Our insurance broker provided us with the company Urban Piping and told us if we were getting it done these were the guys. They were great! Took care of everything from start to finish—the plumbing, the drywall, the painting. Glad this headache is over and we don’t have to worry about leaks anymore. Will be referring you guys to all my neighbours.

Daryl & Leslie Richmond | McKenzie Lake, Calgary

Couldn't Even Tell Where They Removed Walls and Ceilings

Found water on my ceiling and called in Urban Piping to come in and take a look at the mystery leak. He removed part of the ceiling and found it was a Poly B line that had sprung a pinhole leak. He repaired the leak on the spot but recommended I have the whole house repiped or the problem would happen again. I did some more research into the Poly B piping and after contacting my insurance agent, I concluded that I would be replacing the pipe. I had such a good first encounter with Urban Piping so I called them back in. The owner Graham came to my house and we discussed the project. He was so wonderful to deal with. Graham took care of organizing a team to deal with my house from start to finish with no hiccups. They were in and out in 9 days, and we couldn’t even tell where they had to remove walls and ceilings! It’s a good thing they take pictures of their progress along the way or else you would never know they were there. Thank you so much Urban Piping for helping us through this renovation so seamlessly.

Deb T. | Edgemont, Calgary

You Can't Even Tell Where They Cut

I had a Poly B leak in our house, got these guys out to fix the leak and give me a quote on replacing/remediation. They were so professional I decided to refrain from getting other quotes and pull the trigger with them. I was scheduled for a month later. That morning a crew showed up at 8am and were quickly to work. They have since finished the house in only 5 days! I couldn’t be happier with the work these guys have done—you can’t even tell where they cut holes in the walls or ceiling.

Bruce Thomas | Hidden Valley, Calgary

Unparalleled Knowledge in Poly B Replacement

We recently replaced all of the Poly B piping in our house in Woodbine using Urban Piping. As a couple in our later years we are always hesitant when dealing with contractors as we have all heard the horror stories—estimates that are way off, work that wasn’t done correctly, etc. We did our due diligence and had made sure we received references. We were presently surprised when Graham provided us references all within a couple blocks of us—we even knew one of them. After that our fears and anxiety levelled off and we gave him the go ahead. He provided excellent service, scheduled walk throughs, and finished in the 10 days he promised with the exact price quoted. We heavily suggest anyone interested in getting this type of work done to call Urban Piping Ltd and give them a shot. Their knowledge in this type of work is unparalleled in my opinion.

Willy | Woodbine, Calgary

Extremely Professional—Ballpark Price Was Exact

Had numerous leaks in my house. After fighting at wits ends with my insurance company trying to get them to cover the leaks, I gave in and just called Urban Piping. They were extremely professional and gave me a ballpark over the phone, so I knew what to expect when they came to my house. Upon arrival they quoted me exactly in the ballpark price they had indicated over the phone. I booked the project to start about two months later. Everything was extremely professional from the time they arrived to the time I came back to the house a week later. My advice to someone in the same situation is to just bite the bullet and call the guys at Urban Piping—they make this huge project look like a walk in the park.

Kenith Howe | Spruce Grove (Calgary Area)

Poly B Replacement Done Without a Hitch

Hey I just wanted to send you guys an email to let you know how impressed my wife and I were with your companies services. Everything was done on time and we can’t even see where the holes you guys cut were. We really appreciated the daily phone calls from Mark to let us know the status updates on the house. Thank you so much.

Angela & Toni | Calgary Area

Finished Poly B Replacement Friday—Expected Tuesday

Big shout out to Graham and his team of professionals for the complete polybutylene replacement in my house. Guys got here at 7am on Monday morning and I received a call Friday afternoon asking if I was available for a walk through at 6pm. I wasn’t expecting the house to be finished until the Tuesday, but Graham and his team worked miracles on my place. I can’t even tell where they cut into the ceiling.

Brandon Quibble | Calgary Area

I Can't Even Tell Where They Cut—Finished in 5 Days

I am so glad I called these guys. I had a Poly B leak in our house, got these guys out to fix the leak and give me a quote on replacing/remediation. They were so professional I decided to refrain from getting other quotes and pull the trigger with them. I was scheduled for a month later. That morning a crew showed up at 8am and were quickly to work. They have since finished the house in only 5 days!

Can I use sharkbite fittings on poly b pipes as a temporary fix?

While poly b sharkbite or sharkbite poly b fittings might seem like a quick solution, we strongly advise against them. Sharkbite for polybutylene connections are only temporary bandaids on a failing system. The pb pipe itself continues deteriorating, and these poly b to pex sharkbite adapters often fail under the stress of degrading polybutylene. Any use of polybutylene sharkbite connections should be immediately followed by complete poly b replacement. Don’t waste money on temporary sharkbite poly b solutions when permanent polybutylene pipe replacement is what’s needed.
