Poly-B plumbing was installed in Calgary-area homes from the late 1970s through the mid-1990s. When a plumber does a full re-pipe or repairs a failed fitting in an Altadore home, the job leaves cut-outs in walls and ceilings. Altadore is one of NW Calgary’s newest communities, built entirely with PEX plumbing. Plumbing repair patches here are small scope. Once the Altadore plumber finishes and inspections pass, we close each opening, finish to Level 4 and match texture so the repipe disappears. We cover Altadore, Ambleton, Carrington and Glacier Ridge and surrounding communities, 7 days a week.

Read our reviews on GoogleAltadore has been through many freeze-thaw cycles, so before quoting poly-b repair we look at whether a crack is old movement that has stopped or something still opening.
Some Altadore homes are plaster rather than drywall behind the paint, which changes the repair entirely — different backing, different bonding, different failure mode.
Altadore has infill builds next to original houses, so two homes a few doors apart can need completely different work.
