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 a Cochrane home, the job leaves cut-outs in walls and ceilings. Cochrane spans established 1990s communities through newest 2020s builds. Bow Ridge and early West Valley sections from the late 1990s may have poly-B. Newer Cochrane communities — Fireside, Riversong, Sunset Ridge — were built with copper or PEX. We come in after the plumber is done and inspections have passed, close every opening, tape the joints to Level 4 and texture match — the re-pipe is invisible when we leave. We cover Cochrane, Bow Ridge, Fireside and Heritage Hills and surrounding communities, 7 days a week.
