What Is Poly-B Plumbing & why are homeowners concerned about it?
Poly-B (polybutylene) is a grey plastic plumbing pipe that was commonly used in homes built several decades ago. Over time, Poly-B can deteriorate and increase the risk of leaks and water damage.
It can also affect home insurance. Some insurers may apply higher deductibles, exclusions or other conditions to homes with Poly-B plumbing, so homeowners should check with their insurance provider about their specific policy.
If you're not sure whether your home has Poly-B, we can assess your plumbing and help you understand your options.
