When the supply plumbing reaches the end of its life, patching it one leak at a time stops making sense. We replace the whole system in PEX-A or copper.
The clearest signal is repetition. One leak is an event; three in two years is a system telling you it is finished. Other markers: the plumbing is Poly B or more than fifty years old, pressure has been falling across the whole house rather than at one fixture, or the water discolours after sitting overnight.
High groundwater makes crawlspace work in Ladner a wetter job than most, which is worth knowing before scheduling.
We install PEX-A as standard. It is flexible enough to follow existing cavities, which means fewer openings in your walls, it does not corrode, it handles a freeze far better than copper, and its expansion fittings avoid the plastic insert design that made Poly B joints so unreliable. We fit copper whenever a homeowner wants it.
The difference between a repipe you barely notice and one you never stop talking about is planning — so we map every run and agree exactly which openings we will make before anyone picks up a tool.

The seven signs a house needs repiping, the materials, the process and the timeline.
How repiping works →Ladner has a genuinely old village core alongside subdivisions that went in through the 1970s, 80s and 90s — the later ones are where the Poly B is.
Ladner is low-lying dyked land with a high water table. Sump pumps and perimeter drains are not optional equipment here, they are the thing keeping the basement dry.
