Whole-Home Repiping in Port Coquitlam
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.
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.
Older PoCo houses often have accessible basement ceilings, which keeps the drywall damage on a repipe unusually low.
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.

How repiping works →Port Coquitlam saw substantial subdivision growth through the 1980s and 90s, so a large part of the housing stock falls inside the Poly B window.
Parts of PoCo sit low near the Pitt and Coquitlam rivers, which keeps sump pumps busy through a wet winter.
