The Sherwood Park crew that repipes and puts the walls back

Sherwood Park grew up fast through the late 1970s, 80s and early 90s, and that growth landed right in the peak Poly B years. If your place in Glen Allan, Brentwood or Mills Haven went up around then, odds are good that grey pipe is feeding your taps today. We take it out and install modern, code-approved polyethylene-based potable water distribution piping, including PE-RT or PEX, depending on project requirements, then leave the walls looking like nobody touched them.

The number we put in writing covers the whole job: removing the Poly B, running the new lines, repairing the drywall and painting. No surprise invoices, and no holes left behind for you to sort out after we leave.

Why so many Sherwood Park homes have Poly B

Poly B was the standard supply pipe in Canadian homes from roughly 1978 to 1997, and Strathcona County's biggest residential build-out sat dead centre in that span. Whole streets in the older Sherwood Park core were plumbed with it before it was pulled from the national plumbing code in 2005 for cracking and failing as it ages.

Strathcona County adds one wrinkle worth knowing. The hamlet runs on regionally treated water that, like Edmonton's, uses chloramine for disinfection, which is harder on Poly B than plain chlorine. Out on the rural acreages, plenty of homes sit on private wells or cisterns instead. Either way, the constant is age: a 30-plus-year-old line is on the clock no matter what comes out of the tap.

How to spot Poly B

Grey plastic pipe about as thick as a marker, joined with copper or plastic crimp rings and often stamped PB2110. Check at the hot water tank first, then under sinks and where lines run into the walls. It is not the white PVC of your drains, and it is not rigid copper.

County, not city

Sherwood Park is a hamlet inside Strathcona County, so your repipe permit comes from the County, not the City of Edmonton. We pull the right Safety Codes permit for your address and book the inspection, so it lines up the first time and stays on record for resale.

Got a Poly B letter from your insurer?

Alberta brokers now ask about Poly B at renewal. You might see a surcharge, a replacement deadline, water damage coverage dropped, or a flat non-renewal. One burst line can run past $15,000 in damage. Replacing the pipe clears the flag for good. Bring us the letter and we will quote a timeline that lands inside your deadline.

How the repipe runs

A whole-home repipe sounds like a wrecking ball through the house. Done right in a Sherwood Park home, it is a handful of clean days with the place livable the whole time. Here is the order we work in.

1

Free estimate

We walk the home, trace the Poly B, and hand you a flat written quote after the visit.

2

Protection

Floors, furniture and walkways get covered before any wall is opened.

3

Dust control

We seal off work areas with poly barriers and HEPA vacuums so the rest of the house stays usable.

4

Remove & repipe

Out with the Poly B, in with code-approved PE-RT or PEX, County permit filed and inspected.

5

Drywall & paint

We close the walls, patch and texture the drywall and colour-match the paint so you cannot tell.

Where we work in and around Sherwood Park

We cover the whole hamlet, from the older Glen Allan and Mills Haven streets through Lakeland Ridge and the newer Summerwood and Emerald Hills builds, and out across Strathcona County to Ardrossan, Antler Lake, North Cooking Lake, Collingwood Cove and Josephburg. We also head next door to Fort Saskatchewan and into Edmonton. Not sure if you are in range? Call (780) 993-5325 and we will tell you straight.

We know the local stock: which Brentwood and Broadmoor streets went in during the 80s, how the two-storey Lakeland Ridge houses are plumbed top to bottom, and how Strathcona County's Safety Codes office likes the permit paperwork.

Poly B replacement in Sherwood Park: common questions

Which Sherwood Park neighbourhoods are most likely to have Poly B?
The older core is where we find it most. Glen Allan, Brentwood, Mills Haven, Nottingham, Broadmoor, Craigavon and Sherwood Heights were largely built from the late 1970s through the early 1990s, squarely in the Poly B window. The 1990s build-out in Regency, Foxhaven, Clarkdale Meadows and Lakeland Ridge can have it too. Newer Summerwood, Aspen Trails and Emerald Hills homes are usually clear, since Poly B left the Canadian plumbing code in 2005. Look for grey flexible pipe stamped PB2110 at the hot water tank.
Who issues the plumbing permit for a Sherwood Park repipe?
Strathcona County, not the City of Edmonton. Sherwood Park is a hamlet inside Strathcona County, so a repipe is permitted and inspected through the County under the Alberta Safety Codes Act. We pull the County permit for your address and book the Safety Codes inspection, so the work is on record for resale and your insurer.
My Strathcona County acreage is on a well or cistern. Does that change the job?
A lot of rural Strathcona County homes around Ardrossan, Antler Lake, North Cooking Lake and Josephburg run on private wells or trucked cistern water with long runs from a pressure tank. We map the whole system from the tank in and quote it flat. Long horizontal runs are routine for us, and we size and route the new piping so pressure holds at every fixture once the Poly B is gone.
Does the water in Sherwood Park make Poly B fail faster?
Strathcona County is supplied with regionally treated water that, like Edmonton's, is disinfected with chloramine. Chloramine is harder on Poly B than plain chlorine, but the bigger driver is age. A Glen Allan or Brentwood line installed in 1988 is past 35 years old, and that is when Poly B gets brittle at the fittings and starts to weep. We treat age, not just water chemistry, as the real clock.
How much does Poly B replacement cost in Sherwood Park?
It comes down to the size of the home, the number of bathrooms, the finishes and how easy the pipe is to reach. A two-storey Lakeland Ridge house and a Mills Haven bungalow with a finished basement are different jobs. We give you a flat written number after an on-site look, and it covers removal, the repipe, drywall repair and paint. No hourly billing and no separate trades to chase.
I got a Poly B letter from my insurer. What now?
Alberta insurers including Intact, Aviva, Co-operators, TD and Wawanesa are flagging Poly B at renewal, with letters that usually give 12 to 24 months to replace. Booking early beats the year-end rush and gives you the better price and schedule. Bring us the letter and we will quote a timeline that lands inside your deadline. Call (780) 993-5325.
How long will my home be torn up?
Most Sherwood Park homes take a few days. The repipe is usually one to two days, then drywall and paint follow. You keep water service overnight in most cases, and we clean up at the end of each day so the house stays livable while we work.
What areas around Sherwood Park do you serve?
All of Sherwood Park and Strathcona County, including Ardrossan, Antler Lake, North Cooking Lake, Collingwood Cove and Josephburg, plus next-door Fort Saskatchewan and into Edmonton. Not sure if you are in range? Call (780) 993-5325.
