Q
What’s Poly B, and can you help me with it?
APoly B,  or Polybutylene, is a flexible grey pipe used in residential plumbing between 1985 and 1997. Because of its low cost, it was widely used over this period.

Unfortunately this piping has a very high failure rate, and is considered a serious risk by insurance companies and home inspectors.

Forward Plumbing & Gas specializes in Poly B replacement. The cost is typically lower than our customers anticipate, often lower than the cost of the insurance deductible if an issue were to occur! Our careful approach also ensures that you’ll have running water at the end of each workday for the duration of the project.
