Polybutylene Pipe Replacement in Olga, WA

Polybutylene was installed in millions of homes built from about 1978 to 1995. It is a gray, sometimes blue, flexible plastic pipe, often stamped PB2110. Chlorine in municipal water breaks it down from the inside, and the pipe tends to fail at fittings with little warning.

SPB Hydro Plumbing connects Olga, WA homeowners with plumbers who remove polybutylene and replace it. Inside the house that usually means a whole house repiping in PEX. Outside, a blue PB service line from the meter is replaced with copper or HDPE.

Look for the pipe at the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house. Plastic acetal fittings and aluminum crimp rings are the older style and the most failure prone. Copper crimp rings were used later but do not fix the pipe itself.

Many insurers and home buyers now ask about polybutylene by name. Call SPB Hydro Plumbing at (866) 335-0301 to plan your polybutylene pipe replacement.

Water line replacement FAQs

Questions about water line replacement and whole house repiping

Questions we hear most often about Polybutylene Pipe Replacement in Olga, WA.

Talk to a person
How can I tell if I have polybutylene pipe?
Polybutylene is flexible gray or blue plastic, often stamped PB2110, found in many homes built from about 1978 to 1995. Check near the water heater, under sinks and where the main enters the house.
Who owns the water line between the street and my house?
In most areas the utility owns the line up to the meter or curb stop, and the homeowner owns the rest. Rules vary by city, so it is worth asking your water department.
Why is my water pressure low only in some rooms?
When pressure is fine at the hose bib but weak upstairs or at one fixture, rust scale inside galvanized pipe is the usual cause. A gauge test and a check of the pressure reducing valve come first.
What causes pinhole leaks in copper pipe?
Pinholes usually come from pitting corrosion caused by water chemistry, such as low pH or high chlorine or chloramine, or by high flow speed in small pipe. Repeat pinholes mean the whole run is thinning.
Can slab leaks be fixed without breaking the floor?
Often the lines under the slab are abandoned and new PEX is rerouted through the attic or walls. That leaves the concrete and flooring alone.
