Can you handle the mechanical rough-in for a laneway house in Vancouver?

Yes. Laneway house mechanical rough-ins are a growing part of our Vancouver work. We handle full plumbing, heating, and gas rough-ins and are familiar with the City of Vancouver's specific permit requirements and inspections for laneway suites.

My East Van character home has polybutylene pipe — what does a full repipe involve?

A whole-home repipe typically takes one to two days depending on the property's size and layout. We replace all poly-B supply lines with PEX-A, patch wall openings neatly, and coordinate the water shut-off to minimize disruption. City of Vancouver permits are pulled and inspected.

Common Vancouver Needs

Vancouver homes frequently need polybutylene pipe replacement, hot water tank upgrades required by EnerGuide standards, and gas line extensions for new appliances. Laneway house plumbing and heating rough-ins are a growing area of our Vancouver work as the city encourages gentle densification.
