Costs range from $10,000–15,000 + GST depending on home size and complexity, with financing options starting at $150/month.

Quick response, efficient care in replacing entire piping in house. Knowledgable and straight to point on issues. Only problem was follow-up on some issues. Had a personal hand tool go missing after job was complete and was told it would be looked for in workers equipment. There was no follow up information provided and several attempts to inquire about retrieving it from whomever took it were not acknowledged or calls returned. Hand tool still missing.

Had Graham and two of his crew completely replace all poly b piping in my house and brought to code with pex piping. They had completed my entire house in one full day. Also addressed other issues and actually repaired them and kept the price within our contract. They were very friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond. Me my wife and our newest little addition, are very thankful. The drywall and painting afterwards within the same company, was top notch.
They even mudded my main wall and painted to match their repairs. That wasn't included in the price but they did it anyways. I cannot express how thankful we are. The company should have 5 star rating. I highly recommend them for any plumbing or poly b needs. Even drywalling. They will definitely be hired for any services going forward and all my family and friends will use nobody else. Thanks Urban Piping

Recent supply chain deficiencies meant that a critical replacement part was not available for an important mechanical repair at our large condominium. Thank you, Urban Piping, for fashioning a custom pipe so that hot water was quickly restored to the boiler in our building. You are ROCK STARS! Service: Plumbing pipe repair

A pipe burst in the middle of the night and we were freaking out, didn't know who to call and what to do. We got a hold of Graham from Urban Piping, and he was there very quickly. The fast call back time was what sold us, as well as his knowledgeable conversation. The job was done quickly, its like they were never here. Very impressed with the work from Urban Piping.

My dad had to have all of his piping replaced before listing his house. We thought it was going to cost an arm and a leg but we found Urban Piping and were very happy with the estimate. He did not over charge anything, no hidden fees, and the quality of work and time put in is well worth it. I am happy that we decided to use Graham and his team because they are hard working individuals who get the job done.

While renovating our kitchen we had to get call a plumber in because of a small leak. When Graham was there he was fixing the repair and had informed us that the piping in our home was out of date and banned. We ended up going with Urban Piping for an entire plumbing pipe replacement. 10/10 would recommend them.

Urban piping installed a new hot water heater in my house. Gary and Dennis were efficient and polite. They took care not to damage my floors while removing the old water heater and bringing in the new water heater. They installed a good quality quarter turn ball valve and used braided hoses, ensuring an easy install years down the road. The hot water tank itself was a high spec model and was installed at a reasonable price.

I recently purchased a house with poly b piping, and my insurance company requested I had it replaced before I moved into the house. I used urban piping as they offered the complete package for replacement, which included all plumbing and drywall work. It was completely painless, as they were in and out in just over a week, and left the house so I couldn't even tell they were there!

Graham responded promptly late Friday to my plea for help for a new water heater and provided a a very reasonable quote and confirmation to replace it the very next business day (Monday)! Monday saw Jordan arrive just as promptly at the appointed time. He was courteous, efficient and performed a very clean replacement installation of the new one. Very happy!

Jordan arrived punctual, and completed the job to our satisfaction in the time allotted. Both Jordan and Graham were friendly and courteous. Job site was left clean and tidy after old tanks removed. They were recommended to us by a friend, and I would certainly recommend them to our friends.
