Can you match the wall and ceiling texture after the patches in Kirkness?

Yes. Texture matching is part of every poly-B re-pipe drywall job we do in Kirkness. We reproduce the Kirkness finish, knockdown or smooth, so the re-pipe patches are invisible under paint. Not an upsell in Kirkness: every Poly-B repair includes it.

Can you coordinate timing with my plumber?

Yes. If you let us know before the re-pipe starts, we can communicate directly with the plumber to align our schedule with the inspection timeline. This keeps the walls closed as quickly as possible after the plumbing work is done.

How many wall and ceiling openings does a full poly-B re-pipe leave in an Kirkness home?

It depends on the Kirkness home layout and how the plumber ran the new Poly-B lines. A typical full re-pipe in a Edmonton-area home leaves 15 to 40 cut-outs. We count every Kirkness opening during the on-site assessment and price the full scope on one fixed number — every opening, one invoice.

Do I need to wait for plumbing inspections before you repair the drywall in my Kirkness home?

Yes. We do not close any cut-out in your Kirkness home until the plumbing re-pipe is done and inspections have passed. In Kirkness, sealing drywall ahead of the Poly-B inspection means it gets reopened and you pay twice. We work around your Kirkness plumber and book to follow the repipe inspections.

How many cut-outs does a full poly-B re-pipe typically leave in a Edmonton home?

How much patching a Kirkness home needs depends on its layout and the re-pipe routing. A one-storey Edmonton bungalow from the 1970s typically has 15 to 25 wall and ceiling cut-outs. A two-storey from the same era can have 25 to 40. We assess the full scope on-site and price it accordingly — one fixed price for every opening.
