Poly-B drywall repair in Walker — close every cut-out, invisible under paint

Poly-B plumbing was installed in Edmonton-area homes from the late 1970s through the mid-1990s. When a plumber does a full re-pipe or repairs a failed fitting in an Walker home, the job leaves cut-outs in walls and ceilings. Walker is one of Ellerslie’s newest communities, built entirely with PEX plumbing. Plumbing repair patches here are small scope. Once the Walker plumber finishes and inspections pass, we close each opening, finish to Level 4 and match texture so the repipe disappears. We cover Walker, Charlesworth, Decoteau, Ellerslie and surrounding communities, 7 days a week.

Our poly-B re-pipe drywall repair process in Walker

Inspections first — we do not close cut-outs early in Walker homes

We do not close a single wall or ceiling cut-out in your Walker home until the plumbing re-pipe is done and inspections have passed. Sealing an Walker home before the Poly-B system passes inspection means a second cut and a second bill. We coordinate with the plumber and schedule to follow the inspection, every time.

Every opening taped to Level 4 and texture matched in Walker

After inspections, we fit new board into each cut-out and tape the joints to Level 4 — properly bedded tape, multiple coats, sanded flat. In Walker, the joints must be true or the repair shows once it is painted. We texture match every repaired area to the surrounding wall or ceiling in your Walker home — knockdown, smooth or any existing pattern — and leave paint-ready. The Walker cut-ins should disappear — no sign the plumber was ever there.

Why Walker homeowners choose Emplastrum for poly-B re-pipe drywall repair

The communities with the highest poly-B plumbing density in Edmonton are almost all in the northwest: Charlesworth, Decoteau, Ellerslie.

Full re-pipe drywall work in Ellerslie is one of our most consistent services. If you are in one of these communities and have not had the plumbing addressed yet, a fitting failure is a matter of when, not if.
