Kitec pipes: What you need to know 

If you have Kitec pipes in your home, you need to get them replaced before they fail. Call EGH at 905-335-3035 for a free estimate for this work.

 

Kitec pipes were installed in nearly 300,000 homes in North America from 1995 to 2007, including many condos and homes in Burlington and Oakville. That’s because the pipes were marketed as cheaper than copper, flexible and easy for plumbers to install. 

But Kitec pipes deteriorated rapidly and often failed, leading to leaks, floods and damage. They were recalled in 2005, but many are still found in homes and condos today. Replacing them before a disastrous leak will result in lower repair costs and little disruption to your home. 

Since 80% of the Kitec pipes are hidden behind the wall of your sinks, toilet and laundry area, you need to hire a licensed plumber who knows where to find them. That’s EGH. 

We have replaced Kitec pipes in many condos and homes in our service area and have a proven process.  We protect your floor and furniture, then cut as few holes as possible to remove the Kitec pipes. Our licensed master plumber installs approved PEX pipes and reconnects them so you have running water the first day. Then our professional drywallers repair, sand and repaint the walls to leave your home better than we found it.
