Vancouver Bathroom Renovation

As a Vancouver plumbing professional I do a lot of bathroom renovations in the Lower Mainland.
One thing that always surprises me is where home owners and contractors will try to save money during a renovation.

Too many times I have seen Vancouver contractors
swap out a tub and tiles but neglect to replace old corroded pipes!  Many times, emphasis is put on aesthetics but little concern is shown for what is behind the walls. Unfortunately, when it comes to plumbing, out of sight should not be out of mind.

The most opportune time to upgrade plumbing is during a renovation when plumbing fixtures, tiles and drywall are being removed. Replacing the old shower valve, deteriorated pipe fittings and drainage will ensure that you've got reliable plumbing that is maintenance free.

While renovating, if you find that your current system is rather worn, you should demand of your Vancouver contractor that it be replaced.  Don't leave old plumbing in place that you will have to service later as problems arise. Cutting corners on the plumbing in your bathroom will cost you a lot down the road.
