Should You Buy a House With Poly B Plumbing? | Your Guy Plumbing & Drainage

If you're considering purchasing a home that has Poly B plumbing and you want to know if it's a good idea or not, then a straightforward answer would be, "Yes!"
The fact that the house has Poly B piping is actually an advantage for you as the potential buyer. You can negotiate with the realtor to have the price of the home lowered since you'll need to replace the plumbing. The cost of removing and replacing Poly B piping is up to $20,000, so this could be the amount that can be deducted from the house's asking price.
Most of the time, the realtor agrees to a price reduction since they also understand that even if they update the plumbing themselves, they will still need to spend the same cost. You can have a brand new plumbing system for your brand new house and have peace of mind knowing that you will not experience plumbing issues in the next 25 years.
So if you want to buy a house with Poly B plumbing, go ahead and do so. Just make sure to negotiate for a lower price so you can replace the plumbing and have a brand new one installed. If they are not willing to negotiate on the price, then you will take on the entire cost of the replacement and need to consider if the home is still worth purchasing.
Poly b plumbing can be replaced with new piping such as PEX pipes that can last up to 50 years. So, if you are asking a professional plumber if you should buy the house or not, they will say yes only if the realtor is willing to negotiate or if you are willing to cover the entire cost of the replacement.
