Restore Your Walls and Ceilings After Poly B Pipe Replacement

Replacing outdated Poly B (polybutylene) piping is a smart move for protecting your home from leaks and future water damage—but it often leaves your walls and ceilings in rough shape. After the plumbers finish the pipe replacement, they leave behind dozens of access holes that need professional repair.

That’s where Gordon Drywall and Painting comes in. We specialize in drywall patching and ceiling repairs after Poly B plumbing upgrades. Our team restores your walls and ceilings to their original condition—smooth, seamless, and paint-ready.

Clean, professional repairs that blend into your home

We don’t just patch the holes—we restore your walls and ceilings to look like new. Every repair is completed with care and precision, so you won’t see seams, cracks, or uneven finishes. The goal is a flawless, invisible repair that blends right into your home’s existing surfaces.

Accurate texture matching for walls and ceilings

Matching textures like knockdown, orange peel, or popcorn takes experience and a practiced hand. Our team is trained in blending new patches seamlessly into the existing surface so that the repaired areas are virtually undetectable, even on textured ceilings.

Fast turnaround so you can get back to normal quickly

We know how disruptive plumbing and drywall work can be. That’s why we work efficiently and on schedule—most Poly B repair jobs are completed within just 3-5 days. We aim to get in, do the job right, and leave your home tidy and restored.

Available for small patch jobs or full-house repairs

Whether your plumber made two holes or twenty, we scale our service to fit the job. We’re equipped for quick patch-and-paint or full-house drywall and ceiling restoration projects. No job is too small, and every job gets our full attention.

What Is Poly B and Why Does It Require Drywall Repair?

Poly B was a type of plastic plumbing used in homes from the late 1970s through the 1990s. Many homeowners are now replacing it due to its tendency to fail over time. But to access the pipes behind your walls and ceilings, plumbers need to cut multiple openings throughout your home.

Once the new plumbing is in place, those holes are not part of the plumber’s job to fix. That’s where a professional drywall team is essential. We step in after the plumbing is complete to patch, retexture, and repaint the affected areas—making it look like nothing ever happened.

Our Poly B Drywall Repair Process

1. On-Site Assessment

We begin with a walkthrough of all affected areas—walls, ceilings, utility rooms, or bathrooms. We document each hole and provide a clear quote for patching and finishing.

2. Drywall Patching and Repair

We cut clean edges around each opening and install new drywall patches that align with the existing surfaces. Every joint is taped, mudded, sanded, and prepared for paint.

3. Painting & Texturing

We finish each drywall patch repair with primer. Then the affected ceilings get painted fully to match the existing color. The Textured or Popcorn ceilings would then get matched/blended completely. All the affected walls get color matched and painted fully from corner to corner. This all makes it so you can’t even tell there was ever a hole there to begin with.

"I highly recommend Gordon Drywall and Painting for any painting and drywall needs you may have. From meeting with Shawn, to setting up appointments, to the completion of the job, I was very impressed. Steve did an excellent job of repairs to the drywall, and both he and Becky did an absolutely amazing job of painting. I will certainly have Gordon Drywall and Painting back to complete the upper part of my home. They are just excellent in what they do. Thank you Shawn, Becky, and Steve for such an incredible job."

Excellent service. The job was repairing and repainting kitchen ceiling after changing the lighting. Very professional and very pleasant doing business with Shawn at Gordon Drywall, who arranged and quoted the job. Beckie did a great job on site and the ceiling looks better than new! Cleaned up when the job was done and left the place spotless. Glad I called Gordon Drywall for this job and I would recommend this business.

Excellent experience! Detailed quote, clear timelines and skilled workers/crafters who all came when scheduled and delivered on time. Went out of their way to help us re-finish a basement room that had been damaged due to upgrades in electric and plumbing. Shawn clearly cares about the work done and the health of his team. He helped us navigate asbestos testing - negative thank goodness - before proceeding. Exceeded expectations.

Most smaller homes can be completed in 3-5 days, depending on the number of access points. We’ll give you a clear timeline based on your walkthrough.

Yes. Whether you have knockdown, popcorn, or smooth ceilings, we’re experienced in matching and blending ceiling textures so the patchwork is invisible.

What if I want to repaint everything instead of patching?

We’re happy to provide a quote for full wall or ceiling repaints if you want to take the opportunity to refresh your home’s look beyond just patching.
