What a condo repipe costs in Vancouver
Replacing Kitec in a Vancouver condo suite typically costs $5,000–$12,000, depending mainly on bathroom count and access. A coordinated whole-building programme brings that down materially per suite — often 15–30% — which is why it's worth knowing what your strata is planning before you arrange your own.
