Water Pressure Testing in Orillia & North Bay — Find Out What Your Plumbing Is Really Doing
Low water flow in your shower? Pipes knocking when you flush? Sudden appliance issues?
These are all signs of a pressure problem — and you can’t fix what you don’t measure.
At Poly-B Plumbing, we provide accurate, in-home water pressure testing using calibrated gauges and licensed expertise. Whether you’re dealing with low flow, high pressure, or sudden spikes, we’ll find the cause — and help you fix it right.

When You Need a Pressure Test
Our Testing Process
Step 2
Static & Working Pressure Test
We attach calibrated gauges and test both static pressure (no flow) and working pressure (while taps are running).
Step 3
Component Check
We assess pressure-reducing valves (PRVs), expansion tanks, shutoffs, and water treatment equipment.
Step 4
Diagnosis & Solution Planning
We explain the results in plain terms — and offer next steps if anything needs adjusting or repair.
