Residential plumbing for North York homes

From a 1950s bungalow with a clay lateral to a new Willowdale rebuild with a PEX manifold, the pipes we open are the ones in the house you actually live in.

What we handle inside a house

House calls sort into six families of work, and every family below links to pages that walk through the job.

Drains: kitchen sinks, tubs and showers, laundry tubs and basement floor drains.
Sewer line: camera inspection, root cutting and lateral repair.
Basement protection: backwater valves, sump pits and pumps and battery backups.
Hot water: tank repair, replacement and tankless units.
Supply pipe: leak tracing, burst pipes, re-piping and lead service replacement.
Fixtures: toilet rebuilds, tap swaps, shower cartridges and new basement washrooms.

When a house call can not wait

Water coming up through the basement floor drain.
Every fixture in the house draining slowly at once.
A ceiling stain that grows or drips after a shower upstairs.
A meter needle that keeps creeping although nobody is using water.
No hot water, or a rumbling, popping tank.
A sewer smell in the basement that does not clear.

Plumber's tip: Spreading water? Turn the main valve off before anything else; in a typical North York basement check beside the meter, usually on the street-side wall. Then phone (365) 517-5705.

How a home visit runs

You call. Name the fixture, describe the symptom, say when it started.
We look first. The plumber opens the access point that matters and finds the cause.
You hear the plan. Cause, fix and anything that could change once the pipe is apart, before work starts.
We test and sign off. Flood test, pressure test or pump cycle, then a list of what was replaced.

The housing stock we work in

1950s and 60s bungalows, back-splits and side-splits: cast-iron stacks, galvanized branches, clay laterals with root-prone joints.
Older pockets near Yonge: some homes still on a lead water service from the street.
Rebuilds: PEX manifolds, multiple bathrooms and high-efficiency heaters tied into an old lateral.
Condo suites: in-suite shut-offs, shared risers and building rules on when water can be shut down.

Looking for a property with tenants, a storefront or a kitchen? See commercial plumbing instead.

Your questions on this one

Do you work on condo suites?

Yes, inside the suite. Risers and shared stacks belong to the building, so we coordinate with management before shutting anything down.

Can you tell me the price on the phone?

We explain how a job like yours is priced, yet we only commit to a figure after eyes are on the actual pipe, drain or fixture.
