House plumbing we take apart and put back
Most residential calls start in one of four places: a fixture that will not drain, a heater that will not keep up, water where it should not be, or a basement that took on water in the last storm. Every one of those has a short list of usual causes, and a plumber who has opened hundreds of GTA basements can usually narrow it down over the phone.
- Drains and sewers: from the basin trap down the stack to the clay or cast-iron lateral under the lawn
- Hot water: tank heaters, tankless units, venting, anodes, relief valves
- Leaks and supply: pinhole copper, frozen lines, galvanized runs, lead services, pressure problems
- Fixtures: hose bibs, laundry boxes, disposals, shower valves, faucets and toilets
- Flood protection: sump pits and pumps, backwater valves, downspout and grading advice
Housing stock we know from the inside
A 1920s semi in the west end, a 1960s bungalow in Scarborough and a 2010s townhouse in Brampton each hide different plumbing. Knowing the era tells us what to expect before the van arrives.
- Pre-war Toronto: lead water services, cast-iron stacks, clay laterals with root-prone joints
- Post-war suburbs: galvanized supply, cast-iron under the slab, early ABS in additions
- Newer subdivisions: PEX manifolds, sump pits, power-vented heaters, tight mechanical rooms
From phone call to tested repair
- Phone first. Say where the leak or backup is; while water still flows, we guide you to the valve that stops it.
- We diagnose first with a meter reading, a trap pulled or a camera run before anything is cut.
- You approve the fix once you have heard what is wrong and what it involves.
- We test it with water through the repair before tools go back in the van.

Common questions
Will you come to a condo unit?
We do. Within the unit we look after fixtures, drains to the stack and the unit shut-offs. Risers and shared stacks usually belong to the condo corporation, so we coordinate with management when the problem is in common pipe.
Can you tell me over the phone whether it is urgent?
Usually. Moving water, sewage at a floor drain or no heat-source venting are urgent. A slow sink or a dripping tap can wait for a booked visit.
