Plumbing in North York homes
Postwar bungalows and side-splits make up much of the housing stock. Many have original galvanized supply, cast-iron and clay drains, and foundation drains tied to the sanitary sewer. Rebuilt homes on the same lots are modern inside but connect to the same older municipal sewers. Condo towers around North York Centre bring suite-level jobs.
Common calls we take here
- Basement backups and backwater valves
- Galvanized repiping in bungalows
- Water heater replacement
- Sump pump installation after downspout disconnection
- Condo drain and leak calls
Ravines along the West and East Don branches affect drainage in neighbourhoods like York Mills and Bayview Village.
What to check in a North York house
Look for the white or grey galvanized pipe near the water meter. Check the sump pit, if your downspouts were disconnected, and pour a bucket in to see the pump start. If your house was rebuilt on an older lot, ask whether the lateral to the street was replaced at the time or kept.
Getting to you
Most homes have driveways, which makes it easy for a truck with a camera and machine. Call (365) 387-8531.

Local note. Before anyone digs near the property line, Ontario One Call locates buried utilities. The city or region owns the sewer and water connection past your property line, so ask them first if the trouble is out at the street.
Common questions
Why does my bungalow have low pressure?
Original half-inch galvanized pipe narrows with scale over decades. Repiping usually solves it.
