The pipe you probably have

Pre-1970 homes around the old village core were often plumbed with cast-iron stacks and galvanized steel supply, and both rust from the inside out. Subdivisions east of Yonge from the eighties and nineties mostly run copper water lines with black ABS drains. The newest streets in Jefferson and Oak Ridges tend to have PEX home runs off a manifold and a finished lower level with an ejector pit. When you phone, the first two things we ask are the rough age of the house and whether the basement is finished, because that tells us what we are likely to be cutting into.

What happens on a house call

  1. On the phone you tell us the symptom and we narrow down the likely culprits.
  2. At the door, drop cloths go down before any toolbox is opened.
  3. We find the real fault and give you the figure for fixing it.
  4. The work gets done, then proven with a brimming basin, a flush or a hot tap.
  5. The worn part is handed to you to look at, then goes out in our bin.

    6. Four things to do while you wait

    • Locate the main stop: in most Richmond Hill basements it sits on the front wall beside the meter
    • Close the little oval valves under the leaking fixture
    • Snap a photo of the drip or the backup if you can do it safely
    • Keep children and dogs well away from water near plugs and power bars

    Browse the home jobs listed below, or just ring us and explain what you are seeing. The van carries the usual traps, stops, cartridges and couplings, so most household repairs wrap up in one trip.

    Your questions, answered plainly

    Will you come to a house I rent out?

    Yes. We deal with the tenant at the door and the owner on the phone, so both hear the same price and plan before anything is opened.

    Is patching old galvanized pipe worth it?

    A short rusted section can be cut out and replaced, but when the whole house is galvanized, a re-pipe usually costs less over time. You get both figures.
