On the job


Areas
Toronto is an old city underground. Thousands of homes in neighbourhoods like Cabbagetown, the Annex and Riverdale went up before the First World War, and many still carry pieces of their original plumbing: clay sewer laterals with open joints, cast-iron stacks, galvanized steel supply lines and, in some pre-1955 houses, a lead water service pipe running from the street. Newer areas bring different problems, from builder-grade fittings in 1980s subdivisions to shared risers in downtown condo towers.
Add Lake Ontario weather to that mix. Deep January freezes split pipes in exterior walls, spring thaws push groundwater against foundations, and summer cloudbursts can overwhelm combined sewers in older parts of the city. A good plumber here has to know all of it.
Hall rule number one: learn where the main valve lives today, not during a flood. Most local homes hide it near the floor, on the roadside foundation wall, a step from the meter.
When you dial (365) 389-6437, the person who answers asks a few short questions: what you see, where the water is coming from, and whether it is still running. If it is, we walk you through shutting it off. Then we book a visit, and the plumber who arrives starts by finding the cause, not by guessing.
Nothing starts until you have heard the diagnosis, the choices on the table and what each choice would mean for your house. Nothing is cut open or replaced without your say-so. When the job is done it is tested, the work area is cleaned, and you get a plain summary of what was done and anything we noticed that you should keep an eye on.
No upselling parts you can live without, no guessed prices for work we have not looked at, and no credentials we cannot put in your hand. Only certified gas technicians touch gas lines, and any job that calls for a City permit is filed and inspected. Ask any question you like; that is what the phone is for.
Yes. The line is staffed around the clock, because pipes do not wait for business hours. Call (365) 389-6437 any time.
We can explain what affects the cost of a job, but a fair price needs someone to see the problem. You hear the cost before any work starts.
Yes. Condo work usually means coordinating with property management for shut-offs and elevator booking, and we are used to that.
Turn off the main water valve, usually on the basement front wall, and switch off power to any wet area if it is safe to reach the panel. Then call.
For many Toronto basements, yes. It helps stop sewage backing up during heavy storms. The City has offered a subsidy for installation; check the current terms.
Yes. Gas appliance work is carried out by licensed gas technicians, with the permits the job requires.
