About these answers

These are general answers for Milton homes. Every house is a little different, so read these as rough guidance and phone if your situation does not fit.

Programs, rules and rebates change. Where we mention one, check the current terms with the agency that runs it.

Do you charge to come and look?

We explain any visit or diagnostic charge on the phone before we book, so there are no surprises.

Is Milton water really hard?

Yes. Scale on fixtures and sediment in water heaters are common in Milton, which is why many owners add a softener.

My water heater is a rental. Can you replace it?

We can explain your options, but rental tanks belong to the rental company. Read your contract and ask them about removal or buyout terms before replacing it.

Does a basement bathroom need a permit?

Adding new plumbing fixtures normally calls for a Town of Milton building permit. We can explain what applies to your project.

What is a backwater valve?

A flap fitted in the main drain that shuts if the municipal sewer backs up, keeping sewage out of your basement.

When is a sump pump due for a test?

Ahead of every spring thaw and before the fall rains. Fill the pit from a pail and confirm the pump kicks on and clears it.

Is my new home plumbing covered by warranty?

New Ontario homes carry Tarion warranty coverage for set periods. Report plumbing defects to your builder within the warranty windows.

Can you help with a well?

Yes. Well pumps, pressure tanks and water treatment for rural Milton homes.

What is Kitec and do I have it?

Kitec is a plastic-aluminum pipe system used in many homes built roughly 1995 to 2007, often with orange or blue pipe and brass fittings. We can check.

Do you take emergency calls?

Call the number any time. If we can come, we will tell you when; either way you get first steps on the phone.
