Plumbing in Kennedy Park

Kennedy Park houses are some of the older ones we open in Scarborough: galvanized supply, cast iron drains and basement fixtures added by past owners.

The neighbourhood

Kennedy Park sits south of Eglinton around Kennedy Road, close to Kennedy Station. Homes are mostly wartime and early post-war bungalows and small dormered homes on slim lots, with some apartments and newer infill. The GO line runs through the area.

Because building started here earlier than in much of Scarborough, older materials turn up more often: lead services, galvanized supply lines and clay laterals.

Common issues

  • Possible lead water services in pre-1955 homes
  • Narrow lots with tight side access for sewer work
  • Galvanized pipe reducing upstairs pressure
  • Basement bathrooms added on original drains

Water and sewer notes

Kennedy Park is on City of Toronto services. Narrow lots can limit equipment access, which we plan around.

Lead check: At the meter, scratch the incoming pipe gently with a key. Shiny silver and soft means lead.

Can you work on a narrow lot?

Yes. We use equipment suited to tight side yards.

Is there City help for lead replacement?

The City has run programs for its side. Check current terms.
