The Markham area we serve

We serve the southern part of Markham near Steeles Avenue East, including neighbourhoods around Kennedy Road and Middlefield. Houses are mostly 1980s and later detached homes and townhouses.

Markham is in York Region, so water, sewer and permitting are handled differently from Toronto.

Common issues

  • First and second water heater replacements
  • Plastic drain fittings loosening
  • Hard-water wear on fixtures
  • Busy kitchens clogging drains

Water and sewer notes

Markham's water comes through York Region and the City of Markham, and permits come from the City of Markham. Toronto programs do not apply here.

Permits: Projects such as moving drains or adding a bathroom may need a City of Markham permit.

Services

Homes here were built with modern ABS drains and copper or PEX supply lines, so most problems are about wear rather than old materials: tired toilet parts, faucet cartridges scaled by hard water, and first-generation water heaters giving out. These are all straightforward repairs when caught early, and quicker to schedule than an emergency visit.
