Plumbing in Ajax homes
The original wartime and postwar houses south of Highway 2 often have small basements, older galvanized supply and clay laterals. Subdivisions from the 1980s and 1990s north of the 401 have copper and ABS. Newer homes in the north have PEX. Lakeshore neighbourhoods see higher groundwater and occasional basement water.

What to check in an Ajax house
In older homes south of Highway 2, look for galvanized pipe near the meter and check the floor drain for slow draining. In 1990s homes, find the water heater age. Clear leaves from window wells and make sure downspouts discharge away from the house.
Water that pools beside the foundation in October is in the weeping tile by November.

Local note. Before anyone digs near the property line, Ontario One Call locates buried utilities. The city or region owns the sewer and water connection past your property line, so ask them first if the trouble is out at the street.
