Plumbing in Scarborough homes
Bungalows from the 1950s often still have galvanized supply and clay laterals. Homes built in the 1970s commonly have copper lines with cast iron or first-generation ABS for waste. Townhouse complexes often have shared services managed by a condominium corporation. The Scarborough Bluffs and ravine lands mean some properties have steep grades and groundwater challenges.
Common calls we take here
- Water heater replacement and rental buyouts
- Drain clearing and camera inspections
- Basement bathroom rough-ins
- Sump pump repair
- Backwater valves after storm backups
Townhouse plumbing often stops being yours a few feet past your wall. Check the declaration.
What to check in a Scarborough house
Look at the rating plate on your water heater for its age and owner. Look for a round access lid set in the slab toward the street side; that is where a backwater valve would be. In townhouses, find your declaration and see which pipes are listed as common elements before calling anyone.

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.
