01High-rise plumbing

Many residents of L'Amoreaux live in high-rise buildings. In a condo or apartment, the suite plumbing ties into vertical stacks shared with every unit above and below. A clog in a kitchen stack can push water out of a lower suite's sink. We clear suite lines and work with building staff when the stack itself needs attention.

Always notify management before a shut-off affects other suites.

02Detached homes

Houses from the seventies here have copper supply and plastic drains. Repairs focus on fixtures, valves and water heaters.

03Water damage

A small leak in a condo can damage two or three suites below. Shut the suite valve fast and call.

04Detached home checklist

Test the main valve, replace rubber washer hoses, and check the age of the water heater. Look for green crust on copper joints near the heater. These quick checks catch most of the problems we see in seventies houses here.

05Townhouses

Several townhouse complexes sit in the area; confirm with management where the unit plumbing ends.
