24/7 Toronto Plumbers & Drain Cleaning Specialists Near You
Rosedale Plumbing operates from York, in the west end of Toronto, and has been serving all 44 Toronto neighbourhoods since 2010. From the Victorian-era row houses of Rosedale and Cabbagetown – where 100-year-old cast iron drains are still common – to the glassed-in condo towers of City Place and the Distillery District, we have handled the full spectrum of Toronto plumbing.
Toronto’s housing stock is unusually diverse. The Annex and High Park have pre-war homes with galvanized supply lines that reduce water pressure as they corrode internally. East York’s postwar bungalows have aging ABS drain pipes that crack over time. King West and Queen West commercial buildings require commercial-grade grease trap maintenance and large-diameter sewer service that residential plumbers cannot handle.
We carry the equipment for all of it – camera inspection, hydro-jetting, and PEX repiping – and we dispatch 24/7. Whether it’s a backed-up drain in Leslieville or a burst main in Etobicoke at 2am, our York team reaches you in under 30 minutes.

Toronto Home by Age: What Your Pipes Are Likely Doing
PRE-WAR TORONTO (built before 1945)
Neighbourhoods: The Annex, Rosedale, Cabbagetown, Forest Hill, High Park, Parkdale, Riverdale, East York pre-war pockets.
What we find: Cast iron drain stacks that have been in place 80–100 years. Galvanized steel supply lines narrowing from mineral buildup – the first sign is low pressure at upstairs fixtures. Lead-joint pipe connections in some pre-1930 properties. Clay sewer laterals between the house and the street main, prone to root intrusion from boulevard maples and elms.
What we do about it: Camera inspection on every drain call. Galvanized supply line pressure assessment and staged repiping with PEX (less invasive than copper, faster installation in tight Toronto rowhouse walls). Root intrusion cleared with hydro-jetting, not just snaking – snaking cuts through but does not remove root mass.
POST-WAR TORONTO (1945–1975)
Neighbourhoods: North York bungalow belt, East York subdivisions, Etobicoke mid-century streets, Scarborough post-war tracts.
What we find: Copper supply lines now 50–80 years old and developing pinhole leaks – often showing first at solder joints near fixtures. ABS plastic drain pipes from 1960s–70s builds becoming brittle in cold spots. Sewer laterals transitioning from clay to early ABS in this era.
CONDO-ERA TORONTO (1985–present)
Neighbourhoods: City Place, King West, Liberty Village, Distillery District, Yorkville towers, North York Yonge corridor.
What we find: PVC and PEX systems in generally good condition but with building-level pressure regulation issues, backflow from building sewer systems in stack-heavy towers, and thermostatic mixing valve failures in shower systems. Commercial-grade building plumbing that requires proper licensing and experience with multi-unit systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What permits does a plumber need for work in Toronto?
Most plumbing work in Toronto that affects the building's main drain stack, supply lines, or vent pipes requires a City of Toronto building permit. Rosedale Plumbing is licensed under Ontario regulations and pulls required permits on all applicable jobs - including drain replacements, water heater installations with gas line work, and rough-in plumbing for renovations. Permit fee is typically $200–$400 depending on scope.
How much does drain cleaning cost in Toronto?
All prices quoted upfront before work starts. Call (647) 948-5506.
My Toronto home was built before 1940 . Should I worry about lead pipes?
Possibly. Pre-1940 Toronto homes - particularly in The Annex, Rosedale, Cabbagetown, and High Park - may have lead service connections between the street main and the house foundation. Toronto Water has a lead pipe replacement subsidy program. Internal supply lines in these homes are typically galvanized steel, not lead - but should still be assessed. We offer pipe assessment and repiping consultations for pre-war Toronto homes.
Do I need a backwater valve in my Toronto home?
City of Toronto offers a Basement Flooding Protection Subsidy for backwater valve installation - up to $3,400 per property. Homes in low-lying areas (parts of Leslieville, Riverside, Danforth, and the Don River watershed) are most at risk from sanitary sewer backup. We install backwater valves and can help homeowners navigate the subsidy application.
Why does my Toronto condo lose water pressure on higher floors?
Condo towers use pressure booster pumps to maintain consistent water pressure above the 4th–6th floors. Pressure drops on upper floors typically indicate: a failing booster pump, a partially closed isolation valve, or a PRV (pressure reducing valve) set incorrectly. These are building-system plumbing issues requiring licensed commercial plumbing service, not residential repairs. We handle both.
