Emergency PlumbingWhen water is coming through a ceiling or up through a floor drain, act fast: shut the water off, keep people away from anything electrical, then send an urgent request.Leak DetectionNot every leak makes a puddle. Many show up as a stain, a musty smell, peeling paint or a utility bill that suddenly climbs, and the source can be well away from the mark.Drain CleaningA slow bathroom sink is usually hair close to the drain. Water coming up a basement floor drain when the washer empties, or every fixture draining slowly at once, points to a blockage further down the line.Sewer Lateral RepairThe sewer lateral is the pipe carrying everything from your house to the municipal sewer. In older parts of Greater Victoria many laterals are clay or cast iron and well past their expected life.Hot Water TanksMost Greater Victoria homes have a gas or electric hot water tank in the basement, crawl space or a utility closet. When the hot water runs cold or a puddle appears, here's what to check first.Poly-B Replacement & RepipingPoly-B, a grey plastic supply pipe, went into many BC homes built from the mid-1980s to the late 1990s. Many insurers now ask about it, and some won't cover a home that still has it. Older homes may have galvanized steel or ageing copper instead.Perimeter Drains & Sump PumpsAlmost all of Victoria's rain falls between fall and spring. When it does, a working perimeter drain and sump keep that water away from the foundation and out of the basement.Fixtures & RenovationsFrom a tap that won't stop dripping to plumbing a new secondary suite, fixture work and renovations are the day-to-day side of plumbing in Greater Victoria.
