HAMILTONDUNDASANCASTERSTONEY CREEKBURLINGTON
Plumbing and heating for Hamilton homes, from 1910 brick in Kirkendall to the backsplit on the Mountain. When a February cold snap hits or the basement floor drain starts gurgling in a July downpour, you get a local person on the phone and a written price in Canadian dollars before we start.
Same labour rate evenings and weekends. Prices in CAD, plus HST.
Burst pipe, furnace that won't light, boiler locked out, sump pump that's stopped running. Call now. Dispatch answers 24 hours a day and will give you an honest arrival time and what to do in the meantime.
Hamilton houses don't care which trade "owns" the problem. A boiler leak is a plumbing job and a heating job. A flooded basement might be the sump pump, the backwater valve or the city sewer. We handle both sides, so nobody is pointing at the other company in your driveway.
Durand, Kirkendall, Strathcona, Crown Point and the streets off Barton and King: century brick homes with low stone basements, cast-iron stacks, galvanized supply lines and, in some cases, the original lead water service. Many still heat with a converted gravity hot-water boiler and cast-iron radiators.
Bungalows and backsplits from the 1950s and '60s, often on their second or third furnace. Copper supply, clay or cast-iron laterals, and basements that were finished long after the plumbing was put in.
Stoney Creek, Ancaster and Burlington subdivisions with high-efficiency furnaces, sump pits, and tankless or rental water heaters. Different problems, same need for someone who answers.
We give you an arrival window and the diagnostic fee up front. In an emergency, we give you an honest ETA.
Shoe covers on at the door. We find the problem and show you, with photos of anything behind a wall or inside an appliance.
A price in CAD for each option, before any work. If a part has to be ordered, we tell you how long.
Work area cleaned up, old parts hauled away if you want, invoice by email.
Maintenance plan
One visit a year, before heating season, to tune your furnace or boiler, test your sump pump and battery backup, and check your backwater valve. Plan members get priority dispatch on no-heat calls and a reminder before the first cold snap. Ask us what's included for your type of system.
These are sample reviews written for this demo. They are not from real customers.
Boiler locked out on a minus 18 night. They were here from the lower city in under an hour and had the radiators ticking by midnight.
Our Stoney Creek sump pump died in a spring storm. They swapped it, added a battery backup, and explained the backwater valve option without pushing it.
Rental water heater in a Westcliffe bungalow. They walked me through the buyout question in plain English before I decided anything.
No. Evenings, weekends and holidays are billed at the same labour rate as weekdays. There is a diagnostic fee, and dispatch tells you what it is on the phone before we drive over. Every repair after that is quoted in writing, in CAD, before we start. Prices are plus HST.
Yes. Many Hamilton homes rent their tank. We can diagnose it, and if it needs replacing, we'll explain your options, including what to ask your rental company about returning or buying out the tank. You decide with the numbers in front of you, not under pressure.
Yes. A lot of lower-city and Dundas homes still have cast-iron radiators on a boiler that was converted from coal or oil decades ago. We service, repair and replace these boilers, bleed and balance radiators, and can quote modern high-efficiency boilers that work with the existing radiators.
Yes. If your house was built before the mid-1950s, the water service from the street may be lead. We can check where it enters the basement and quote replacing your side of the line. Ask us about your city's program, since some municipalities coordinate or help with the public side.
