Residential, Commercial, and Multi-Unit Plumbing in Parkdale
A plumbing problem may begin with a dripping valve or just a change in water pressure. In older and multi-unit properties, however, the visible symptom is not always where the problem starts.
Residential Plumbing
We repair plumbing in kitchens and bathrooms. Our plumbers also complete fixture installations, renovation plumbing, and other plumbing projects.
Before recommending a larger repair, we inspect the affected system and look for the cause. This is especially important when the same drain keeps clogging, or a leak appears far from the damaged connection.
Commercial Plumbing
Restaurants, cafés, and other businesses rely on working drains and water lines. When a problem interrupts operations, our plumbers assess the affected area and determine whether it is limited to one fixture or connected to a larger building system.
We plan the work around access, safety, and the needs of the property so the approved repair can be completed with as little disruption as reasonably possible.
Plumbing Services in Parkdale
Cheap Plumber provides repair, and installation for common and complex plumbing problems. Instead of applying the same solution to every property, we consider the symptoms, pipe condition, access, and history of the issue.
Drain Cleaning and Sewer Service
Professional drain cleaning can restore flow, while a sewer camera inspection can show why the problem keeps returning. If the line is damaged, we can explain whether localized repair, pipe lining, or excavation is appropriate.
Leak, Pipe, and Water Line Repair
Visible leaks are not always easy to trace. Water can travel along framing, flooring, or pipe surfaces before it appears on a ceiling or wall.
We repair leaking pipes, damaged water lines, faulty valves, and deteriorated connections. When a pipe section is too corroded or unreliable to repair, replacement may provide a more dependable result.
Basement Flood Protection
A backwater valve helps reduce the risk of sewage flowing back through the building drain. A sump pump removes groundwater collected around the foundation.
The right solution depends on where water enters, how the property is connected to the sewer, and whether the existing equipment is correctly sized and maintained.
Recurring Drain Blockages
One of the most common homeowner frustrations is paying to clear a drain only for the clog to return.
A repeat blockage may be caused by buildup farther down the line, root intrusion, a shifted connection, damaged pipe walls, or poor drainage slope. Another basic cleaning may restore flow temporarily, but it will not correct structural damage.
When the same drain keeps failing, a camera inspection can help determine whether maintenance or repair is the better long-term option.
Tree Roots in Older Sewer Lines
Mature trees can contribute to sewer problems when roots enter cracks or loose pipe joints. Once inside, they catch waste and gradually restrict the line.
Root cutting may reopen the pipe, but it does not seal the entry point. The plumber should also assess the condition of the sewer so the owner understands whether ongoing cleaning, trenchless rehabilitation, or replacement is likely to be needed.
Fixture and Renovation Plumbing
For renovation projects, we can review accessible supply and drain lines before new cabinets, flooring, or fixtures are installed. Finding weak valves, restricted pipes, or unsuitable connections early can reduce the risk of opening finished surfaces later.
Water Backing Up Into a Lower-Level Sink
Residents in apartments and converted houses sometimes notice that a lower sink fills when someone upstairs runs a dishwasher, or kitchen tap.
This often indicates a blockage in a shared drain below the point where the units connect. Plunging the lower sink may not solve the problem. Access to a shared cleanout or another unit may be required.
Hidden Leaks and Unclear Responsibility
In rental and condominium properties, people are often unsure whether a leak belongs to the unit owner, condominium corporation, or neighbouring unit.
A plumbing inspection can help identify the affected fixture or accessible pipe and document what is visible. Responsibility still depends on the lease, condominium declaration, insurance policy, and location of the failed component, but a clear diagnosis gives the parties better information.
Basement Water After Heavy Rain
Water in a basement may come from a sewer backup, failed sump pump, or surface water entering around the building.
The first step is to identify the entry point. Drain and sewer issues require plumbing diagnosis. Foundation seepage or grading problems may require waterproofing or exterior drainage work.
Guessing the source can lead to paying for a repair that does not address the actual problem.
Low Water Pressure and Unexpected Water Use
Low pressure at one fixture may be caused by a blocked aerator, cartridge, or local valve. Low pressure throughout the property may point to a partially closed shut-off valve, corroded supply piping, or a water service problem.
A higher-than-normal water bill may also come from a running toilet or concealed leak. Checking the water meter while all fixtures are off can help show whether water is still moving through the system.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does only one drain smell even though it still works?
A dry trap, buildup near the fixture, or a venting problem may allow odours into the room. Running water can refill an unused trap, but a smell that returns should be inspected.
Should I stop using water when a basement drain backs up?
Yes. Water from toilets, sinks, or washing machines may continue feeding the blocked line. Reducing water use can limit the amount entering the basement until the blockage is assessed.
Can a plumber tell whether a leak is from my unit or a shared pipe?
A plumber can inspect accessible fixtures, branch lines, and visible building piping to narrow down the source. In some cases, access to another unit or shared service area is necessary.
Is sewer camera footage useful before approving a major repair?
Yes. Camera footage can show roots, cracks, or collapsed areas. It helps connect the recommended repair to visible pipe conditions, although some sections may remain inaccessible.
Why does my toilet keep running after the internal parts were replaced?
The replacement parts may be incorrectly adjusted, incompatible with the toilet, or unable to seal because of wear or mineral buildup. Water pressure or a damaged flush valve may also contribute.
Can plumbing work be completed without opening finished walls?
Sometimes. Access may be available through cabinets, or unfinished areas. When a concealed pipe must be reached, the plumber should explain where opening the surface is necessary and how much access is required.
How often should a sump pump be tested?
Test it several times a year and before periods of heavy rain. Confirm that the pump starts, the discharge line is clear, and the alarm or battery backup operates as intended.
What information should I provide when booking emergency service?
Explain where the water is appearing, whether it is clean water or sewage, which fixtures are affected, whether the main shut-off is accessible, and whether water is near electricity. Photos may also help the dispatcher understand the urgency.
