Plumbers in Ritchie, Edmonton

Ritchie is a south-side neighbourhood east of Old Strathcona that has become a popular spot for local shops and cafes.
Plumbing for homes in Ritchie
Older cottages and bungalows are being joined by a wave of new infill houses and garden suites.
Homes this old can still have galvanized steel supply lines and cast-iron drains that corrode from the inside and cut water pressure. If you're renovating, ask a plumber to check what's behind the walls first.
If you're planning infill or a garden suite, a plumber can tell you early whether the existing water and sewer lines can serve a second home.
If you want water or a drain in a detached garage, the line has to run below Edmonton's deep frost line, so plan it with a plumber.
In a finished basement a slow leak can hide behind drywall for months; a plumber can check the usual spots before damage spreads.

Seasonal tip for Edmonton
Edmonton winters freeze outdoor taps and pipes in exterior walls, so shut off and drain hose bibs before the first hard frost, and test your sump pump before the spring melt.
