Plumbing for homes in Rutherford

Its streets are lined with 2000s two-storey homes and starter houses, where original furnaces, water heaters and finishes are reaching replacement age.

Plumbing in homes from the 1990s and 2000s is usually copper or PEX, but some have Poly-B that insurers ask about, and original water heaters, sump pumps and fixtures are past their expected life.

In homes with an attached garage, the outdoor tap on the garage wall is a common spot for freeze damage.

In a finished basement a slow leak can hide behind drywall for months; a plumber can check the usual spots before damage spreads.

Common plumbing jobs

  • Leaks, drips and burst pipes
  • Clogged drains and sewer backups
  • Water heater repair and replacement
  • Sump pump and backwater valve work

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.
