FAQs
Why should I consider upgrading the existing plumbing pipes in my Elora home?
Many homes in Elora still have galvanized steel, poly-B, or aging copper lines that are prone to leaks, corrosion, and mineral buildup. Upgrading eliminates hidden leak risks, restores full water pressure, improves water quality, and can lower insurance premiums. A modern system also adds resale value and ensures compliance with today’s Ontario Building Code.
Which pipe materials do you recommend for replacements and what are their advantages?
For most retrofit projects we install CSA-approved PEX-a or Type-L copper. PEX-a is flexible, freeze-resistant, and quieter, making it ideal for weaving through finished walls with minimal cuts. Type-L copper is extremely durable, fire-resistant, and preferred for exposed runs or high-temperature lines. Both are lead-free, corrosion-resistant, and backed by 25-year manufacturer warranties.
How long does a typical pipe upgrade take from start to finish?
A targeted kitchen or bathroom re-pipe can be completed in a single day. Whole-home upgrades for an average 2-storey, 3-bedroom house usually take 2–4 days, including pressure testing and municipal inspection. We create a detailed schedule before work begins and keep one bathroom operational wherever possible.
Will my walls and floors be torn apart during the upgrade?
No. We use minimally invasive techniques such as flexible PEX fishing, pipe-pulling, and strategic access panels. Small drywall openings are made only where necessary, and our team patches, tapes, and primes those areas when the plumbing is finished. Floors and finishes are protected with drop cloths and vacuumed daily to keep your home livable throughout the project.
What does a pipe upgrade cost in Elora and do you offer financing?
Costs vary by home size, pipe material, and accessibility, but most projects fall between $4–$8 per sq. ft. (roughly $2,500–$9,000 for a typical residence). We provide a fixed-price quote after an on-site assessment. Interest-free financing for up to 12 months is available, and we help clients apply for any local water-efficiency rebates.
Are your pipe upgrades code-compliant and covered by warranty?
Absolutely. All installations follow the Ontario Building Code, CSA standards, and Wellington County permit requirements. We arrange inspections, provide detailed documentation, and register manufacturer warranties. Labour is guaranteed for 10 years and materials for 25 years, giving you long-term peace of mind.
