From the counter

Different municipality, different rules

Thornhill falls under York Region municipalities, not the City of Toronto. Permit offices, water billing and any subsidy programs differ from Toronto. If you are applying for a program, check with your own city.

Grey plastic pipe? Some homes of this era used polybutylene supply lines. If you see grey flexible pipe, have it checked; it has failed often in the field.

Homes of the 70s and 80s

Copper supply and ABS drains are typical. Original fixtures, stop valves and water heaters are often due. Replacing them before they fail avoids most emergency calls.

Crossing the line

Your water bill, permit office and any rebate program come from Vaughan or Markham, and which one depends on your side of Yonge. The plumbing itself is the same Ontario code. We confirm the municipal details that apply before any permit-related work starts.
