Finishing your basement or adding a secondary suite in Milton? It is the perfect time to make sure your home’s plumbing is ready. A basement you are about to finish is much easier to protect now than after the drywall goes up.

We offer sump pump and battery backup installation, backwater valves, sewer repair and water service upgrades across Milton, from Old Milton and Timberlea to Willmott and Hawthorne Village.

Protection before you finish the basement

Many Milton homes already have a sump pump. Adding a battery backup keeps it running in a power outage, and a backwater valve stops sewer water from coming up through the floor drain. Halton Region pays 50% of eligible backwater valve costs, up to $1,600.

Water services for suites and growing families

A secondary suite or extra bathroom adds demand to your water service. We check your current line and pressure, then recommend whether an upgrade makes sense.

Sewer and drain service

From slow drains to backups, we find the cause with a camera and fix it with the least disruptive method that will last.

Milton plumbing questions

Straight answers to the questions homeowners ask us most. If yours is not here, give us a call.

Do newer Milton homes need a backwater valve?

Many newer homes have a sump pit but no backwater valve. If you are finishing the basement, a valve adds protection against sewer backups, and Halton pays 50% of eligible costs up to $1,600.

Is a water-powered backup sump pump eligible for Halton subsidies?

No. Halton Region does not accept water-powered backup sump pumps. We install battery backup systems.
