Plumbing for Old Ottawa East & Sandy Hill homes
Old Ottawa East, Sandy Hill and Lowertown hold some of the oldest housing in the city, much of it more than 100 years old and many converted to multi-unit rentals. That means original cast iron, clay laterals, galvanized supply lines, and plumbing that has been added to by several owners over the decades.
What we see most here
- Original cast iron stacks and building drains
- Lead or galvanized water services
- Shared or awkward drain layouts in converted houses
- Sewer backups in basements with low floor drains
What Old Ottawa East & Sandy Hill homeowners call us for

- Cast iron drain & stack replacement: Stacks and drains replaced in occupied homes and rentals with minimal disruption
