Leslieville grew up around factories and rail lines, and much of its housing is narrow worker cottages and semis on streets like Pape, Jones and Logan. Many have been renovated top to bottom, but the sewer laterals under the front yards are often still original clay.
The plumbing inside Leslieville houses
- Renovations here often move the kitchen to the back and add a basement bathroom, which means long new drain runs tied into an old main.
- A belly in that old main, or roots from street trees, shows up as a basement floor drain that rises when the new bathroom is used.
What we get called for in Leslieville
- Our Leslieville work leans toward main line clearing, camera inspections before people buy, backwater valves, and tight bathroom rough-ins in semis where the shared party wall limits where new pipes can travel.
