Westdale's housing dates largely from the 1920s and 1930s, and much of it now serves as student rental accommodation near McMaster. That combination, old plumbing under heavy use, produces the bulk of the calls here.
Galvanised supply that has narrowed with corrosion, cast-iron stacks, clay laterals, and drum traps under original bathrooms are all common in this stock. Where extra bathrooms were added for rentals, venting frequently was not addressed.
We diagnose before opening anything and explain the repair-versus-replace options plainly, with pricing set on site after inspection.
