Pickering neighbourhoods we reach

We serve the western part of Pickering, including areas like Rosebank, West Shore and Amberlea. Homes range from 1960s and 1970s detached houses near the lake to 1980s and 1990s subdivisions further north.

Pickering is in Durham Region, so the water, sewer and permit rules differ from Toronto's.

Common issues

  • Sump pumps on lots near creeks and the lake
  • Water heaters due for replacement
  • Aging fixtures and valves
  • Laterals affected by mature trees

Water and sewer notes

Pickering's water and sewer services are provided through Durham Region, and building permits come from the City of Pickering. City of Toronto subsidies do not apply here.

Different rules: Check the Region of Durham for any local programs before planning flood protection.

Services we offer

Homes near Frenchman's Bay and the lake can see high groundwater after heavy rain, while the northern subdivisions deal more with aging builder fixtures. Either way, the calls are familiar to us from the Scarborough side of the river.

Nearby

West Rouge and Rouge sit just across the river.
