Glad to see a plumbing shop in the directory — this is the season for it. Spring thaw in the GTA kicks up two waves of calls every April: hairline copper splits that only show once the cold-side pressure returns to normal, and sump pumps that worked all winter but picked up grit and stalled the first time groundwater actually hit the pit.
A couple of questions for the thread, because homeowners reading this always want to know what to do before they need to call anyone:
What is your team’s default recommendation on sump-pump backup batteries in 2026? We have been steering clients toward 12V AGM with a 24-hour inverter rather than standalone battery backup pumps, mostly because the runtime math is better for a 20-minute storm. Curious what you are specifying.
And on eco-friendly — are you finding real uptake on low-flow fixture replacement from insurance-prompted jobs, or is it still mostly reno-driven? In Toronto we see maybe one in four leak-claim visits convert into a fixture update, but that may be a GTA-specific pattern.
For anyone here shopping for a plumber: the two questions that separate a pro from a truck-and-a-tailgate are “do you carry a camera scope” and “will you quote in writing before starting.” Everything else is style.
