Brand-new homes
Most homes here were constructed in the 2010s and 2020s: large detached houses, semis and townhouses, all with modern plumbing. Expect PEX supply, ABS drains, sump pits, and frequently a tankless heater or a high-efficiency tank with plastic venting. Many basements are unfinished, with rough-ins waiting for a future bathroom.
What goes wrong in new homes
- Construction debris in drains: drywall mud, grout and bits of pipe.
- Loose fittings under sinks that start dripping once the house is lived in.
- Toilet flanges set too low for the final floor height, leading to rocking.
- Exterior hose bibs without a proper slope to drain, which split in winter.
- Sump discharge pointed at the wrong spot on a raw lot.

Warranty timing
New houses in Ontario come with warranty coverage through Tarion, which has specific forms and time limits. If you notice a plumbing defect, note it and report it within the deadlines; check Tarion for current rules. We can assess what you are seeing and describe it clearly so the builder's team has what they need.
Rural edges
A few older properties near Teston still sit on wells and septic systems. If your house is one of them, we handle the plumbing inside and work around the private system. Mixing a new subdivision with old rural properties also means some lots slope steeply toward watercourses, which matters for sump pump setup.
Nearby
Teston is north of Maple and west of Patterson, with Kleinburg to the west and King City to the north.
Questions from callers
Do you work on homes still under warranty?
Yes. Repairs may affect warranty claims, so check with the builder first if possible.
Why does my new toilet rock?
Often a low flange. An extension ring and new seal fixes it.
Will you complete the basement rough-in for me?
Yes, once permits are in place.
