Water Main Repair
Your water main is the pressurised line running from the city shut-off at the property line into your home. Unlike a drain, it is always under pressure, so a fault does not wait for you to run a tap. It leaks continuously.
The usual culprits in Toronto are old galvanised or lead service lines, corrosion at the joints, ground movement, and freeze damage on shallow runs. The first sign is often a water bill that jumps for no reason, or a soft, permanently damp patch in the lawn.
Flood Guard locates, repairs and replaces water mains across Toronto and the GTA, including lead line replacement and trenchless options that leave your driveway intact.
Acoustic and pressure testing to pinpoint the leak before anyone lifts a shovel.
Replacing old lead and galvanised service lines with modern copper or PEX.
Pulling a new line through the old route where conditions allow, sparing your driveway.
A burst main is an emergency. We are available 24/7, 365 days a year.
Low pressure is often a partially collapsed or heavily scaled service line, not the city supply.
Water main work needs a permit and a city inspection. We arrange both.
Flood Guard
Watch for an unexplained rise in your water bill, a drop in pressure at every fixture rather than just one, damp or unusually green patches on the lawn between the street and the house, water pooling on the driveway, discoloured or rusty water, or the sound of running water when every tap is off. Any of these warrant a look. A water main leak does not fix itself and the ground it saturates is the ground your foundation sits on.
Flood Guard
A single clean break on an otherwise sound copper line can be repaired. A corroded galvanised or lead line that has already failed once will fail again, and the sensible answer is replacement. We give you an honest assessment either way, with a written price, and we will tell you plainly when a repair is the better value. Where the run allows we use trenchless replacement, pulling the new line through the existing route so your driveway, walkway and landscaping stay intact.
Flood Guard
Many Toronto homes built before the mid-1950s still have lead service lines. The City replaces its portion up to the property line, and the homeowner is responsible for the section from there into the house. Replacing only one half leaves you with lead in the ground. We handle the private-side replacement, coordinate the timing with the City where we can, and pull the permits the work requires.

A water bill that rises with no change in use, low pressure at every fixture, or a permanently damp patch in the lawn between the street and the house are the three classic signs.
Often not. Where the route and soil allow, we replace the line trenchlessly by pulling the new pipe through the old route, needing only a small pit at each end.
The City is responsible up to the property line. The section from there into your house is the homeowner’s. We handle the private side.
A straightforward repair is usually a single day. A full replacement typically takes one to two days depending on the run length and the surface being crossed.
Yes. Water main work requires a permit and a city inspection, and we arrange both as part of the job.
