The type of leak found in an Etobicoke home depends almost entirely on when it was built. Each era has different pipe materials — and different failure patterns.
Post-war homes in Humber Valley and Islington Village were built with galvanized steel supply lines now 70–80 years old. At this age, galvanized supply has typically lost substantial bore to rust scaling, produces discoloured water, and is at high risk of joint failure. These homes need a written assessment of the supply line condition — not just a visual check.
Mid-century residential areas across Etobicoke used copper supply lines now 50–60 years old. Toronto's Lake Ontario water supply contains minerals that accelerate pitting corrosion over decades. Pinhole leaks inside finished walls are the most common failure pattern — often going undetected for months before the water bill reveals the problem.
Later Etobicoke developments used copper or early PEX. Copper from the 1980s is now 40–45 years old and approaching the age where corrosion-related failures become common. PEX homes in this area typically leak at manifold fittings, shutoff valves, and fixture connections rather than mid-pipe.
From a pinhole leak in a copper wall line to a burst supply fitting — same-day leak detection, written quote before work starts, no hidden fees.
Pinhole leaks in copper supply lines, slab leaks, and wall leaks — found without unnecessary demolition. Midtown Plumbing uses pressure testing and thermal scanning to locate the source before any wall is opened.
Leak detectionOnce a leak is found, the damaged section is repaired or replaced using code-compliant copper, PEX, or push-fit fittings. Written quote issued before repair begins — the price on the quote is the price on the invoice.
Pipe repairA burst supply line or sudden flood needs an immediate response. Midtown Plumbing serves Etobicoke from Vaughan with same-day emergency service. Call 647-778-9411 now — Mon–Sun 7 AM–9 PM.
Emergency plumberA homeowner in Islington Village noticed a water bill increase of $95 across four consecutive months. No fixtures were dripping. A written quote was provided before inspection began. Pressure isolation testing located the leak to the east wing of the supply system. Thermal imaging found a pinhole in the 1″ copper hot supply inside the second-floor bathroom wall — the home was built in 1958 with galvanized originally replaced in copper in 1981. Repaired in one visit.
This is a common pattern across Etobicoke homes from the mid-century era. A water bill that climbs month after month — with no visible cause — is often a pinhole leak hiding behind drywall. The longer it goes undetected, the more damage accumulates. A written quote before inspection means there are no surprises at any stage.

I had a problem with the valve just above the furnace for the waterline that feeds the humidifier. I did a Google search saw Andrew's website called him. He came over within an hour or so fixed it permanently. Replaced my saddle valve with a real valve. Did an excellent job friendly service and explained other things in the furnace room. Highly recommended you use Andrew.
Andrew was very prompt, we called him, and he came in less than 20 minutes to replace our kitchen sink faucet. He did a great job, explained everything, cleaned the space after everything was done. Our kitchen sink is now fully functional. I would recommend his service to anyone.
