Plumbing in Wellesley

 

What’s differentabout Wellesley homes.

Wellesley’s hard water and the many private wells in the township shape a lot of the work we do here.

Water

Hard water, about 15 grains

Wellesley’s municipal water runs about 15 grains per gallon, which is hard on our scale. A 30,000 to 45,000 grain softener suits most homes of two to four. See Region of Waterloo’s water softener facts.

Permits

A permit for plumbing work

Most plumbing work on water, sanitary and storm lines needs a building permit from the Township of Wellesley. We pull the permit and book the inspection as part of the job.

Rural wells

Well water needs its own plan

Homes on a private well around Wellesley can have iron, sulphur or bacteria as well as hardness. Ontario offers free private well water testing, and we treat what the results show: iron and sulphur first, then softening.

Storms

Basement flooding

Heavy storms test sump pumps and floor drains. A battery backup sump pump keeps working when the power goes out.
