The Real Plumbing Challenges of Homes in Saint-François
The housing stock of Saint-François is aging — and most homeowners are unaware of the hidden risks in their plumbing system.
The Problem: Aging Infrastructure in the Historic Core
The Saint-François neighborhood includes some of Laval's oldest properties. The original plumbing systems, often made of lead-soldered copper or galvanized steel, are reaching the end of their useful life. Patch repairs are no longer enough. We offer comprehensive assessments and progressive modernization plans that respect homeowners' budgets while ensuring safety and reliability.
The Problem: Limescale Buildup and Pipe Scaling
Laval's water is known for its hardness, leading to rapid accumulation of limescale deposits in water heaters, faucets, and pipes. In Saint-François, we regularly see reduced flow rates and premature appliance failures due to this problem. We offer descaling services and advice on installing water softeners to protect your plumbing.
The Quebec Construction Code is Not "Guideline" — It's Mandatory
The Quebec Construction Code, Chapter VI – Plumbing, is enforced by the RBQ. Ignoring it is illegal. If you sell or rent, you are responsible for a safe system. We handle all permits and inspections on your behalf — because compliance is not optional.
