Residential plumbing services in Oshawa
Oshawa homes range from older houses near downtown, which may still have cast iron drains and galvanized supply lines, to newer subdivisions in north Oshawa such as Windfields, Taunton and Kedron. We handle leak detection, water filtration, bathtub and shower plumbing, bathroom renovations and drain cleaning in every neighbourhood, from Lakeview, Vanier and Central Oshawa to Samac, Eastdale and Northwood. Oshawa's tap water comes from the Region of Durham's Lake Ontario supply and has a hardness of 125 mg/L, and hard water leaves scale on fixtures, pipes and appliances over time. We also replace aging galvanized supply lines and install and service sump pumps and backwater valves.
Commercial plumbing services in Oshawa
Hayes Plumbing provides commercial plumbing throughout Oshawa, including backflow testing and installation and water and drain line repair for businesses along Simcoe Street, King Street and the Oshawa Centre area. We serve restaurants, retail, offices and industrial facilities.

Oshawa plumbing FAQs
Yes. Hayes Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency plumbing support for Oshawa and nearby Durham Region communities. Call (905) 576-3043 for urgent leaks, backups and plumbing failures. A live operator answers around the clock.
Emergency plumbing, drain cleaning and rooter service, bathroom and accessible bathroom renovations, water filtration and softeners, leak detection and repair, water heaters, sump pumps, backwater valves, fixture and appliance installation and commercial plumbing.
Older houses may still have cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized steel supply pipes. As these age they corrode or let tree roots in, which shows up as slow drains, repeat backups and falling water pressure. A camera inspection of the drain and a look at the supply pipes tell you what your home has before you spend money on repairs.
