Ontario Municipal Utilities Company delivers a blend of purchased surface water and local groundwater, and the mineral content is consistent enough that treatment pays off citywide. We handle both sides — the pipes underground and the water running through them.
Sewer Line Repair for Ontario's Older Laterals
Downtown and the Euclid Avenue Historic District still rely on laterals installed when clay tile was state of the art. Those joints crack, roots from the district's mature trees push in, and backups follow. We camera-inspect every line and show you exactly what's wrong — root masses, offsets, bellies, or collapses — before quoting.
Trenchless pipe bursting replaces the full lateral through small pits, which matters on historic lots where driveways, mature landscaping, and the streetscape itself deserve protection. The new pipe is seamless, so roots have nothing to exploit. Upfront pricing, permits handled, full restoration.
Hard Water Treatment That Protects Your Plumbing
At 11.5 grains hard, Ontario's water shortens water heater life, crusts fixtures, and spots everything. We test at your tap and install whole-home softeners sized to your actual number and household demand — plus carbon filtration for taste and odor, and reverse-osmosis for drinking water.
For Ontario's older homes, we often pair treatment with fixture and valve renewal: new angle stops, supply lines, and cartridges that the minerals already ruined, so the whole system starts fresh.
24/7 Emergency Service Across Ontario
Sewage backups, burst pipes, slab leaks, water heater failures — our emergency line runs 24/7 with live dispatchers covering the Euclid Avenue Historic District, downtown, Creekside, Southeast Ontario, Deer Creek, and North Ontario. Upfront pricing on every call, and techs stocked to resolve most emergencies in one visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are trenchless repairs allowed in the historic district?
Yes — trenchless methods are actually preferred for historic properties because they avoid tearing up mature landscaping, original concrete, and the streetscape. We handle the permits and coordinate with the city's requirements for work near historic resources.
How hard is Ontario's water really?
Utility data puts it near 197 ppm, about 11.5 grains per gallon — firmly hard. That's enough to scale water heaters noticeably, shorten appliance life, and leave spots and buildup on fixtures throughout the house.
My sewer backs up every year — is replacement the answer?
If annual cleanings have become routine, the pipe is telling you it's done — cracked joints, root intrusion, or structural failure that cleaning can't fix. A camera inspection confirms it, and replacement usually costs less than a decade of emergency cleanings.
Do you replace water heaters the same day?
In most cases, yes. We stock common sizes and can usually complete a standard replacement the same day you call, including proper venting, seismic strapping, and haul-away of the old unit.
