The Bullock area
Named after Bullock Drive, this part of central Markham grew alongside Markville Mall in the 1980s. Detached homes, linked houses and townhouse complexes share the streets with parks and schools. Many homeowners have lived here for a long time, while younger families are buying in and renovating.
Townhouse complexes
In many complexes here, a condominium corporation handles common pipes and the homeowner handles everything inside their unit. Water lines may pass through neighbouring units, and a shut-off may serve more than one home. Before any work, it helps to know who controls which valve. We can help sort that out with management.
Forty-year-old plumbing
Homes from the 1980s now have plumbing about forty years old. Some of it is fine. Some is wearing out quietly. A walk-through inspection that checks valves, visible pipes, the water heater, toilets and drains can help you plan repairs over the next few years rather than face them all in emergencies.
From the van: Learn which valve feeds your unit, even when it sits in a common room.
Local note. Many split-levels from the 1970s have copper supply and older cast iron drains under the slab.
