What we see in Markham
The Rouge River and its tributaries, including German Mills Creek, run through Markham. Heritage homes in Unionville and Markham Village sit close to the river, and older homes there need care when drying: plaster walls, original wood floors and old foundations don't dry like new drywall.
Markham's Private Plumbing Protection Rebate is one of the more generous in York Region, up to $5,000, and it needs pre-approval before work starts. We give you an itemized quote you can submit, with each measure on its own line.
Newer areas like Cornell, Berczy and Cathedraltown are mostly homes built from the 1990s on. For those, we see more burst supply lines and appliance leaks than overland flooding, and more basement finishing.
