Neighbourhood overview
Legacy is a residential area with detached homes, semis and townhouses near the Rouge valley trails. Many homes are 20 to 30 years old and are going through their first round of major updates.
Close to the Rouge
Being near a valley can mean higher groundwater in spring. Sump pumps may run more often than in homes on higher ground. Make sure your pump has enough capacity, a working check valve and a discharge line that drains away from the house.
Updating 1990s homes
Homes from this period often have builder-grade fixtures that are now worn. Replacing faucets, toilets, supply lines and shut-off valves all at once can improve reliability and water efficiency. We can plan a phased update if you prefer to spread costs.
From the van: When you replace one bathroom faucet, check the other fixtures in the same room. Similar age means similar wear.
Local note. Newer homes often have PEX and backwater valves installed under building code changes.
Service area
We serve Legacy and nearby areas around Markham Road, 14th Avenue and the Rouge valley edge.
Many Legacy owners are now finishing basements that were left bare by the original buyers. Before framing goes up, it is worth confirming the sump pit, cleanout and main shut-off will all stay reachable behind removable panels.
It is also a good moment to camera the main drain, while nothing is covered.
