Why Markham Homeowners Choose ProFlow for Water Heater Installation & Repair

Every community has unique plumbing characteristics shaped by housing age, soil conditions, and local infrastructure. Our technicians are experienced with the specific challenges that local homeowners face — from the properties in Unionville to the homes in Cathedraltown.

Hard Water Staining and Fixture Damage

Like much of the GTA, Markham receives hard Lake Ontario water. The chalky white deposits on fixtures and glass shower doors are calcium carbonate. Beyond aesthetics, scale buildup inside pipes and water heaters reduces efficiency and shortens equipment life. A water softener paired with annual heater flushing keeps everything running well.

Local Tip

Unionville's protected heritage district contains some of Markham's oldest homes, many dating to the mid-1800s. These properties often have original cast iron drain stacks that have corroded from the inside out over 100+ years. If you hear gurgling drains or notice slow drainage throughout the house, the cast iron stack may need lining or replacement. We use trenchless pipe lining technology to restore heritage home plumbing without damaging walls or floors.

Every ProFlow technician is licensed through the Technical Standards and Safety Authority and carries full insurance coverage. All work meets or exceeds Ontario Building Code requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a water heater last?
A traditional tank water heater typically lasts 8 to 12 years, while a tankless model can last 15 to 20 years with proper maintenance. If your water heater is over 10 years old and showing signs of wear, it's worth considering a replacement before it fails.
Should I switch to a tankless water heater?
