Your Reliable Vancouver Plumbing Experts

Vancouver is a city defined by its stunning coastline, lush greenery, and a housing stock that spans well over a century. From the character homes of Kitsilano and the heritage properties along the tree-lined streets of East Vancouver to the sleek glass towers rising throughout Downtown and Yaletown, every building has its own set of plumbing demands. HYDROPRO PLUMBING & WATER LTD provides comprehensive plumbing solutions tailored to the unique challenges that Vancouver homeowners and businesses face every day.

Aging Infrastructure and Galvanized Pipe Replacement

A significant portion of Vancouver's residential housing was built before the 1970s, and many of these older homes still rely on original galvanized steel water lines. Over decades of use, galvanized pipes corrode from the inside out, restricting water flow, discolouring tap water, and eventually failing altogether. If your Vancouver home has low water pressure, rusty water, or frequent pinhole leaks, it is likely time for a water main repair or replacement. Our team specializes in upgrading aging galvanized lines to modern copper or approved plastic piping, restoring full pressure and delivering clean, safe water to your household.

Heavy Rainfall and Drainage Challenges

Vancouver receives an average of over 1,100 millimetres of rain each year, with the wettest months stretching from October through March. That relentless rainfall puts enormous stress on residential drainage systems, particularly in neighbourhoods like Dunbar, Marpole, and South Cambie where older perimeter drains may have deteriorated or become clogged with tree roots and sediment. Backed-up drains, standing water around foundations, and damp crawl spaces are common warning signs that your property needs professional drainage installation and repair. HYDROPRO assesses your entire drainage network, clears blockages, and installs new drain tile systems designed to handle Vancouver's heaviest downpours.

Ocean Proximity and Pipe Corrosion

Vancouver's position along the Pacific coast introduces another factor many homeowners overlook: saltwater influence on underground infrastructure. Properties in the West Side, Point Grey, and along the False Creek waterfront can experience accelerated corrosion on buried metal pipes due to the brackish water table and mineral-rich coastal soils. Our plumbers understand the corrosive conditions present in these areas and recommend materials and installation methods that resist long-term degradation, giving your plumbing system a longer, more dependable lifespan.

High-Density Housing and Multi-Unit Plumbing

Downtown Vancouver, the West End, and the rapidly developing areas around Cambie and Main Street are home to thousands of condominiums, townhouse complexes, and mixed-use buildings. Plumbing in high-density environments requires a specialized approach, as a single leak or sewer line failure can affect multiple units and cause costly water damage. HYDROPRO works with strata councils, property managers, and individual unit owners to diagnose shared plumbing problems efficiently and carry out repairs with minimal disruption to residents.

24/7 Emergency Plumbing Across Vancouver

A burst pipe at 2 a.m. or a sewer backup during a holiday dinner does not wait for business hours. HYDROPRO offers 24/7 emergency plumbing service across every Vancouver neighbourhood, from Commercial Drive to Kerrisdale and everywhere in between. Our dispatch team can have a licensed plumber at your door quickly, equipped with the tools and parts needed to stop the damage and get your system back online. We understand that emergencies are stressful, which is why we provide upfront pricing and clear communication throughout every job.
