Licensed Drain and Plumbing Contractors in Mississauga
Not all basement water problems begin at the foundation walls. Many start beneath the floor, in the drains and pipes you never see. In Mississauga, where heavy summer storms can overload sewers and many established neighbourhoods still rely on aging clay and cast iron lines, a damaged sewer line, worn-out water service or missing backwater valve can quickly turn into basement flooding and costly repairs.
As an extension of our waterproofing and underpinning work, AquaMen provides licensed drain and plumbing services across Mississauga, including Port Credit, Streetsville, Cooksville, Clarkson, Lakeview, Erin Mills, Meadowvale and Malton. Whether you're dealing with a drainage problem or preparing for a basement renovation, our team handles the work from diagnosis to final inspection, so you never have to manage separate trades.

Sewer Drain Repair & Replacement in Mississauga
Your main sewer drain carries wastewater from your home to the municipal sewer in the street. Many older Mississauga homes, especially in established areas such as Port Credit, Lakeview and Cooksville, still have clay or cast iron sewer pipes that crack, shift and attract tree roots over time. The warning signs are hard to miss: slow drains, gurgling sounds, sewage odours and water backing up through a floor drain.
We repair and replace damaged sewer drains and sewer laterals on Mississauga properties. When we're already excavating for waterproofing or underpinning, we do the drain work at the same time, so you pay for the digging once, not twice.
Plumbing Rough-In for Basement Renovations in Mississauga
Many Mississauga homeowners finish, lower or underpin their basements to add living space, a bathroom or a secondary suite. If that is your plan, the plumbing must be planned before the concrete floor goes in. We install complete plumbing rough-ins for new basement bathrooms, laundry rooms and kitchenettes, including drain lines, vents and connections, and we handle the permit and inspection process with the City of Mississauga.
When you lower a basement, the existing drains usually need to be lowered too. With one team handling both the structure and the plumbing, there are no gaps between contractors and no delays waiting on another trade.
Sewer Camera Inspection in Mississauga
You can't fix what you can't see. A sewer camera inspection (also called a drain camera inspection) lets us look inside your drain pipes and pinpoint cracks, blockages, tree roots, collapsed sections and other hidden problems, with no digging required.
We recommend a camera inspection before buying an older home in Mississauga, before a basement renovation, or after any sewer backup with no clear cause. It tells us exactly what's wrong and where, so we can recommend the right repair and you only pay for the work you need.
Backwater Valve Installation in Mississauga
During heavy rainfall, overloaded municipal sewers can push wastewater back toward your home and up through your basement floor drain. A backwater valve stops this. It stays open during normal use, so wastewater flows out freely, and closes automatically when the sewer backs up, keeping sewage out of your home. Depending on your property, protection may involve a sanitary backwater valve, a storm lateral backwater valve, or both.
For many Mississauga homes, a backwater valve is the most effective protection against sewer backup and basement flooding. We install them under a City of Mississauga building permit and to Ontario Building Code requirements, and we recommend adding an alarm that tells you when the valve closes so you can stop using water until the sewer clears.
Good news: Mississauga homeowners may qualify for rebates from both Peel Region and the City of Mississauga. See the details below.
Water Service Line Replacement & Upgrades in Mississauga
Your water service line is the underground pipe that brings fresh water from the Region of Peel's main in the street into your home. In many older properties, it is undersized, corroded or past its service life, leading to low water pressure, discoloured water and an unreliable supply.
AquaMen replaces and upgrades aging water service lines to restore strong, reliable water flow, which is especially important if you're adding a basement bathroom or a secondary suite. When we combine the upgrade with waterproofing, excavation or underpinning work, we do it in one visit, with less disruption to your yard and schedule.
Basement Flooding Rebates: Peel Region & City of Mississauga
Protecting your basement from sewer backups may cost less than you expect.
Two programs can reduce the cost of flood protection for Mississauga homeowners:
one from Peel Region and one from the City of Mississauga.
City of Mississauga Basement Flooding Prevention Rebate
The City of Mississauga's Basement Flooding Prevention Rebate offers up to $7,500 toward eligible flood-prevention measures, such as a storm lateral backwater valve (which requires disconnecting your downspouts). It is available to registered owners of detached homes, semi-detached homes, duplexes and townhouses in Mississauga. The process starts with a consultation request through 311 and ends with final approval after installation.
Peel Region Sanitary Backwater Valve Rebate
Peel Region offers a rebate of 60% of the invoiced cost of installing a sanitary backwater valve, up to $1,500 including tax. It applies to single-family homes, semi-detached homes and townhomes where the valve was installed by a licensed contractor after July 16, 2024.
How AquaMen Helps You Claim Your Rebate
We make the rebate process simple. These programs typically require a building permit, a licensed contractor, a passed municipal inspection and detailed, itemized invoices, and they limit repeat rebates for the same property. AquaMen holds the required licenses, arranges the permit and inspection, and provides the documentation you need to submit your claim with confidence.
Complete Basement Protection in Mississauga, from the Ground Up
Effective basement protection goes beyond the foundation walls. Drainage, sewer connections and water supply all affect how well your basement performs and how long it stays dry.
With waterproofing and underpinning at the heart of our expertise, AquaMen brings your entire basement project together under one experienced, licensed team.
Drain & Plumbing FAQ: Mississauga
The most common signs of a damaged sewer line are slow drains in several fixtures, gurgling sounds, sewage odours in the basement, and water backing up through a floor drain. Older Mississauga homes with clay or cast iron sewer pipes are especially at risk, because these pipes crack, shift and attract tree roots over time.
If you notice any of these signs, AquaMen recommends a sewer camera inspection to find the exact cause before any digging begins. Depending on what the camera shows, we can repair or replace the damaged section of your sewer drain.
A sewer camera inspection uses a small waterproof camera to look inside your drain pipes and locate cracks, blockages, tree roots and collapsed sections without excavation. It shows exactly what is wrong and where, so you only pay for the repair you actually need.
AquaMen recommends a drain camera inspection before buying an older home in Mississauga, before a basement renovation or underpinning project, and after any sewer backup with no clear cause.
For many Mississauga homes, a backwater valve is the most effective protection against sewer backup and basement flooding. It closes automatically when the municipal sewer backs up during heavy rain, keeping sewage out of your basement. A backwater valve is not the right solution for every house, so the first step is an assessment of your drains, ideally with a sewer camera inspection.
AquaMen installs backwater valves under a City of Mississauga building permit and to Ontario Building Code requirements, arranges the inspection, and recommends adding an alarm that signals when the valve closes.
In general, Peel Region looks after the municipal sewer and water mains in the street, while the pipes on your private property are the homeowner's responsibility. Because the exact boundary depends on your property, confirm it with the Region of Peel before you plan a repair.
AquaMen can inspect your sewer line with a camera, show you where the problem is, and complete the repair or replacement on the private side, including the required permits and inspections.
Yes, in many cases. If your basement floor sits above the main sewer line, a standard gravity drain can be installed by cutting into the concrete slab for new drain lines. If the floor is too low for gravity drainage, an up-flush or ejector system can lift wastewater to the main drain, although a gravity connection is generally the more reliable long-term option.
AquaMen assesses drain depth, slope and City of Mississauga code requirements before the concrete is touched, then handles the plumbing rough-in for your basement bathroom, laundry or kitchenette. If the project includes lowering or underpinning, we lower the drains at the same time.
Yes. AquaMen is a licensed contractor for waterproofing, underpinning, and drain and plumbing services in Mississauga. When we are already excavating for basement waterproofing or underpinning, we replace the sewer drain, upgrade the water service line and install plumbing rough-ins in the same project, so you pay for excavation once and deal with one team instead of several trades.
