We at Saving Plumbing handle roughing plumbing projects across Scarborough with care, skill, and a deep understanding of local building codes. As a family-owned and locally operated company, we take pride in doing things right from the start, ensuring your renovation or new construction project doesn’t hit plumbing roadblocks later. Whether it’s a custom home, a basement suite, or a full renovation, we bring experience and attention to detail to every pipe we place.
Roughing (or “rough-in”) plumbing is the initial phase of plumbing installation that happens before drywall, flooring, and final finishes. It’s the backbone of your system—connecting water supply lines, drain pipes, vent stacks, and plumbing stub-outs to the appropriate fixtures and locations.
This stage is critical because mistakes made here can be costly and difficult to fix later. Everything needs to be aligned correctly, slope properly for drainage, and follow strict code standards.
We take this phase seriously. When you bring in our team, you’re getting plumbers who plan carefully, work efficiently, and make sure every part of the rough-in supports long-term performance and safety.
Each roughing project starts with a detailed layout review. We don’t just follow blueprints blindly—we look for ways to improve flow, prevent future issues, and meet your functional goals.
