Plumber in Wiarton & the Highway 6 Corridor

About Our Plumbing Services in Wiarton

Muzzell Plumbing service truck

Wiarton is a harbour town, and many of the homes near the waterfront and downtown date back a century or more — brick and frame houses with galvanized supply lines, cast iron drains and older sewer laterals that have seen decades of roots and settling. Homes in town are on municipal water and sewer. The drive up from Owen Sound tells a different story: along Highway 6 through Springmount, Hepworth and the country between, nearly everything is on private wells and septic, drawing hard escarpment limestone water. Shoreline cottages on Colpoys Bay sit empty through the winter and need proper closing in fall and opening in spring. We repipe and repair older Wiarton homes, clear and camera-inspect problem drains, replace water heaters, winterize and open cottages, replace well pumps and pressure tanks, install softeners, iron filters and UV systems, and handle fixtures and renovations.
