Building a new property or upgrading an old water line? Everest Drain & Plumbing has been providing fire mains and water supply installation services in the Toronto and GTA area since 2013. A fire main supplies your building’s sprinklers and standpipes and a robust water supply keeps everything else running. We size, install, and connect both to the code from the city main to your riser. Call us for fire main and water supply installation across the Greater Toronto Area.

The Water Lines That Keep Your Building Running and Protected
Available For Any Type of Plumbing Emergency
Fire mains and water services are underground and have heavy demands; therefore, there is no room for shortcuts. Since 2013, we have installed and replaced water lines throughout the GTA using trenchless methods when suitable, avoiding damage to your property. This is just one of our comprehensive HVAC services throughout the area.
A fire main is a pipe dedicated to supplying water to your fire protection system. A water supply line brings water to your building that you use every day. Both are connected directly to the municipal main and contain pressure that requires the correct pipe, valves, and backflow protection. If you get the size or connection wrong, the sprinkler will go dry or the pressure will drop. This work must be done in compliance with fire and plumbing codes and requires a licensed crew with experience. Each line is designed, installed and tested to last decades.
In some buildings, a new main is required and in others an upgrade to meet demand. We install and replace mains across the GTA for a range of reasons:

Fire main and water supply installation services for residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.
The fire main installation is more than just a pipe in the ground. We provide you with all the work from the city connection to the feed that reaches your sprinkler riser. The following is a typical underground fire main installation:
All fire main pipe installations include testing and paperwork required for sign-off.
The fire main does not stop at the foundation. Where the line rises into the building, the work stays just as demanding. We install the above-grade side of your fire service, from the point it leaves the ground to the riser that feeds every floor. Here is what that covers:
This is heavy pipe under real pressure, held to the fire code and signed off on inspection. It sits outside what a residential plumber takes on, and our licensed crew handles the buried run and the building side as one job.
Your water line supplies all the water taps, fixtures and appliances in the building. For new construction or upgrades, we install water supply services in your building to meet the demands of your property. A tired or old pipeline will cause a loss in pressure and will have rusty water and poor flow. We run a new service from the city main, fit a meter and backflow preventer, and install the main shutoff where you can reach it. Once the water supply system is installed correctly, you will have a strong and clean flow and our plumbing services will take care of all that comes after.
You don’t need to have a complete specification before calling. Tell us about your building and your project, and we’ll take it from there. We evaluate the site, inspect existing lines, and plan out what the fire and plumbing codes require. No jargon, no upselling, and a clear plan and an honest quote.
A water line that delays your construction can cost you both money and time. Everest plans and directs the work throughout the GTA while working with other trades to ensure the project keeps moving. Give us a call, and we will arrange the dig, permit and connection around your schedule. We have been working in the GTA since 2013 and we know how to stay on track.

Every fire main and water supply installation follows the same clear steps, so you always know what to expect.
Cost depends on the length of the run, the pipe size, and how deep we dig. A short water service costs far less than a long fire main with valves and a backflow assembly. You get an upfront quote before any work starts, so nothing on the bill catches you off guard. Everest gives a free estimate over the phone or with a site visit, and every job is priced fairly for the work it takes. The cost will vary depending on the run length, size of the pipe, and depth of digging required. Short water service lines cost much less than long fire mains with valves and backflow devices. Before any work commences, you’ll have an initial quote of the total cost of the services, which means no surprises on your bill. Everest provides free quotes via phone or by visiting our site. Every job is charged at a fair rate according to its requirements.

The fire main is the pipe responsible for carrying water to the fire protection system in the building. This includes fire sprinklers and standpipes, running from the city main to your riser, typically buried.
Absolutely. We take care of everything – the city, water authority, permits, and inspections. You don’t have to run around with all the paperwork.
Often, yes. Depending on the site, we can use trenchless technology that requires less digging. There are cases where we have to use open excavation, and we restore the site afterward.
Most often, it helps a lot. Low pressure, in most cases, is the result of an outdated or small pipe. With a properly sized service installed, you’ll get a high flow.
For a small one, it takes a couple of days. Installation of a large fire main line with valves and tests takes more time. We provide the schedule in advance.
