Bathroom Renovation Plumbing Services in Toronto
From a single fixture upgrade to a complete bathroom transformation, Phoenix 24/7 Plumbing delivers flawless plumbing work that brings your vision to life — on time and on budget.
The Plumbing Backbone of Your Dream Bathroom
A beautiful bathroom renovation starts with the plumbing — and that's exactly where Phoenix 24/7 Plumbing excels. Whether you're redesigning a cramped ensuite in a Cabbagetown Victorian, upgrading a dated main bathroom in a North York bungalow, or adding a second bathroom to a growing family home in Etobicoke, our licensed plumbers bring the expertise and precision your project demands. Bathroom renovations are among the most plumbing-intensive home improvement projects. Moving fixtures like toilets, vanities, showers, or soaker tubs means rerouting supply and drain lines — work that requires a deep understanding of your home's existing infrastructure, slope requirements for proper drainage, venting codes, and water pressure dynamics. Hiring an unlicensed contractor or a general handyman for this work is one of the most common — and costly — mistakes Toronto homeowners make. At Phoenix 24/7 Plumbing, we work closely with your renovation contractor, interior designer, or tile installer to coordinate plumbing rough-in and finish work around the overall project schedule. We handle all supply and drain line relocations, install new rough-in for relocated fixtures, set and connect toilets and vanities, hook up showers and freestanding or built-in tubs, install steam shower systems, connect bidets and smart toilet systems, and configure multi-head shower systems with thermostatic valves. We also take responsibility for ensuring all plumbing work is fully permitted and passes the City of Toronto's required inspections — a step many renovation companies quietly skip, leaving homeowners exposed to liability. Beyond technical execution, we understand that renovation projects are stressful, and communication matters. We show up when we say we will, complete our work on schedule so your project doesn't stall, and leave every work area cleaner than we found it. Our goal is to be the most reliable trade on your renovation site — the one your general contractor asks back for every job.

Toronto Homeowners Share Their Renovation Experiences
“We did a complete gut renovation of our master ensuite in our 1970s Leaside home. Phoenix 24/7 handled all the plumbing — relocated the toilet, moved the shower to the opposite wall, and installed a gorgeous freestanding tub. Their crew coordinated perfectly with our GC and tiler. The rough-in was immaculate. Zero issues at inspection. I'd hire them for every renovation.”
Bathroom Renovation Plumbing FAQs
It depends on the scope of work. Simple cosmetic changes like replacing fixtures in the same location typically don't require a permit. However, if you're moving any drains, supply lines, or vents, adding a new bathroom, or making changes to your plumbing stack, a building permit is required by the City of Toronto. Phoenix 24/7 Plumbing manages permit applications and inspections for all projects that require them — we won't cut corners that could expose you to liability.
Plumbing work typically happens in two phases. The rough-in phase occurs after demolition and framing, before drywall and tile. This is when we relocate and install all supply lines, drain lines, and venting. The finish phase occurs near the end of the renovation, after tiling is complete, when we set and connect all visible fixtures (toilet, vanity, shower valves, tub, etc.). We coordinate with your general contractor to align our schedule with the overall project timeline.
Absolutely — we prefer it. We work as a seamlessly integrated trade alongside your GC, interior designer, and other trades. We communicate proactively about rough-in locations, valve heights, and rough-in dimensions so that your designer's specifications are met exactly. Many Toronto renovation contractors and designers specifically request Phoenix 24/7 Plumbing for their projects because of our reliability and coordination.
Moving a toilet requires rerouting the drain line, which involves working with your subfloor and potentially your ceiling below (if the bathroom is above finished space). It's very achievable — we do it regularly — but it does add cost and complexity compared to a same-location replacement. The specific challenge depends on your home's floor structure and where your main stack is located. We assess this during your consultation and quote accordingly.
Water pressure in multi-fixture showers depends on proper pipe sizing, the performance of your home's supply system, and the correct selection and installation of pressure-balancing or thermostatic valves. Our plumbers assess your home's incoming pressure and pipe sizing as part of the planning process, recommend the appropriate valve configuration, and install everything to ensure consistent, comfortable water delivery even when other fixtures are in use elsewhere in the home.
