Commercial Plumbing · Restaurants, Retail, Offices & Small Industrial
Restaurants, cafés, retail units, offices and the buildings around them. Licensed, insured and WSIB-covered, working the GTA since 2013 — with the rate published on this page rather than quoted after the fact.
What We Do On Commercial Sites
The work that keeps a premises trading — and the work that stops it costing you a closed kitchen twice a year.
Burst supply lines, active leaks over a sales floor, no hot water, failed shut-off valves. We isolate first so the rest of the premises keeps trading, then repair.
Round-the-clock for premises on a service agreement. Same-day during working hours otherwise. Discuss Coverage →Commercial kitchen lines, floor drains, grease-narrowed branches and the mains they feed. Hydro-jetting to scour the pipe back to full bore, then a camera run to show what is left.
Jetting and camera work quoted per site — line length, access and cleanout decide the job. Request A Quote →Public and staff washrooms: toilets, urinals, flush valves, sensor taps, floor drains and the supply behind them. Repairs, replacements and full refits between tenants.
Billed hourly, or a fixed quote for a full refit. Several fixtures in one visit. Book A Visit →Tank and tankless replacement, recirculation problems, no-hot-water calls, and the copper or PEX behind them. Sizing checked against what the premises actually draws, not what fitted last time.
Fixed price on replacements, quoted upfront after a walkthrough. The walkthrough is free. Request A Quote →Flood protection where a backup costs you trading days: basements, storage, parking levels and mechanical rooms. Installation, replacement, testing and annual service.
Fixed price, quoted upfront. Municipal flood-protection subsidies apply to many properties. Request A Quote →Video of the line, photographs, and a written condition report — for a landlord dispute, an insurance claim, a lease negotiation or a purchase, instead of a verbal account of what someone saw down a drain.
Billed at the hourly rate. The fee comes off the invoice if you go ahead with the repair. Request An Inspection →Copper and PEX repairs, line relocation, shut-off valve replacement and mapping, service line repair and replacement including excavation where the problem is under the slab or out at the street.
Fixed quote after an on-site assessment. The assessment is free. Request A Quote →Rough-in and finish for a new unit, kitchen or washroom build, fixture sets, drain and supply relocation. We take out the plumbing permit and meet the inspector, so your build schedule is not waiting on paperwork.
Fixed quote from the drawings or a walkthrough. Dates committed before we start. Discuss A Project →The Recurring Blockage Problem
Commercial kitchen and laundry lines fail on a schedule for a reason. Grease and scale build a lining inside the pipe, the bore narrows, and a snake punches a hole through the middle of it. The line drains again, everyone goes home, and the wall closes back up over the next few months.
Sometimes the answer is that the pipe is fine and the kitchen needs a different grease routine. We would rather tell you that than sell you a visit every quarter.

The same numbers we give homeowners, because there is no reason for them to be different.
Billed from arrival. No service-call fee, no travel charge, round-the-clock callout, and planned work scheduled around your trading hours.
Service call covering travel and the first hour, then $110/hr. Fine for a one-off; expensive if we are seeing you monthly.
Replacements, installs, refits and excavation are quoted as a fixed price after a walkthrough or from your drawings — not billed hourly. The walkthrough is free.
Hourly rates are per technician. If a job needs a second person — anything that cannot be done safely alone, or a line that has to be worked from two ends — we tell you before we start, not on the invoice.
Jetting, camera work and excavation on a commercial site are quoted per site, because access, cleanout location and line length change the job. Our published single-family drain prices are on the residential pricing page as a reference point. Send us the site and you get the number before anyone is dispatched.
Questions
Both. Alongside our residential work we service commercial premises and 10+ residential buildings across the GTA — restaurants and cafés, retail units, offices, and the mechanical rooms and washroom groups that come with them. The crew, the licence and the insurance are the same; what changes is the scheduling and the paperwork.
The same published rate as everything else we do: $160 + tax for the service call, covering travel and the first hour, then $110/hr. Premises on a service agreement pay $110/hr from arrival with no service-call fee and get round-the-clock callout. Replacements, installs and fit-out work are a fixed written quote after a walkthrough, and the walkthrough is free.
Yes. For premises on a service agreement we schedule planned work — jetting, water heater swaps, fixture replacement — before opening or after close, so the floor is not shut down mid-service. Emergency callouts are round-the-clock for agreement clients and same-day during working hours for everyone else.
Usually, yes. A line that blocks on a schedule is almost never a one-off clog: it is grease and scale narrowing the pipe, and snaking punches a hole through it that closes again. Hydro-jetting scours the line back to full bore, and a camera run afterwards shows what is actually left — a sag, a broken section, or clean pipe. That is the difference between a fix and a subscription.
Yes. We provide a Certificate of Insurance naming the property where your lease requires it, plus a current WSIB clearance certificate, before the first visit. Ankor Ltd. is an Ontario corporation, OCN 1000623750, licensed and working across the GTA since 2013.
Yes. Tell us how the work splits — base building versus tenant improvement — and the invoice is issued accordingly, with your work order or PO number on the document so it clears your accounts without a phone call.
