Ajax neighbourhoods
Ajax runs from the Lake Ontario shoreline north past Highway 401 and Rossland Road, bounded roughly by Duffins Creek to the west and the Whitby boundary to the east. The older core around Pickering Village and the south end hold a different mix of plumbing than the newer northern subdivisions, and each neighbourhood page below describes what we tend to find there.
Nearby communities
We also cover parts of Pickering, including Bay Ridges and Amberlea, and Whitby, including Port Whitby and Brooklin, as well as rural hamlets such as Greenwood and Claremont where many houses rely on private wells.
Local tip If your street is not listed, phone anyway. The pages are a guide, not a boundary.
How the route changes the job
South of the 401 we bring longer sectional cable and a camera, because older laterals under mature maples are where roots get in. In the 1980s pockets we carry poly-B transition fittings and copper repair couplings. North of Rossland the van is stocked for PEX crimp rings, sump pump check valves and power-vent tank parts. In the hamlets above Taunton Road there is no town sewer at all, so the work shifts to well pressure tanks, pump switches and septic-friendly drain clearing.
