Full Lead Service Line Replacement Toronto
End-to-end replacement covering both the city-side and private-side sections in one coordinated dig — faster, cheaper, one permit.
A full lead service line replacement covers both sections — the private portion (your side, from property line to meter) and the public portion (the city's side, from the water main under the street to your property line) — in a single coordinated project. It's the most thorough solution and, when properly timed, often the most cost-effective.
With both crews mobilized at the same time, there's one trench, one permit coordination, one restoration. No coming back in six months for the other half. And because the entire lead path is removed in a single project, you qualify for the maximum subsidy available under the Toronto Lead Pipe Replacement Program.

How It Works
Assessment of full line
We inspect both the private-side entry point and request the city's records on your address to confirm the public section status and depth.
Coordinated permit
A full-line permit is filed with the City of Toronto and coordinated with Toronto Water's district office. This ensures both crews can work on the same day.
Program application
We file the Toronto Lead Pipe Replacement Program application concurrently. Full-line replacements typically qualify for the highest available subsidy.
One-day coordination
Our crew handles the private section while Toronto Water handles or oversees the public section. The trench is opened along the full run. Both connections are made the same day.
Test, restore, document
The full line is pressure-tested from main to meter. Trench is restored. You receive a written record of the completed replacement.
Full-line replacements are the gold standard. They eliminate all lead from the water supply to your home and often qualify for the largest city subsidies. Ask us about current program funding when you call. Toronto Lead Pipe Solutions is ready to help.
