Housing on file: Bowmanville

Bowmanville has a historic downtown with Victorian homes and a large number of newer subdivisions to the north and south.

Bowmanville is the largest community in Clarington, with a downtown along King Street lined with Victorian and Edwardian buildings, mature residential streets around it, and large subdivisions built since the 1990s to the north and south of Highway 401.

Older homes near downtown can have original cast-iron stacks, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply lines. Toilet flanges on old cast-iron drains corrode, so replacing a toilet often includes a new flange or repair ring. In newer neighbourhoods, builder-grade fixtures and fill valves are the usual repairs.

Gas line additions are common as owners add barbecue connections, ranges and garage heaters. Sizing the line correctly matters; a long run to the backyard needs larger pipe than a short one. Gas work is done by appropriately certified technicians, and Clarington permits apply.
