Housing on file: Pickering
Pickering, two municipalities west along the lakeshore, ranges from 1960s and 1970s neighbourhoods near Liverpool Road and Bay Ridges to new communities growing north in Seaton.
Pickering, west of Ajax, combines older neighbourhoods near Liverpool Road and Bay Ridges, built from the 1960s and 1970s, with the new Seaton community growing in the north.
Older homes may have original copper or galvanized water services that are undersized by modern standards. A new service line improves pressure throughout the house. Water softeners help reduce scale on fixtures and in heaters.
Waterfront homes near Frenchman's Bay can have high groundwater and need reliable sump pumps. Seaton homes may still be under new-home warranty for certain items.
