The Region of Peel Public Works department regularly maintains and repairs the water
system to make sure you have a reliable supply of quality drinking water. Sometimes the Region turns off your water supply while they do the work.
Water will be turned off on Monday, March 9, 2020 from approximately 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. However, if the weather is bad or if a problem arises, we will reschedule the work and will let you know the new date and time.
When the Region turns the water back on, air in the pipes may make the water cloudy and your plumbing may vibrate or make noise. If this happens, you can remove the air by briefly turning on your taps from the lowest to the highest faucet in the building (that is, starting in the basement/first floor and finishing on the top floor). Flush the toilets as well.
You should only have to run the water for 10 to 30 seconds, but keep running it until the
water is clear and any vibration or noise has stopped.
If your water meter starts to leak, call Water Meter Installations Dispatch at:
(905) 791 – 7800 Ext. 3226 (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. – Monday to Friday)
(905) 791 – 7800 Ext. 4409 (After hours or Statutory Holidays)
