Plumber in Contrecœur
Contrecœur is one of the few South Shore municipalities that directly subsidises installing a backwater valve rather than simply requiring one.
The program targets homes built before 1 January 2000 and can cover up to $500 of the bill — purchase and installation. For a valve fitted in a 1980s house, that is a meaningful share of the cost.
We serve Contrecœur from Boucherville, following the river through Verchères.
Plomberie Boucherville does not have an office in Contrecœur. We travel there from Boucherville.
Worth knowing in Contrecœur
Up to $500 in municipal subsidy
The City offers a subsidy of up to $500 for the purchase and installation of a backwater valve, available for homes built before 1 January 2000. The application goes through the City, and the work must be done properly to qualify — which is why it is worth confirming the conditions before ordering the part.

The cutoff is not arbitrary: pre-2000 homes are the ones whose sewer connection and foundation drain are at or past their useful life, and the ones most likely never to have received a compliant valve. It is the housing stock where a camera inspection most often reveals a root intrusion or a reverse slope.
