When you call me,
you get me.

Hi, I'm Roy. I'm a licensed and skilled journeyman plumber with 20 years in the trade. I'm originally from the UK, and in January 2021 my family and I moved to Barrie to build something of our own.

I started out with a local plumbing company, and it showed me exactly what I wanted to bring to this community. A more personal service. Real attention to detail. Fair, honest pricing.

For me, plumbing isn't only about fixing the problem. It's about making sure you feel looked after. I pay close attention to the details, and I treat every home as if it were mine.

"I show up when I say I will, I'm honest and upfront, and the job isn't finished until you're completely happy."

What I do

Plumbing done properly, start to finish.

One plumber, one standard. From a dripping tap to a full bathroom renovation, here is how I can help.

Residential Plumbing

Leaky faucets, clogged drains and blocked pipes. Fast, reliable fixes you can count on.

Commercial Plumbing

Work that fits around your business, so your day keeps moving with minimal disruption.

Backflow Prevention

Cross connection testing, surveys, install and repair. Fully compliant with the municipality.

Water Heater Repair & Install

Diagnose and repair fast, or install new. I work on all types of water heater.

Sewer Line Services

Clogs, backups and tree root infiltration, cleared and repaired properly.

Home Inspection

A full visual plumbing check for buyers and owners, with a clear plan to fix any faults.

Bathroom Renovation

Full renovations including tile, electrical and building work. Start to finish, I handle it.

Plumbing Maintenance

Preventive upkeep that keeps small issues from turning into costly repairs.

On the ground

What plumbing in Innisfil actually involves.

Innisfil is unusual in Simcoe County — water and wastewater are run by InnServices, the town's own municipal services corporation, rather than a county or provincial operator. Its systems cover Alcona, Stroud, Lefroy, Belle Ewart, Gilford, Cookstown, Churchill and Innisfil Heights, with the Lakeshore treatment plant sitting in Alcona.

Outside those serviced pockets, plenty of Innisfil properties are still on private wells and septic — and the town's own watering restrictions exempt private well users, which tells you how many there are. Those two realities need different plumbing: pressure tanks, softeners and iron filtration on one side of the line, municipal pressure and sewer connections on the other.

Common calls

What I get called out for in Innisfil.

New-build fixtures and finishing

Alcona and Lefroy have absorbed a lot of new housing. I fit and finish fixtures, correct builder shortcuts, and sort the things that surface once a house has been lived in.

Lakeshore and seasonal properties

Belle Ewart, Big Cedar Point, Sandy Cove, Gilford and Leonard's Beach. Shutting a place down properly for winter and starting it back up in spring without a flooded floor.

Well and pressure-tank work

On the concessions outside the serviced areas — pumps, pressure tanks, softeners and filtration for the iron and hardness that comes with local groundwater.

Commercial backflow testing

Cross-connection surveys and annual testing on commercial premises, filed for municipal compliance. I hold the backflow certification and deal with the municipality directly.

Out of a 0-10 rating, I would give Roy from Wilkin Plumbing a 20. This man is without a doubt the best plumber I have ever dealt with in my 50 years of owning a home. He is so very knowledgeable, kind, professional and he stands by his word. The last two projects he did for us were done with perfection, and although he ran into things that took him longer, he stood by his quote. I would recommend Roy to anyone without hesitation.

I look after 6 Tim Hortons restaurants in Barrie and Roy is our plumber. He is by far the most detailed, knowledgeable, honest plumber we have had. He is quick and prompt at solving any of our plumbing issues at any of our locations. He arrives on time and on the date he schedules us for, and if there is any plumbing emergency, he responds quickly.

Roy was great at understanding our needs for a new sump pump set up. We are on high ground water in the south east end and Roy fitted us with a two pump set up to ensure peace of mind, along with a wifi water level detector for extra measure. Would highly recommend!

My wife and I could not be happier with our new bathroom. Extremely knowledgeable, Roy transformed an empty corner of our basement into a beautiful, fully functional bathroom. His work is impeccable and the end result speaks for itself. A great guy and a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend him!

Roy is an outstanding plumber. When I called him to service my sump pump, he presented multiple solutions to my issues and guided me through the decision-making process. His expertise is remarkable, and he is so professional and a pleasure to deal with. I can't recommend him highly enough!

No surprises

Honest, upfront pricing.

Charged on time and materials, so you only pay for the work the job actually needs.

Standard rates

Service call
Covers the first hour on site, materials separate$140 + tax
Set-price itemsOn request

Some supplied items, like toilets and faucets, have set prices. Everything is based on the time and materials needed to do the job right.

Free

Most estimates cost nothing.

I can often quote straight from a few photos you send me. For bigger projects I'm happy to do a site visit at no cost.

Good to know

Questions I get asked.

What fixtures can you install?
Sinks, toilets, showers, bathtubs and much more. I usually supply and install the fixtures myself, but I'm happy to work with items you've bought. If it's plumbing related, I can install it.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the issue and how complex it is to fix. My pricing is based on time and materials. There's a standard service call of $140 + tax that covers the first hour, with materials charged separately.
Do you charge for estimates?
Most estimates are free, and I can often quote from photos you send me. For bigger projects I'll do a site visit at no cost. These are usually at set times in the week, so you may need to be flexible. A visit at a time that suits you better may carry a small fee.
How many plumbers are on staff?
Wilkin Plumbing is run by me, Roy. For larger jobs I bring in a few trusted journeyman plumbers, but they always work alongside me. I'm on site to make sure every job meets my standard.
