Plumber in Harrowsmith, ON

Harrowsmith at a glance

Harrowsmith is a farming village in South Frontenac, north of Kingston. Centennial Park, beside Road 38, has soccer fields, ball diamonds and play structures and hosts many community events. Two former railways, now the Cataraqui Trail and the K&P Rail Trail, still meet here.

What that means for your plumbing

Rural properties around Harrowsmith rely on wells and septic systems, and farms often have water lines running to barns and outbuildings. Each outbuilding line should have its own shut-off so it can be drained for winter. If the house pump runs constantly, see frozen pipe repair and check for a leak in a buried line.

Back-to-the-land homes

Many people moved here from cities between the 1960s and 1980s. Homes built or renovated by owners in that era sometimes have do-it-yourself plumbing worth a second look before a sale or a big renovation.

Cheddar, a magazine and a railway junction

Harrowsmith was once known for the cheddar cheese made at the Harrowsmith Cheese Factory, and the village gave its name to the country living magazine Harrowsmith. It was the junction of the Bay of Quinte Railway and the Kingston and Pembroke Railway, later part of CN and CP, and the station had a livestock pen for shipping animals by rail. In 2025 the first Line Spike music festival drew thousands to a hay field just east of the village. Older village homes near the old junction may have galvanized pipe; see older home plumbing.
