Editorial Ranking
It holds position 9 in 10 Best Plumbers in Hamilton, ON (2026).
Based in Hamilton, ON.
Coverage is as the business describes it, cross-checked against where its recent documented work is. A company will often travel beyond the areas listed here for a large job and decline a small one at the same distance, so confirm your address before scheduling.
Guest Plumbing & HVAC is based at 50 Bittern Street, Unit 8, in Ancaster, which is part of the City of Hamilton, and it also runs an office in Toronto. Google shows 503 reviews at a 4.8 average for the Ancaster location, read September 24, 2026, and lists it as open 24 hours.
The company describes itself as a family living in the community and says its focus is the design and installation of long-lasting systems for new, custom and renovated homes and commercial spaces, working directly with builders and homeowners. It also takes regular service calls. The plumbing side covers residential plumbing, water heaters and water heater maintenance, water treatment systems, backflow services and commercial plumbing, and its photos show tankless water heaters, kitchens and bathrooms. The heating and cooling side covers furnaces, boilers, heat pumps, air conditioning, maintenance packages, indoor air quality and duct cleaning. Guest offers 24/7 emergency service and financing.
On recognition, the website says Guest received a 2016 Young Entrepreneur of the Year award, and it mentions the 40 Under Forty and Outstanding Business Achievement awards. It is a member of the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce and the West End Home Builders' Association.
Reviews describe a well-organized team. Nicole had a tankless water heater installed and named Tayler on the phone, Tyler directing the job, and Ben and Farhatt, who worked all day, cleaned up and gave a walkthrough of the new system. Erik had a built-in barbecue, fire table and pool heater connected and said Farhaat reviewed the natural gas demand before starting. Robert said Ashley replaced a hard-to-reach water shutoff valve quickly, and Monika, a repeat customer, said Ashley swapped old faucets fast. Nikola said Joey diagnosed and fixed a problem at a shop.
The website does not publish warranty terms, license numbers or an email address.
Guest suits a Hamilton or Ancaster homeowner planning a tankless water heater, a gas appliance hookup or plumbing for a renovation or new build, and anyone who wants plumbing and HVAC from one company. It suits less well someone who wants a small, owner-only shop. Ask for warranty terms, confirm the Ontario certificate of qualification and TSSA registration for gas work, and check who pulls the City of Hamilton permit.
Company history, ownership and capability details on this page are provided by the business and reviewed by our editors for plausibility and consistency. They are not the same as the credentials block, where each item carries its own verification status and source.
Verified means we checked the credential against the authority that issues it and recorded the date. Reported means the business told us and we could not independently confirm it. We publish both, labelled, rather than dropping what we could not check.
We show each source separately rather than blending them into a single score, because they measure different things.

Toronto, Mississauga, Hamilton, Etobicoke, Oakville, Burlington, Ancaster. Coverage is as the business describes it, cross-checked against where its recent documented work is. Confirm your address before scheduling, particularly at the edge of a service area.
