Railway Estates | St. Thomas, ON

Located two hours outside Toronto, ON lies a high-end multi-family project that will soon be c alled “home” to many new residents. As construction began on Railway Estates, it was only fitting to hire Prouse Electric & Mechanical based in Tillsonburg, ON. This family-owned company started out in 1978 providing residential and light-commercial electrical services. Through years of business, Prouse later incorporated a mechanical department servicing both plumbing and HVAC. Fast forward 40 years and today Prouse is a one-stop shop for world-class products and services.

With the release of the EVERLOC+ compression-sleeve fitting system and a growing relationship with REHAU since 2004, Stan Matthews, manager of plumbing at Prouse, saw this opportunity as a chance to install the REHAU PEXa plumbing system which included RAUPEX PEXa UV shield pipe and EVERLOC+ fittings in sizes 3/4 to 1 ½ in. As a user of other materials, Matthews and his team had been facing problems with their current products along with a lack of support.  

“We had trouble on a project and the company refused to back us up or support us,” says Matthews. After reviewing the alternatives and being “always happy with REHAU products,” Matthews and the Prouse team determined REHAU to be the best option.

Today, REHAU is happy to provide Matthews and the Prouse team with top-of-the-line products along with great customer service and custom training.
