Plumber Ottawa – Same-Day Plumbing Services & Drain Cleaning

The before photo tells the story pretty clearly. Water had been sitting and creeping around that bathroom sink drain long enough to leave mineral stain trails fanning out across the basin. There was a leak at the drain itself, and the tailpiece underneath needed replacing. That kind of slow seep does not always make a lot of noise, but it causes real damage over time.

We took care of the sink first. The threaded tailpiece on the lavatory drain was swapped out and the drain connection was properly sealed. No more leaking around the base of that drain.

The toilet in the same bathroom had its own issue. It was running longer than it should after each flush, which usually means something inside the tank is not seating right. Rather than patch it, we replaced the toilet entirely, supply and installation both handled in one visit.

The after photo shows the double-sink vanity looking clean and dry. Both basins sitting the way they should. No staining, no pooling, no slow trickle underneath.

This home is in Ottawa-West, and this kind of visit is pretty common for us in older bathrooms where a few things have quietly worn out at the same time. Good to get it all sorted in one shot.

If your bathroom sink or toilet needs attention, reach us at 613-227-7465 and we will come take a look.

That murky container of backed-up water sitting under the cabinet says it all. A homeowner in Ottawa called us because their kitchen sink had completely stopped draining. Water was backing up and going nowhere fast.

When we opened the cabinet under the sink, that's exactly what we found. Grimy, standing water caught in a container below the drain connection, a sure sign the line was fully blocked somewhere downstream. We got our drain snake into the kitchen line and worked through the clog until it cleared.

The after photo tells the rest of the story. Clean cabinet floor, dry pipes, nothing sitting where it shouldn't be. The drain was flowing the way it's supposed to.

Kitchen drains take a lot of abuse. Grease, food scraps, soap buildup, it all adds up quietly until one day the sink just quits on you. This one had reached that point. A straightforward cleaning job, but an important one. A backed-up kitchen sink brings the whole household to a halt.

If your kitchen sink is draining slowly or not at all, we're easy to reach. Call us at 613-227-7465 and we'll get it sorted out.

The old wax ring on this Ottawa bathroom toilet was in rough shape. You can see it in the before photo: the base of the toilet crusted with years of buildup, the seal blackened and crumbling, water damage spreading across the floor underneath. Not a small problem.

The homeowner had called us about a partial clog, which is what brought us out. But once we lifted the toilet, it was clear there was more going on. The flange itself needed attention too, and the shut-off valve cartridge was worn out and due for a replacement.

So we handled all of it in one visit. We cleared the clog, repaired the flange, replaced the cartridge in the shut-off valve, and reset the toilet with a fresh wax ring. The after photo tells the story well. Clean flange, solid seal, new brass bolts set squarely in place. Everything seated properly before the toilet went back down.

It is one of those jobs where what looks like a simple drain call turns into a proper repair. Glad we caught it all while we were already there. A toilet that is not sealed right can cause slow water damage that goes unnoticed for a long time.

If something feels off with your toilet, whether it rocks slightly, drains slowly, or just does not smell right near the base, feel free to reach us at 613-227-7465.

The dishwasher was backing up into the kitchen sink, and water was finding its way down to the basement. A previous plumber had taken a crack at it, but things got worse. Water was now collecting under the cabinet, and there was talk of cutting open the basement ceiling to reach the drain line.

We were called out to this home in Orleans, and right away we got a good look at what was going on under the sink. The photo shows a double-basin kitchen sink with black ABS drain pipes running across the cabinet floor, the dishwasher drain hose tied into the system on the left side. The previous repair had left the connections in rough shape, and the blockage further down the line was still very much there.

We cleared the drain properly and sorted out the connections under the sink so everything tied in the way it should. No ceiling cutting needed. The drain lines in the photo look clean and straightforward once everything was reassembled correctly, with the dishwasher hose seated where it belongs and the trap running clear to the wall.

Sometimes a second set of hands, starting fresh, makes all the difference. If you have a backed-up drain or a repair that did not go quite right, reach us at 613-227-7465.

Every time the washing machine finished draining, the water came right back up into the laundry tub. Not a clog. Not a slow drain. A failed check valve letting flow reverse direction when it had no business doing so.

The homeowner in Ottawa had already figured out the likely cause before booking, which made things straightforward. We confirmed it on site. The old check valve, visible in the before photo tucked into the drain line beneath the tub, had lost its ability to hold flow in one direction. Water was taking the path of least resistance straight back up.

We swapped it out for a new check valve fitted snugly into the same spot on the drain line. The after photo shows the updated setup, white fittings seated cleanly against the black ABS pipe, the washing machine drain hose routed properly into place, and the laundry tub sitting clear and dry the way it should be.

Small part. Big difference in how the laundry room functions day to day.

If something in your basement is behaving in a way that does not quite make sense, we are happy to take a look. Reach us at 613-227-7465.

The floor was already open when we got there. Subfloor cut back, vanity and toilet pulled, and the existing drain pipes fully exposed. This bathroom in Ottawa was mid-renovation, and the shower drain needed to shift position to line up properly with the new layout.

You can see it clearly in the before photo. The rough-in drain connections are sitting in an open floor cavity, with the shower drain temporarily capped. Everything is accessible, which is exactly what you want when you need to reposition drain lines precisely.

The after photo tells the rest of the story. The drain pipe is repositioned and sitting level, confirmed with a spirit level right there in the joist bay. Getting that slope right matters more than most people realize. Too flat and water sits. Too steep and it drains too fast to clean itself. We take the time to check it properly.

Jobs like this one are a good reminder that drain work is not always about snaking a clog. Sometimes it is about making sure everything is in exactly the right place before the walls and floors go back together. Once tile goes down, moving a drain becomes a much bigger project.

If you have a renovation coming up and want the rough-in done right the first time, we are happy to take a look. Reach us at 613-227-7465.
