We start by discussing your needs and gathering information about your plumbing system. Whether you need annual testing, a new device installation, or toilet repair, we assess your property to determine the best solution for safeguarding your water supply.
Our certified technicians perform a detailed inspection of your backflow preventers, ensuring their proper installation, functionality, and compliance with regulatory requirements. We check for signs of wear, leaks, and improper installation. If your property does not already have a backflow prevention system, we evaluate your plumbing to recommend and plan an appropriate installation.
Using advanced equipment, we conduct precise tests to measure water pressure, valve performance, and overall functionality, including the design features and testing requirements of a reduced pressure principle assembly. This ensures your backflow prevention device is working effectively to stop contamination.
Once testing is complete, we provide a detailed report outlining our findings and any necessary steps for repairs or maintenance, ensuring compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act to protect the municipal water supply. If your device passes inspection, we issue a certification that complies with Ottawa’s backflow regulations, keeping you in good standing with local authorities.
If any issues are detected during testing, we offer prompt repair services to restore your device’s performance. Back pressure in boiler systems can affect the flow of drinking water, potentially leading to contamination. We replace faulty components, reseal connections, and recalibrate valves to ensure full protection against backflow.
To maintain compliance and water safety, we recommend scheduling your next backflow test well in advance. We send reminders for annual testing and offer ongoing support to address any concerns or emergencies.

I contracted John the Plumber to install a new shower kit and upgrade old indoor plumbing. The quote was quite reasonable given the rather complex job and I was very happily surprised by how quickly they were able to come and complete all the work. Brandon communicated all aspects of the job very clearly and professionally at each step. I really appreciated his hard work and fine attention to detail. Thank you very much for getting my brand new shower installed and working beautifully!Posted on Google![]()

I cannot recommend Aaron enough! We had a complex toilet elbow leak that multiple other plumbers and contractors looked at and completely refused to touch due to the difficulty. Aaron stepped in, tackled the job with incredible skill, and fixed it the right way. He was extremely meticulous, paid close attention to every detail, and made sure everything was completely buttoned up before finishing. Absolute lifesaver if you need reliable and top-quality work, Aaron is your guy
