A neglected septic tank can cause serious problems like sewage backups, standing water, foul odours, and slow drainage. At John The Plumber Barrhaven, we offer prompt, professional septic tank inspection services to detect issues early and help prevent costly repairs.
We proudly serve Barrhaven and surrounding communities in the Ottawa area, offering both scheduled and emergency septic inspection and plumbing services.
If you’re dealing with drainage issues and unpleasant smells or think your tank might be full, our licensed plumbers are here to help. With advanced tools, specialized equipment, and years of experience, we deliver top-notch plumbing services with minimal disruption to your property.
Every septic tank repair begins with a thorough septic tank inspection by a qualified plumber. Our team carefully assesses your entire septic system, including the tank, lines, and drain field, to pinpoint what’s causing the issue.
Common issues include solid waste buildup, cracked or collapsed tanks, full septic tanks, and overloaded or failing plumbing systems. We also evaluate your water usage patterns and environmental factors like slope and soil type to determine how they’re impacting your system.
After inspection, you’ll get a clear explanation of what’s wrong and how we can fix it all aligned with local codes and long-term system health.
When problems are found during an inspection, our licensed professionals act fast to address them. Whether your system needs targeted repairs, tank pumping, or drain field adjustments, we’re equipped to restore proper function.
Depending on the system’s condition, we may recommend tank cleaning, sealing cracks, replacing worn components, or even water line repairs. No matter the layout or age of your septic tank, our plumbing team has the expertise to fix it efficiently.
We work with both old systems and new septic tanks, offering dependable repair services that maintain the health and longevity of your entire system.
One of the most common causes of septic issues is a full tank. Overdue septic tank pumping or failure to clean your system regularly can lead to serious damage. That’s why tank cleaning and septic pumping are often part of our inspection and repair services.
We remove built-up sludge and solid waste to relieve pressure on your tank and restore flow to your drain field. This process not only improves performance but also helps prevent sewage backups and environmental hazards.
Most households should schedule septic pumping every three to five years, depending on water usage and tank size. During the cleaning, we also inspect for signs of wear or damage, ensuring you’re not just covering symptoms but addressing root causes.
Once your septic system is working properly, we want to help you keep it that way. Our licensed plumbers provide guidance on regular maintenance, including water usage management and how to spot early warning signs like foul odours or slow drainage.
By staying ahead of problems and scheduling regular check-ups, you’ll reduce the risk of major plumbing issues and extend the life of your septic system. Prevention is often the best solution, and our team is here to support you every step of the way.

If you’re experiencing slow drains, foul odours, pooling water, or sewage backups, your system may be in trouble. An inspection helps catch problems early.
Pumping clears waste, but an inspection checks for hidden damage. Both are important, but inspections give you a full view of your system’s condition.
As a general guideline, schedule an inspection every three years or sooner if your household has high water usage or you’ve noticed plumbing issues.
Not always. Many inspections confirm that your system is functioning well. But if there are signs of wear, damage, or improper installation, we’ll recommend repairs.
Yes, we offer a full range of plumbing services, from drain cleaning and sump pumps to water heaters and septic tank repairs.
