Plumbing Inspections & Protection

Protect Your Plumbing Before Problems Start

Preventing plumbing problems is often easier and more affordable than repairing the damage they can cause.

Since 2006, John The Plumber has helped Ottawa homeowners identify plumbing problems early, maintain their systems and keep their plumbing working properly.

Our licensed Ottawa plumbers know what to look for, where common problems develop and how to spot issues that could become bigger repairs later.

How Can John The Plumber Help You?

Find the problem early.
Fix it before it gets expensive.

Many expensive plumbing problems start as smaller issues that could have been caught earlier.

Plumbing problems can become costly for Ottawa families. John The Plumber believes every Canadian should have access to running water, waste management and affordable plumbing services.

That’s why we offer plumbing system inspections, maintenance services, protective services and devices designed to help identify and prevent everyday plumbing problems.

If you want to protect your home plumbing system and your wallet, consider having one of our experts inspect your plumbing and find potential issues before they become bigger and more expensive.

Drain Camera Plumbing Inspections

Drain clogs and blockages can happen slowly over time. It’s not uncommon for a hollow pipe to become a solid cylinder, filled with solid mineral and waste deposits.

A Drain Camera Inspection will locate drain clogs and blockages and reveal damaged and broken pipes.

I’ve had the pleasure to deal with Jonathan on multiple occasions. Most recently during a pre-purchase plumbing inspection. He’s very knowledgeable, has great work ethics and I never hesitate to refer him and John The Plumber to anyone.

Jonathan did a fabulous job at a great price. We had three jobs done at our new house, and his quote came in at less than half of our previous quote from a major competitor. Not only did he fix everything in a timely manner, but he gave us a tour of the plumbing in our new house.

Jonathan did a fabulous job at a great price. We had three jobs done at our new house, and his quote came in at less than half of our previous quote from a major competitor. Not only did he fix everything in a timely manner, but he gave us a tour of the plumbing in our new house as I was a bit intimidated by the age of the house ( over 50 years). He gave us great peace of mind by pointing out the things to look out for and the things not to worry about.

What touched me most and marked him as service above and beyond was when he asked my husband (who was recently diagnosed with Parkinson’s) if he felt comfortable operating the valves he had chosen and had him try them to be sure. So appreciated!

As an aside, Jonathan showed he is a man of many skills as I was cooking a Moroccan stew while they were visiting. He suggested adding an apricot. Please let Jonathan know that it was a beautiful addition to the dish and it was a great success :).

Great service at an affordable price. I had three services with them so far, and they are always on time at the scheduled service time. The service technician explains in detail with a clear break down of the job to be understood easily. At the end of service, they test their work that service has been done correctly. They havebeen truly great service with integrity. I highly recommend their service.

David was our plumber. He did an amazing job, gave me more then a fair price, and came within an hour of me calling john the plumber’s phone number. David described what needed to be done and how much it would cost in advance, which was amazing! Best service that I could’ve asked for. Thank you so much, David!! I will definitely call him again when needed, 10 out of 10 recommended.

I selected John The Plumber based on their reviews, and it was a good decision! I needed to replace an old washer, install a new one, and install a drain to the main pipe (didn’t like it draining into the sink). David and Shane were very skilled, efficient, and professional and highlighted a few things to watch for in the future (based on the current house plumbing). Very happy with the service. Recommend 100%! Will use in the future again.
