Your main plumbing drain runs underneath your basement floor. If this sewer drain was corroded, cracked, collapsed, or sagging, then your basement floor will need to be opened up to repair the sewer main. Ottawa has many older homes and often times the sewer drain repair is needed because you have old metal and cast iron pipes running underneath your floor.
This may sound like a big job, but oftentimes we are finished in a couple of days, and you only lose your drainage system for a few hours. We will try to coordinate the timing to accommodate your life, to ensure you will be able to shower, do laundry, and get the dishes done.
At John The Plumber, when we open your basement floor we use a professional concrete cutting and coring company. This allows for the smallest possible opening and the neatest repair. The biggest advantage to using a concrete cutting company is that they have specialized equipment that won’t allow any dust or fumes to pollute your home.
After they’ve completed opening the floor, our plumbers will repair the sewer by re-piping the underground plumbing, and rough in any bathrooms you had originally. Upon completion of the piping, we will reinstate your concrete floor; by filling in the trenches we created to replace the piping. Give the floor 24 hours to cure, roll back the carpet, put the furniture back where it was, and you’d never know we were there.
