Service was provided on a priority basis. The leak was found and repaired very quickly. Unfortunately some ceiling wallboard had to be removed for the repair but it was done very professionally and tidily. The plumber, Vaughn, was very courteous and friendly.

I hired John the Plumber (Eric) to do a complete plumbing rebuild of the basement bathroom (+4 feet of water) after the Canada Day flood. He explained clearly what needed to be done. When Phase 1 began he showed up with student / apprentice /helper (Reza). They worked together like a plumbers symphony. They completed Phase 1 in a timely and professional manner. After doing so they explained clearly what had been done and iterated what would occur when they will return for Phase 2. I have complete confidence that they will complete Phase 2 and 3 in the same professional manner they did in Phase 1.

FAQs

How do I know if my plumbing vent is clogged?

Signs of a clogged plumbing vent include gurgling sounds, slow draining, or odours caused by trapped sewer gases.

What is an air admittance valve?

An air admittance valve is a device that allows fresh air into your plumbing system without requiring a traditional vent pipe to the roof.

Can I install a plumbing vent myself?

While it may seem straightforward, venting requires compliance with plumbing codes and proper installation techniques. It’s best to hire a licensed plumber for safe and effective results.

What causes strange noises in my drains?

Strange noises, such as gurgling, often occur due to improper venting or a clogged vent stack, which prevents air from flowing freely through the venting system.
