Plumbing Repair in North York, ON and Nearby Areas

Our North York plumbers have the experience and expertise to perform many types of plumbing repairs, from minor repairs such as fixing leaking plumbing fixtures to major repairs like trenchless sewer line replacement.

Plumbing Fixtures Repair

Can you hear your bathroom faucet dripping throughout the night? Is there routinely a puddle around the base of your leaking toilet? Or is it your outdoor faucets that are causing issues? No matter what fixture is giving you a hard time, our certified plumbers will have it fixed in a jiffy.

Faucet repairs and toilet repairs are two of the most frequent fixture repair requests we get, but we can also do shower repair and bathtub repair. Though some of our more experienced customers feel comfortable tackling their leaky faucets on their own, toilet repair is another matter entirely. One of the most important things to know about toilet repair is that without professional experience and the right tools, it can be dangerous to do on your own. Our professional plumbers will protect your home from water damage and eliminate leaks by repairing your toilet the right way.

Hot Water Heater Repairs

As professional plumbers, we work a lot with hot water heaters in North York. The two most popular types of water heaters are conventional tank heaters and tankless water heaters. Hot water tanks tend to require more repairs than tankless heaters. Common issues we’re called in to fix include:

• A lack of hot water
• Long heating time for tank heaters
• Leaking tanks
• Strange noises

In addition to our repair plumbing services, we also offer installations. We’ll always try to fix your hot water heater first, but when it’s no longer economically advantageous to do so, we’ll suggest getting a replacement.

Clogged Drain Repair

One of the most common plumbing issues experienced by homeowners in North York is clogged drains. This typically occurs with bathroom plumbing but may also occur in your kitchen drain. Types of plumbing repair in North York for clogged drains centre around dislodging the clog. There are a couple of ways we can do this:

• Removing clog with an auger. Using a powerful mechanized auger, we can quickly remove clogs in your drainpipes or lateral line.
• Removing clog with HydroScrub^® Jetting. The most effective way to not only remove clogs but completely clean the inside of your sewer lines is by using HydroScrub^® Jetting. This system uses high-pressure water to blast any and all debris out of your lines. Because chemicals aren’t required, it’s also eco-friendly.
• Removing clog manually. When clogs are caused by accidentally dropping and rinsing a foreign object down the drain, we may be able to remove part of the drainpipe to retrieve this item for you. In the image below, you can see a sink trap, also called a P-trap, under one of our customer’s sinks. This bent piece of piping traps odours but can also sometimes catch objects.

If you’re concerned about sewer backups caused not just by clogs, but by heavy rainfall, we can also perform a backwater valve installation and repair for your home.

Sometimes a plumbing problem with your drainage system isn’t a simple clog, but rather a more serious issue with your sewer lines. You may have a leaky pipe underneath your property that is allowing sewage to seep out beneath your yard. This can attract tree roots, which will then infiltrate cracks and crevices around your pipe.

As these tree roots grow, they’ll clog up your sewer line. As gross as it is to us, raw sewage offers trees an ample source of moisture and nutrients. This plumbing repair in North York will involve using HydroScrub^® Jetting to blast away the roots, followed by a trenchless sewer line repair method. We’ll typically use one of two main types of trenchless methods:

• Pipe relining. This technique involves creating a new pipe within the old one. To do this, we’ll measure a felt liner to the size of your sewer line. When it’s time to install it, we’ll dip it in an epoxy resin, which will harden as it cures. Using the pre-existing access points to your line, we’ll insert the liner and blow it up. As it expands, it will stick to the existing pipe and seal any cracks. Once dried, you’ll have a brand-new pipe!
• Pipe bursting. Instead of inserting a flexible felt liner, we’ll use hydraulics to pull a new pipe through your old one. As we go, we’ll burst the old pipe apart so that the new one is left in its place.
