    change laundry taps, stop leaks, change pipes on another sink leading to outside faucet.

    Jim was extremely thorough. He took time to explain exactly what needed to be done and why. We were so impressed with him we had him do the laundry room taps while he was here. We will definitely be calling them if the need arises.

    Plumbing Service

    Used DrainWorks service on two occassions. Once to clear roots in the main drain pipe and another time to clear a blockage in the stacks. Their service is excellent. The technicians (Jim and Matt) were professional, thorough and clean. Every detail of the job was explained, and the work was done to 100% satisfaction. I highly recommend their service.

    leak in pipe

    Having used Drainworks before, we did not hesitate to call them when we realized we had a plumbing issue. We discovered a crack in the pipe that feeds water to our outdoor tap. It hadn't been properly drained and had cracked over the winter. William called in advance to advise that Chris (our plumber) would be late and wanted to confirm that it wasn't an issue. They communicated clearly at every step of the way and were a pleasure to deal with. Chris arrived when they said he would, diagnosed the issue, was very clear with instructions and immensely helpful in terms of instructions for avoiding the a similar situation in the future. I would definitely recommend using their services and will use them again when we need plumbing help!

    basement bathroom

    Excellent service and a great plumber! I have had many over the years (plumbers, electricians, insullation specialists, yard men, ground diggers, etc) and will say quite blatantly, that Drainworks has very competent and instructive workers, not to mention POLITE! Manners go a long way in covering up other inadequacies, but as far as I can say, Drainworks has none, (inadequacies, that is).

    Answer from pro:

    Drain checkup

    We live in an old Toronto house and have had issues with our drain over the years. Drainworks is part of my plan to keep the drain in perfect working order without going through an unnecessary and stressful and potentially much more expensive sewer backup. Scheduling and completion of the service were flawless. Thank you.

    Replace 45' of sanitary pipe inside and plumbing improvements

    DrainWorks replaced 45’ of deteriorating clay drains under our basement floor with PVC pipe, and made several smaller plumbing improvements (replace kitchen stack and bathtub trap, add kitchen stack cleanout, etc.) We had put this work off for years (and spent a lot of money clearing tree roots from our drains) because we thought it would be a big inconvenience. But DrainWorks completed this work (which involved digging trenches in our basement, replacing the pipe, and filling the trenches with concrete, plus the additional smaller improvements) in less than 2 days. They were very committed to inconveniencing us as little as possible and our water use was only interrupted for a couple of hours. They left the work area as clean as anyone could reasonably expect. Everyone we dealt with was courteous and professional. Armando was the lead person on the job and I very much appreciated feeling I could trust him to make any additional repairs he thought were appropriate. He communicated the details of the work clearly and everything went pretty much as we were told it would. Also, my house is very old and sometimes contractors moan and groan about the challenges of working on such an old house but there was none of this with DrainWorks. The cost, relative to other home repairs I have had done, seemed very reasonable given the scope of the work. It’s only been a few days, and I am no plumbing expert, but everything looks great. I recommend this company without hesitation.

    Cleared blockage and replaced cracked main drain, replaced old clay drains under basement floor

    I had to repair the main drain in my house and decided to also replace the century old original clay drains under the basement floor. Drainworks came quickly, did the job quickly, and left my basement cleaner than when they arrived. They explained what they were doing and asked for my input whenever there were options or decisions needed. They are not cheap but they are very professional and they do excellent work.

    Replace a kitchen faucet

    The charge to replace a faucet (undo 3 nuts, pullout old faucet, insert new, owner supplied faucet, tighten nuts, leave) of $319 is outrageous and borders on gouging. It took him under 50 minutes after which he sat in his truck on the street, apparently reading The Sun or some other paper for about an hour. To add insult he took my daughter's 'designer' faucet with him (which he since returned).Also the warranty was removed because the faucet may be used to attach a portable dishwasher!

    Answer from pro:

    Hello Vic, your daughter, a long standing client of ours, arranged to have us meet with you at her home as she could not be onsite. We made an exception and met with you. We’d love to touch on each of your points below. The price for us to install your daughter’s supplied faucet was given upfront, before any work was done. You agreed to said price. You could have turned us away, at no cost, if you did not like the price. Secondly, we were never told that her broken/old faucet that we were replacing was to be left onsite. However, when we were told your daughter wanted it, we returned at a later date, at our cost (no charge to her) and hand delivered the faucet to her at her front door. Finally, we cannot warranty an item that we did not provide (you provided the faucet); no one in any industry or field can or would do this. DrainWorks always strives to provide the utmost in transparency and quality of service, as evidenced by the myriad reviews here, and otherwise. Have a great weekend.

    Efficient and Knowledgeable

    I filled out a "get a quote form" on line and received a phone response the same day. An appointment was set for a technician to visit and the payment information was explained to me. The company was very accommodating in scheduling a visit to meet my timetable. I received a call the day of to say the technician was running on time. When Matt arrived I explained that the toilet, in the basement, was not flushing properly. I found that he was very knowledgeable, as he described the work that could be done to resolve the problem. Once I chose a method, he proceeded to perform the work. He left the area extremely clean so there was nothing for me to do. I was very pleased with the service.
