    Backed up sewer drain

    WE had a backed up sewer drain so we called on WaterWorks - they showed up promptly and were very courteous. They snaked the pipe and found a blockage. They showed us the blockage on the video feed and took the time to explain our options, which included the worst case scenario of having to dig up our front yard to get to the pipe. But they were persistent and spent some time trying to loosen the item with their snake - in the end they succeeded! We were thrilled that they took the time to fix the problem the "easy way" instead of having to incur the extra cost and hassle of a bigger project.

    Kitchen Tap Repair

    I was impressed with how quickly they returned my email to set up an appointment. Punctual, called shortly before Mike arrived and did a great job at replacing my kitchen tap. Even did some minor repairs to my bathroom tap for free. Great service all around and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

    Two jobs - leaking ceiling and running toilet

    We awoke last week to find water dripping from our kitchen ceiling. My husband removed a section of the ceiling and we were able to see a pin hole in the copper piping (at an elbow joint) for the bath tub on the second floor above our kitchen. We called Waterworks because of the reviews we read on Homestars. It was the weekend so an answering service took our information and Michael called us back later in the day and set up a time to come later in the week. (We set up a bucket to catch the water to keep the water from ruining more of our ceiling) Michael called about an hour before coming to the house to ensure that someone was home. He and his apprentice arrived when they said they would and were very friendly. They assessed the hole in the pipe and told me the price to repair it. They had the equipment and parts in the truck and were able to fix it right away. We asked them if we should replace more of the piping to prevent future leaks, before closing up the drywall. They said not to start replacing pipes unless we started to get more leaks. While I had them in our home I asked them to take a look at a toilet that runs all the time. I didn't realize how much water I was losing and how much I was paying for that water. Again, they were able to look up the price for the job, they had the parts and equipment in the truck and were able to fix the toilet right away. Both jobs were completed within two hours. The price of the jobs was exactly as quoted before they began. I don't know if the cost was more or less than the competition because I didn't get any other quotes. I am very happy with Waterworks - they arrived when they said they would, they cleaned up the work area, they were very friendly and offered a lot of useful information on the plumbing in my home. I suppose that the real test is the longevity of the repairs that they did, but for now I am happy with the repairs.

    Water Leakage - Basement

    Recently we had Waterworks Plumbing work done at our home. And I have to say their team did a great and clean job. Their staff was courteous, and had delivered an extremely clean job. The rep. came in on time, had a look and had identified the pipe leak promptly. He brought in all the materials the next day and had diagnosed and complted it. And that's what I call experience and a dedicated company. I definitely recommened them to anyone. keep up the good work

    outside faucet replacement

    I was so happy with WaterWorks Plumbing and Drain! Mike was extremely professional: he explained in detail the work he was going to do, he gave me a quote from a printed resource he had (AND he stuck to the quote), he suggested ways to improve my current outdoor faucet set-up... I could not be more pleased with the work he did.

    Hot water heater repair

    We were very happy with the service. They were able to fix my tank-less water heater which was leaking. The plumber installed an upgraded component as the previous installer had cut corners and installed a cheaper part. He also fixed our sink and bath tub spout and kitchen sink drain. The work was done quickly and cleanly and this is definitely a company worth having on your speed dial.

    Kitchen Sink Faucet leaking

    I called Waterworks after seeing them on this website and seeing the great reviews and high ranking. The communication over the phone was very good and Michael called me back fairly quickly and scheduled the appointment for 5 days away (over the long weekend which is why it took so long i believe). Michael called ahead of arriving as promised and was very professional and clean. He fixed my sink in about an hour and installed a new faucet. He left my house as clean as when he arrived. I would use them again if i had a plumbing emergency, but it would be very handy if their website had a ballpark figure of prices. I understand that each job is different and they can't 100% quote over the phone until they see the work, but for those of us new homeowners with limited knowledge on a very fixed income it would save the heart attack of the price. Michael did tell me about the function on homestars where you can see what others have paid for similar jobs. I truly wish i had known that before having someone come out so i might have saved the $60 fee for assessment if i hadn't gone ahead with the work due to the cost (which i truly couldn't afford, but couldn't throw away $60 either). That being said Michael was very professional and i assume that all companies would have charged us the same, if not more.

    Answer from pro:

    Hi Natasha in Toronto - You are absolutely correct, each job is different which is why it is not only difficult but quite possibly misleading to give pricing over the phone. Our Technicians are skilled in assessing the problem but they really need to see it in order to do so professionally and accurately. Once they evaluate the situation, our Technicians always give exact, upfront pricing for the work before starting. We are glad that we were able to go the extra mile to get the problem solved for you. From the Team @ Water Works Plumbing & Drains Inc.

    Dishwasher Installation

    Mike, the plumber who installed my new dishwasher was professional and courteous in all aspects. He provided me with a quote and delivered a high quality service. He was also able to inform me of a notable problem with the current water pipes that are being used in my building. I have since taken these concerns to the management of my building. I would definitely recommend Water Works Plumbing to anyone searching for a high quality job at reasonable prices.
