Sincerely, Max and Ron
I interviewed several plumbing companies for my complete drain replacement project before selecting “Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing” to do the job. I was reassured by the respectful communication style of Maxim (owner), and his willingness to listen to my preferences, based on what I had learned prior to committing to this project. Scheduling was flexible, and the job was completed in a very timely manner. Andryi (main plumber) was extremely experienced in this type of work, and was very tidy in his approach. He was able to access all of the original drain pipes by creating “partial” trenches, and working through those areas under the concrete slab, without having to dismantle certain finished parts of my basement. All of the concrete debris and aggregate (stones) were placed in feed bags while the job was being done, which kept the mess at a minimum and facilitated the process of back filling once the work was done. I was given a choice of styles of back water valve, with the advantages of each shown to me. All in all, the entire process was a comfortable experience, despite the “invasive” elements of such a project. Andryi, Ron and Max were all very pleasant to deal with and I would highly recommend this company for any plumbing work.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your business. It was our pleasure to work for you. Sincerely, Max, Andryi and Ron
Honest and clear explanation. And a good price. Thanks.
Response from the owner:Hi Adam. Thank you for your business. Let us know if you need more service. Sincerely Maxim, Andryi and Ron
I highly recommend these guys! A note from my wife who was very appreciate of the work done by Max and Ron:
“Let me set the stage. I am a new mother attempting my best to function on the small pockets of sleep that are offered randomly daily. We were also mostly exclusively cloth diapering at the time. I was heavily dependent on my dishwasher and laundry machine. Enter in a plumbing emergency! The downstairs laundry sink starts backing up and overflowing. Turns out it’s going to require breaking the concrete and replacing some pipes.
This stressful situation could have easily turned out to be a nightmare but it was handled with such care and professionalism. Highly recommended their plumbing services! Honest hard working professionals. I was extremely grateful for their help and expertise! They were efficient and amazing. 5+ stars” – Dominique
Response from the owner:Thank you for your business Sunny. Let us know if you need more plumbing services. Sincerely, Ron and Max
Dr. Pipe did replacement underground drain inside of the basement for my house with a very reasonable price. They did it very professionally and took pictures during the job for me. Thanks Dr. Pipe
Response from the owner:Hi Sami. Thanks for your business. Let me know if you need more plumbing services. Sincerely, Max, Ron and Andriy
The work done by Dr Pipe was timely and of the highest quality. I could not imagine a more accomodating group to work with. Max was extremely helpful when dealing with my insurance company. His intervention got the insurance company to make the maximum payment the policy could cover. Without it the insurance company was only offering about 1/3 of their final payment. I have no reservations recommending Dr Pipe to anyone. I will always call them first for any of my needs in the future.
Response from the owner:Thank you Dough for your business. It was pleasure to help you with your drain underground pipe relining project and I glad that insurance company cover almost all cost. Sincerely Max, Andryi and Ron
Maxim and his team were very helpful in setting up our flood prevention system. They were very detail oriented with their design and explained it to us so that we understood the system. They were patient and supportive with rebate applications, and were available to start work very quickly. They communicated well and the work was done well. Hopefully we’ll never have to use our sump pump and backwater values but I am confident they will protect us. Very happy and would recommend Dr. Pipe and Osmaks plumbing
Response from the owner:Hi, Patrick. Thank you very much for your business. Sincerely, Max, Andryi and Ron
Great service and pricing. They were able to start the work quickly and had it finished in one day. Courteous workers. The water line replacement was done with very little impact on land scaping.
Response from the owner:Hi Ellen. Thank you very much for your business. Let us know if you need more plumbing work. Sincerely, Max, Ron and team.
I definitely would not hesitate recommending Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing to friends, neighbors, and anyone else. I appreciated the clear and no-nonsense communication with Maxim, and the great job his crew did. I needed to have my old lead water service line replaced, and opted for the trenchless “torpedo method” offered by Dr. Pipe. The guys got here bright and early in the morning, and by 3pm everything was done with only one small excavation at the city valve (filled and ready to patch up), and left the basement and driveway cleaner than they were before they got here. They got right down to business and worked hard, fast and professionally until it was done, with only a short break for lunch. And it cost about half of what other companies had quoted me for digging a trench and messing up the whole property (and taking two or three days to do it). True, we were lucky the torpedo didn’t hit any big rock, but even if it had, it would most likely still have been a great choice (with less disruption) than the others.
Response from the owner:Thank you Mr.Gobeil for your business. It was pleasure to help you with your old lead main water line replacement. Let me know if you need any plumbing work in the future. Sincerely Max, Denis and Sergey.
What Steps Should You Take If the Basement Is Flooded?
One of the worst things you can experience as a homeowner is a flooded basement. If you face a flooding emergency scenario, we at Dr.Pipe Drain and Plumbing recommend following these five steps:
- Most cases of basement flooding stem from heavy rains that cause groundwater flooding. Plumbing failure can also lead to emergency flooding situations. If you experience plumbing failure, turn off the failed plumbing immediately. You’ll need to be careful to avoid being electrified or contaminated by bacteria or viruses. So, avoid getting wet if at all possible.
- It’s also important that you contact a disaster restoration professional. They understand the ins and outs of pumping out water, drying out homes, and addressing any rot or mold problems. In order to avoid mold growth, have a disaster restoration expert visit your home within two days of the incident.
- When it’s safe to do so, remove your personal property. Beware of unsafe conditions caused by electricity or raw sewage. You may also want to take pictures of any damage. Your insurer will want to see evidence of damage caused by the flooding.
- If your homeowner’s insurance coverage includes flooding, contact your insurer. The company will explain your options and let you know what to do when you meet with your contractors.
- The next step is to research companies that specialize in basement waterproofing. Look into the products they offer and how these products compare to other products on the market. Find out their ratings, look at online reviews, and ask people you know for recommendations. When you find a contractor that fits the bill, ask if their staff members are fully insured.

Flooding Emergency Service Cost
The plumber cost for flood damage cleanup can range from $4.00 to $10.00 per square foot. However, the expense could go well beyond that if there is standing or contaminated water. If more materials and equipment are needed, the cost could climb even more.
What Causes Basement Flooding?
- House constructed in an unsuitable area. If a home’s lot grading is not designed well, surface drainage will be directed toward the residence. This can lead to flooding. Fixing the problem will involve reshaping the yard so that water flows away from, rather than toward, the house.
- Walls and floors sealed improperly. If the walls and floor aren’t properly waterproofed, water leakage and flooding are possible.
- Gutter clogged. If the gutters and downspouts are clogged up by leaves or debris, they may overflow during heavy rainfall. The water will eventually seep through the soil close to the house’s foundation and infiltrate the basement. Cleaning out the gutter system at least once annually will help prevent this problem.
- Sewer backup. If the sewer system becomes inundated with wastewater or stormwater, the water can back up into the home through floor drains, toilets, and sinks. Installing backwater valves can prevent backflows.
- Sump pump failure. Sump pumps are designed to protect basements from flooding. Homeowners need to inspect, clean out, and test sump pumps routinely. This will reduce the odds of them malfunctioning.
How to Prevent Basement Flooding – Measures for Future Protection
If you want to lessen the odds of experiencing stormwater flooding, consider the following tips:
- Check for leaks in the foundation, walls, windows, and floors. Repair leaks.
- Ensure the ground slopes away from the exterior walls of your residence. This might require working on your lot grading.
- Avoid creating a dam situation where water is retained near your home. So, be careful with your gardens.
- Remove leaves, dirt, and other things from your downspouts and your eaves. troughs. The downspouts should be directed no less than least six feet away from your residence.
No one wants to experience a flooding scenario. If you do face this unfortunate situation, the five tips mentioned above will help you get the flooding emergency service your need. You can count on us at Dr.Pipe Drain and Plumbing to help with all of your plumbing needs.
