These guys are great.. I had a list of issues and annoyances, from water pressure to replacements/additions and they sorted it all out very quickly and with top quality. I never at any point got the impression they were taking advantage and now have them on speed dial for anything else I may need done. Highly recommended.. A+++

We had a frustrating experience with another plumbing company that simply didn’t care, so finding Ron was a breath of fresh air. He is truly skilled at what he does.. the toilet and fixture installation were done beautifully and with real attention to detail. What impressed us most was that he went above and beyond without us even asking. We were planning to purchase an additional item, but Ron just took care of it. That kind of skill combined with genuine care for his customers is so hard to find. We will absolutely be calling Ron again for any future plumbing needs!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your business. Sincerely Ron and Max

This is a review of Maxim Osadchyi Maxim Osadchyi P.Eng. Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing Services Division of Osmaks Inc. If I could give a zero stars. I would. I hired Dr. Pipe (Osmaks) in October 2023 to install two alcove-style bathtub, and tub trim, faucet and shower head in my two bathrooms. I told Maksim and Ron (his son) that after they were done, I had a tile installer booked to do the tile around the tub. During the job, they didn’t level/shim the tub, didn’t level/center the shower head line, ripped out the floor plank in front of one tub (but not the second one), and destroyed baseboards (see attached pictures). Generally, left my bathrooms a disaster. When my tile installer came to do the tile job, he notified me that the tubs were not level. I immediately contacted Dr. Pipe and Maksim gave me every excuse in the book (my floor was not straight, etc.). Although he offers “emergency 24-hour service”, he couldn’t be bothered to send someone to level my tub until Monday. Hence, my tile installer could not finish his job and I was left without the use of both my bathtubs for over a week. After work in my basement, I had water flooding. Not once, but twice. Destroyed my brand new vanity that Dr. Pipe installed. Disrupted my tenant. Still no resolution to the damaged vanity. Maxim Osadchyi also took $150 for the installation of the shower trim and I had to pause the project for some time. Texted him that I would let him know when he could come back to finish. No response. Then when I reached out to finish the trim or refund the $150, he refused to do either. Scamming me out of $150. I do not recommend this company due to their unethical behaviour.
Response from the owner:Dear Alexandra, Thank you for your review. On October 17 and 18, 2023, we installed and tested two bathtubs at your property. Two days later, you contacted us regarding concerns about one of the tubs. During that conversation, you used abusive language and slurs, which we do not tolerate. You also relayed concerns raised by your tile and drywall contractor, whom you later dismissed, regarding the tub allegedly being out of level. On October 23, 2023, I personally attended the site to inspect your concerns. My inspection confirmed that the bathtub had been installed level. The photographs from that visit show a properly leveled tub, while the surrounding drywall and wall surfaces were uneven and not level. You withheld $100 for the installation of the faucet trim in the second bathroom because you had terminated your tile and drywall contractor, and there was no confirmed timeline for the completion of the remaining work. Our last site visit and conversation occurred in October 2023, nearly three years ago. Since that time, we have not received any further complaints or reports of problems related to our work. As more than two years and eight months have passed since the project began, and the delays resulted from the site not being ready for completion on your end, we consider the agreement inactive and the project closed. Our records indicate that the remaining installation work could not proceed due to incomplete site preparations. Accordingly, we cannot accept responsibility for the resulting delays or provide any reimbursement. Sincerely, Maxim Osadchyi, P.Eng.

Basement floor drain was backing up, creating a very smelly lake on the floor. Without trying to upsell me, Ron explained the options honestly, clearly, and patiently and understood that we were strapped for cash. He snaked the line, which was the least costly fix, kept at it until he was satisfied with the drainage rate, and cleaned up everything. The price was as listed on the Dr. Pipe website, and far, far better than what I was able to get other, larger, better-known plumbing companies in Ottawa to quote me over the phone. It's also worth noting that these companies charge about $90 to actually come over and give an estimate. Dr. Pipe does not. If they come over and give an estimate and you decline to have the work done at that time, they're okay with that, and there's no charge. Overall, I was deeply impressed by Ron's competence and honesty, and his commitment when he put in extra time to make sure the job was done right. Many Ottawa plumbers are blatantly unethical and use predatory pricing on people who are in a jam. Dr. Pipe is the opposite. I can't praise them highly enough.
Response from the owner:Thank you Barry for your business. We are family owned and operated local business and always happy to help our customers with different options and services depending on their needs and budget. Thank you kindly for your honest review. Sincerely, Ron Osadchyi and Maxim Osadchyi

The roots from the tree in our front yard had found its way into our sewer pipe. After consultation on the available options, Dr. Pipe (Max and Ron) provided their expertise in solving this issue by inserting a liner in a very timely, efficient and very professional manner. They were friendly and consciencious personnel to work with.
Response from the owner:Hi Hans. Thank you for your business. It was our pleasure to help you with roots penetration in the drain. PVC reinforce liner will protect your drain line from roots and will work perfectly for years to come

​I had a minor plumbing panic when the tip of my toilet cleaner bottle fell off and got stuck deep in the drain. I was worried about a major clog and called Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing. He was incredible— He talked me through exactly what to do over the phone and reassured me that the piece was small enough that it wouldn't damage my pipes. I truly appreciate his honesty and expertise instead of him just trying to sell me a service I didn't need. I’m very grateful for the help and will definitely call them again for any future emergencies!
Response from the owner:Sammy L, thank you for your review. We’re glad we could help you over the phone and give honest advice without an unnecessary service call. We appreciate your trust and look forward to helping again if you ever need us. Sincerely, Dr. Pipe.

Our team of skilled plumbing experts is ready to handle your toilet installation in Ottawa, Barrhaven, Nepean, Kanata, Orleans, Carlington, Old Ottawa South, Vanier, Gloucester, Embrun. 

We all know that toilets are necessary, but ignoring toilet maintenance, including minor repairs, only results in a bigger problem.

Toilets can take abuse, but eventually, they all need replacing. So when you need toilet installation in Ottawa, don’t panic! Instead, call an experienced professional to install it right for you the first time.

Toilet Repair Vs Toilet Replacement

We handle plumbing service calls for malfunctioning toilets all the time. Many of them involve just a simple fix – a clog or leak that is easily rectified. Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing is always available to repair or unblock your toilet. There are times, however, when a toilet requires total replacement.

Signs Your Toilet Needs a Repair

Here are some of the most common toilet problems which may require plumbing service:

  • A constantly running toilet
  • Leaks and puddles surrounding the toilet or on the floor
  • Leaks from the toilet tank
  • Noise coming from the toilet assembly
  • Poor flushing pressure due to clogs
  • Low water levels in the toilet bowl
  • Toilet is unsteady or wobbling
  • Constant issues with the toilet from the above and other plumbing issues

Signs That You Need a New Toilet

A leaky toilet may need replacing, but that doesn’t mean you should delay if you’re unsure about the state of your toilet. 

A faulty toilet is one thing—the real problems happen when a flooding toilet or backed-up sewer causes expensive water damage. Watch out for these signs so you can eliminate a toilet disaster.

Sign #1: Your toilet is old

  • It’s not like you can check for the manufacturer’s date on a toilet, but if your house or property was built in the 1960s or earlier, it’s probably time to replace it.  Older toilets are prone to cracks and damage, and they also use much more water to flush out the bowl than a modern toilet. New toilets are built tough and efficient, and they’re less expensive to run because they use less water.

Sign #2: Your toilet isn’t anchored properly

  • Does your toilet wobble? That’s not a good sign! Whether it’s an age-related issue, improper installation, or either a damaged wax ring or subfloor, please call a plumber immediately when you start feeling your toilet moving under you.

Sign #3: There are cracks on your toilet

  • See a crack on your toilet? Call a plumber immediately to repair or replace your toilet. Even if it’s a small crack, it can cause significant damage because cracked toilets can’t function properly and often leak badly enough to cause water damage.

When to Hire a Plumber to Replace a Toilet

While a toilet replacement can certainly be a DIY (do-it-yourself) project, there are reasons why you might not attempt such a job yourself. Here are three of them, illustrating why going with a professional plumber is the smart choice:

#1. Knowledge and Plumbing Related Experience 

The professional plumber you hire to install your new toilet will have know-how and experience that will give you peace of mind that the job is done 100% correctly. Plumbers have the expertise along with knowledge of the many unforeseen circumstances that can complicate the job. Your professional plumber can work within the space they are given, and ensure all components and installed parts are watertight – the last thing you want from your new toilet is a leak or a flood. A good plumber will also check adjoining pipes, and warn you of potential issues – the average DIYer may not possess this skill set.

Toilet Installation

#2. Do-it-Yourself Often Costs More in the Long Term

A DIYer looking to save money may have the best of intentions, but attempting a toilet replacement without the in-depth knowledge of a plumber can result in lots of trouble down the road, or even during the course of the project. That DIY project, which winds up impacting both the toilet install and the adjacent piping, could wind up costing you much more in the long run, in terms of both dollars and aggravation, in the form of leaks and potential floods.

#3. A Professional Toilet Installation Will Save You Time

Professional plumbers tend to work with speed and efficiency. They understand your time is money, and they can quickly address issues that come up during the job. Toilet installations are often complex, including picking out the right toilet for the space, and having the right tools and materials on hand for the installation.  The right tools themselves are extensive – including drills, saws, caulking, wrenches, screwdrivers, etc. A DIYer has to ensure this all up front, or brace themselves for serious trouble during the project. When you hire a professional, experienced plumber, all this is looked after.

If you’re a do-it-yourselfer, we urge you to do your research online first, and be very very careful with any plumbing repair job. One little mistake can result in water damage costing you thousands of dollars.

Toilet Installation Costs

The cost of installing a toilet depends on what kind of toilet bowl you choose and how well your existing plumbing functions.

Toilet Bowl Prices

The price range on a new toilet is between $125 to $6,500, depending on brand and style.

New Toilet Installation

When the existing plumbing functions well, a basic installation is around $300.

The cost to install can go as high as $800 if the plumbing system isn’t functioning right or an urgent repair is required. So what’s the takeaway? 

Toilet installation in Ottawa should never be considered a DIY project. Instead, call in a professional to get the job done right!

FAQs

1. How much does toilet installation cost in Ottawa?

Toilet installation cost in Ottawa depends on the toilet type, plumbing condition, and whether any parts like the flange or shut-off valve need replacement. Standard installations are usually straightforward, while older plumbing or floor repairs can add complexity. A licensed plumber can assess the setup and provide an accurate estimate before work begins.

2. How long does it take to install a toilet?

Most toilet installations can be completed in about an hour. If the existing toilet needs to be removed, the flange repaired, or connections updated, it may take a bit longer. The timeline mainly depends on the condition of the existing plumbing and flooring.

3. Do I need a professional plumber to install a toilet in Ottawa?

Professional installation is strongly recommended. Proper alignment, sealing, and secure connections prevent leaks, odours, and instability. Ottawa homes—especially older ones—may have uneven floors or aging flanges that require adjustment to ensure the toilet sits correctly and functions reliably.

4. Can you replace an old toilet with a modern low-flow model?

Yes. Replacing older toilets with modern low-flow or high-efficiency models is very common in Ottawa homes. Newer toilets use less water per flush while maintaining strong performance. A plumber can confirm compatibility with your existing plumbing and install the new unit securely.

5. What problems can occur if a toilet is installed incorrectly?

Improper installation can lead to leaks at the base, sewer odours, weak flushing, rocking movement, or long-term floor damage. Even small alignment issues can compromise the wax seal or flange connection. Correct installation ensures the toilet remains stable and leak-free over time.

6. Do you remove and dispose of the old toilet during installation?

Yes. Professional toilet installation typically includes safe removal of the existing unit, preparation of the mounting surface, and proper disposal. This ensures the new toilet is installed on a clean, secure base without leftover debris or damaged components affecting performance.
