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
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.
How Do You Know If You Need Your Sewer Drain Repaired or Replaced?
If you think there’s something wrong with your sewer drain, but you aren’t quite sure, please don’t DIY the solution. The best thing you can do is call Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing Services. We will perform a free, no-obligation drain inspection and come up with a solution for your drain repair.
Some of the symptoms you
should definitely call us about include:
Pipes that are broken, or
have visible cracks, are offset, or completely collapsed
Blockages, which may be
due to grease or foreign objects, that can disrupt water flow
Corrosion from deterioration
of older pipes breaking down with are
“Bellied” pipes: a badly
installed pipe may sink too low to work properly
Leaks at the joints of
pipes due to the seals between parts degrading
Roots from trees and
shrubs causing damage to the pipelines
Old pipes deteriorating
and becoming a serious problem.
If any of these problems
apply to you, we can assess the problem and offer the best solutions to repair
your drains.
What Are the Drain Replacement Methods?
In Ottawa, you have a few options for drain replacement methods. Our no-obligation inspection will give us insight into which option may be best suited to your drain repair. Your choices for drain service include:
Traditional repair: A trench is dug to gain access to the underground pipes. We may use heavy construction equipment to excavate your lawn, and refill the area to complete the repair. The traditional repair has the advantage of exposing the problem to our experts (and everyone else) to see.
Trenchless repair: A method of pipe repair that leaves your lawn relatively undisturbed. A video inspection is performed, and holes are dug at the beginning and end of the damaged section of pipe. No trench is required.
Pipe bursting: New pipe is passed through old, damaged pipe. The old pipe bursts as the new drainage system is set. This is best for PVC, clay, concrete, iron, terracotta and other pipe systems.
Pipe relining: While this method involves some digging, it is less than the traditional method. It creates a “pipe within a pipe”. Pipe relining is best used to seal cracks, and repair holes, and damage caused by roots and rust.
Trenchless Drain Repair vs Traditional
Ottawans can claim a few advantages using trenchless drain repair over traditional repairs, like:
#1. Trenchless drain repair will save your time
Trenchless drain repair can be completed in one day. The most time-consuming parts are the video inspections at the beginning and the end, and drilling the repair holes. A traditional method can cause so much disruption to your household for days. During that time, you can’t use the bathroom, shower, do laundry, or do any activity where the water goes down the drain.
#2. Threnchless drain repair will save your money
A trenchless repair is performed using seamless pipes, which don’t have joints like traditional pipes. Seamless pipes are made from HDPE, which is an extremely robust material that will last for decades and you will save some amount of money.
#3. Trenchless drain repair will help system to work better
Since seamless pipes use HDPE, they are less likely to need repairs than traditional pipes. Recall that trenchless repairs don’t have joints. This may result in better flow than you initially had from traditional sewer pipes.
Sewer Replacement Cost
Our best estimate of sewer replacement costs comes from our no-obligation inspection. Call us today to schedule one. Every case is different, but the sooner you call, the faster we can address the situation.
Implementing a trenchless
drain repair is less expensive than a traditional repair. Through its robust material HDPE, a
trenchless repair will normally have lower maintenance costs throughout its
life.
