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

Adam Shapiro

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

Sunny Gurm

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

Sami M

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

Doug Willard

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

Patrick Lynn

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

Ellen Bruce

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.

JC Gobeil

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.

In Ottawa, flooding and basement leaks are common problems. If you’re looking to waterproof your home, we can provide several options to help keep your basement dry. Using a multi-layer solution is the best way to protect your home and minimize unseen dangers. 

• Backwater valve installation. The backwater valve is a one-way valve between the city sewer line and your house. It allows water to flow from your house to the sewer but prevents the water from flowing in the opposite direction.
• Weeping Tile. These are pipes that transmit groundwater away from your home to a collection point, like a sump basin. The pipes may be installed around the outer or inner perimeter of the home.
• Sump Pump. A sump pump consists of a sump basin located beneath your basement floor, and a pump. Water is collected in the basin, where it is sent away from the house. When installing a sump pump, it is best to install a backup power system. This allows for the pump to work during a power outage caused by a storm or other fault.

How Does a Sump Pump Work?

Your house may not need a sump pump. The best way to determine your house’s waterproofing needs is to call us for a free, no-obligation inspection. We’ll assess your home and determine which solutions should be applied.

A sump pump works by being connected to your weeping tile. Water is collected by the weeping tile and drains into the sump pump basin. When the water rises to a specific level, the sump pump turns on automatically to drain the sump basin. The water is deposited pipes to a place away from your home’s foundation.

Installing Your Pump

For the best operation of your pump, it should be installed by a licensed professional plumber like Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing Services. We install each of the components and make sure the connections between them are solid. In our installation process, we consider the optimum position to place each item for maximizing flood prevention.

Selecting us for your service means that you can save on sump pump installation.  We can guide you in applying for rebates from the City of Ottawa that drastically reduce your project costs.

Choosing the Right Pump

Pumps may be automatic (with a backup power supply) or manually driven. Manual ones may be cheaper, but the automatic pumps are usually recommended in most cases. When choosing a sump pump, you should consider factors like horsepower, voltage, cord length, and backup power sources. It’s a lot to consider. We’ll work with you to decide if you need a sump pump and the best one for your home. 

Battery Backup Sump Pumps

A battery backup sump pump will afford peace of mind and protection should your existing sump pump break down. Unfortunately, this isn’t an uncommon event. Whenever Ottawa experiences a major rainstorm or the snow starts melting after a bad winter with tons of snow, our phones at Dr. Pipe ring off the hook. The reason is that homeowners across Ottawa are worried since their sump pumps aren’t working properly or at at. In such cases, a battery backup sump pump may have saved their bacon.

That’s especially true for homeowners residing in regions with a high water table. If you own a home in such an area, you could be in trouble whether it’s raining cats and dogs or a ton of snow is melting quickly. If there’s a power outage and you lack a battery-powered sump pump, your basement could get flooded. It’s cheaper to get battery-operated sump pump installations and regular sump pump maintenance to ensure your pump works than to correct the fallout after basement flooding.

Weeping Tile

An essential component of a working submersible sump system is a weeping tile. Your pump won’t effectively or efficiently eradicate water from your residence’s foundation if the weeping tile isn’t working correctly. Have you noticed water damage on your floor – even while your sump pump appears to be working? If so, your weeping tile is probably blocked. If your home was constructed before 1975, clay weeping tiles were likely used.

Clay can unfortunately become brittle. We rarely see homes with functional clay weeping tiles. At Dr. Pipe, we can check your weeping tile, give you an assessment, and help with basement water removal and waterproofing. We offer the plumbing services you need, whether you require sump pump repair, help with your drainage system, or assistance to install a sump pump.

What Does a Sump Pump Cost with a City of Ottawa Rebate?

Each sump pump installation is different. It’s best if you call us for a free, no-obligation inspection. This will help us determine what system components work best for your needs and your budget. We can provide assistance with preparing the paperwork to take advantage of rebates offered by the City of Ottawa.
