Common drain problems in Toronto homes

Many older Toronto houses still have original clay or cast-iron sewer pipes, and mature street trees send roots into joints and cracks. The result is slow drains, gurgling and basement floor drains that back up during heavy rain. A camera inspection shows exactly what’s going on inside the line, so the fix matches the problem instead of guessing.

If your basement has flooded before, a backwater valve can help stop sewage from flowing back into the house when the city sewer is overloaded. The City of Toronto has offered a basement flooding protection subsidy for eligible work like this, so check the City’s current program before you book.

24/7 emergency plumber in Toronto

Burst pipes, sewer backups and overflowing drains don’t wait for business hours. We answer calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. While you wait, shut off the main water valve if water is leaking, and stop using sinks, toilets and appliances if the drains are backing up.

Frequently asked questions

What should I do if my basement is flooding?
Stay away from water near outlets or electrical equipment, stop running water in the house, and call us. If the water is coming up through a floor drain, the cause is usually a blocked or overloaded sewer line.

Why does my basement floor drain back up when it rains?
Usually the main sewer line is partly blocked, often by tree roots, or the city sewer is overloaded. A camera inspection tells us which, and a backwater valve can protect the basement in the future.

Which parts of Toronto do you serve?
