Drain inspection in Ottawa

Drain Inspections

When a drain problem keeps coming back or the cause of a blockage isn't clear, a closer look can help determine what is happening inside the drain system. Environmental Plumbing provides drain inspections for Ottawa homeowners dealing with recurring or difficult-to-diagnose drain problems.

Depending on the situation, an inspection can help identify the location and nature of a problem before deciding what should happen next. The findings may point toward drain cleaning, a repair or further evaluation of a possible sewer line problem.

The goal is simple: understand what is happening inside the drain before deciding on the appropriate next step.

Toilet Won’t Clear?

Clogged Toilet Service

A toilet that will not flush properly, keeps backing up or begins overflowing can point to a blockage in the toilet or the drain connected to it. Environmental Plumbing provides clogged toilet service in Ottawa to help determine what is causing the problem.

Some toilet clogs are isolated to the fixture, while repeated blockages or problems affecting other drains may indicate an issue farther along the drainage system. Understanding where the blockage is occurring helps determine the appropriate next step.

If the toilet is overflowing, avoid repeatedly flushing it. Tell us what is happening and we'll help you discuss the next step and service availability.

The source of a leak isn't always directly above or beside the place where you notice the water. Looking at the affected plumbing and surrounding area can help determine the source before deciding on the appropriate repair.

Gary and Dan came over quickly during the pandemic lockdown for an emergency repair to the shower, which had a leak that damaging the ceiling right below the tub on the first floor. They asked all the relevant questions to make sure the site was safe and healthy and came with appropriate PPE. They assessed the issue, found 2 problems and worked quickly to fix them.

Today was the third time I had Environmental Plumbing come out. Dan was on time, so professional and quickly identified the plumbing problem with the tap in our garage for the hose which we use for the garden. The problem was ME. To save what is left of my dignity, I will not go into detail. Suffice it to say that Dan was gracious, understanding and very fair. I can say the same for Gary. This company is a real jewel and I know that they are dependable for any future issues. I heartily recommend them to anyone who needs a plumber.

Helpful Home Tips

Practical Plumbing Tips for Ottawa Homes

A little plumbing awareness can make it easier to spot changes around your home. Here are a few simple things Ottawa homeowners can watch for between plumbing visits.

🔎

Watch for Leaks and Corrosion

Occasionally look around visible pipes, faucets and plumbing connections for moisture, corrosion or other changes. If something looks unusual, consider having it checked.

💧

Notice Changes in Water Pressure

A noticeable change in water pressure may be worth investigating, especially if it affects several fixtures or appears suddenly.

🚰

Don't Ignore Drips or Water

If you notice a dripping fixture, moisture beneath a sink or water appearing where it normally shouldn't, take a closer look rather than assuming it will disappear on its own.

🍳

Keep Grease Out of Drains

Avoid pouring cooking grease or oil down the drain. Let grease cool and dispose of it appropriately instead of washing it into your plumbing.

🛟

Use Drain Screens

Drain screens can help catch hair, food particles and other debris before they enter the drain. Clean the screens regularly so water can continue to pass through them.

🔧

Know Your Water Shut-Offs

Know where the main water shut-off and accessible fixture shut-off valves are located. That information can be useful if a leak or other plumbing problem occurs.

⚠️

Be Careful With Drain Cleaners

Before repeatedly using chemical products on a slow or blocked drain, consider finding out what is causing the problem. Recurring drainage issues may need a closer look.

❄️

Pay Attention During Cold Weather

Ottawa winters can expose plumbing to freezing temperatures. Pay particular attention to plumbing in colder areas of the home and to outdoor water connections as temperatures drop.

Something Doesn't Look Right?
