Our work, aisle by aisle

Drains and sewers

From a slow bathroom sink to roots in the main line, drain work is the most common call we get. Older clay and cast-iron laterals under North York streets make camera inspections especially useful.

• Kitchen, bathroom and floor drain cleaning
• Main sewer clearing, camera inspection and repair
• Hydro jetting for grease and scale

Water heaters

Tank and tankless, gas and electric. We repair, replace and descale. If your tank is rented, we will help you work out who handles what.
