Snaking drain

I had clogged pipes in the basement that were threatening to overflow a sink and threaten carpeted floors. Lou arrived at 9:00 a.m. the next morning, gave me a fair estimate, fixed the problem, cleaned up, and even gave some free advice before leaving.

Plumbing - stack replacement and exterior work

The Drainworks representative arrived promptly and provided a very fair estimate with a clear and complete explanation of the work to be done;replacement of an old, corroding and blocked stack. In order to access the work area many of our possessions had to be moved. Drainworks provided extra help in doing this. They also replaced exterior pipe very efficiently and even put topsoil down after backfilling the excavated area. At all times Armando provided excellent communication about the job in progress and answered all of our questions fully and honestly. In summary Drainworks was a pleasure to deal with and I recommend this company unreservedly.

Powder room toilet leaking

I was in doubt regard a drywall issue, so I posted a review here, they called me right away to clarify it. Which was great not only to validate this website ( that I rely on more and more) but also to show that the company cares about the costumer and about those reviews as well!
I could do business with them again.

storm line upgrade (plumbing)

We've used about 5 different plumbing companies for various small plumbing issues since moving into our home in Bayview Village in 2001. Each experience made us extremely leery about dealing with this profession. It seemed once each of the plumbing companies got their hands on the deposit, they would take care of larger more profitable work elsewhere before returning later to complete our jobs. Or they'd offer to do other work for you "on the side" and in "cash only". We needed to get our storm line upgraded to reduce the possibility of flooding, and didn't know where to turn. We noticed Drainworks was used frequently in our neighbourhood and called them for an estimate. What an incredible difference. Armando, our service guy, was efficient, knowledgeable, honest and patient -- and got the job done quickly and did it extremely well. We are totally impressed and would recommend this company to our neighbours, friends, colleagues -- it's incredibly reassuring to know that when you have a problem with your plumbing you can turn to a company that is reliable, pleasant to deal with, efficient, really competent and can get the job done well and fast. Thank you, Drainworks.
