Plumbing Inspection Services

If you suspect you have a problem with your plumbing it’s always a good idea to call on a professional plumber to come and perform a full inspection. It’s been reported that the average home owner will let a leaking faucet leak for at least 6 months before doing something about it – that is a lot of water wasted down the drain. By calling a pro plumber to come and fix it fast these people could have saved a lot of money.

There are a variety of circumstances when inspections can help to save money and solve plumbing problems fast. Our inspection services include:

Camera Inspection

Utilizing the latest in plumbing technology, our plumbers can see your drain or sewer with unprecedented detail. A CCTV drain camera is a full-HD camera on the end of long cable. The cable is inserted into your drain and the video is displayed on a monitor for the plumber to see, various aspects of information are recorded such as the length of the cable deployed and audio in some cases. This allows us to see all of the imperfections or problems that may be present such as:

• Blockages and clogs in the pipes
• Breaks, fractures, cracks, or other structural damage
• Insect, animal, or root infestation
• Sag, belly, or settled areas of sewer or drain pipes

With this information we can then diagnose and repair these problems with ease. Camera inspection is also a very useful tool to inspect repairs after they have been performed to ensure they have been done correctly. You can rely on the experienced professionals from Absolute Draining & Plumbing for your drain camera inspection needs.

Leak Detection

Discovering leaks is a very important aspect of home and plumbing maintenance. If you suspect you have a leak consult with us, our professional plumbers are very experienced in a variety of leak detection procedures and circumstances.

One of the most obvious signs that a property or homeowner has a leak is an unusually high water bill; since you typically use about the same water every given period if it suddenly jumps in usage with no other plausible explanation it must be because of a new water leak. Finding a water leak can be quite difficult for someone who has no experience in this area.

What should you do if you suspect you have a water leak? Calling in a professional to perform a systematic leak detection process is always advisable since you can be sure that the leak has been found and any associated problems addressed.

Water Service Upgrades

One of our specialties over the years has been providing water service upgrades for properties all over Toronto. Upgrading a properties water service has become popular for a variety of reasons:

Lead Pipe Removal

The majority of properties built before the 1950s have lead pipes in their plumbing. The removal of lead pipes is important to ensure there is no contamination in a properties water supply. This is especially a concern for homes where pregnant women or children may be consuming lead contaminated water.

Increase Water Pressure

Fixing low water pressure is a concern for many homeowners. As the years pass more homes are being renovated to include plumbing infrastructure that places a higher demand on the existing water supply, for instance the addition of hot tubs, showers, bathrooms, kitchens, and dishwashers. Sometimes all it takes is someone to be using the shower, watering the grass, and doing a load of dishes in the dishwasher and you’ve got hardly any water pressure at all.
Increasing your water pressure, when it is caused by a lack of water supply and high demand, is as simple as increasing the diameter of the water service pipes that connect your home to the City water mains. This allows for more water to pass to your property meeting the needs of your home.

Toronto Water Meter Program Compliance

The City of Toronto has decided to upgrade their water meters to a new meter that allows them to remotely take water readings. One of the requirements is that the water service must not have lead pipes or galvanized pipes, otherwise these new water meters leak and have other problems. This means there are quite a number of homeowners that must upgrade their water service to meet these needs.

New Water Service Installation

Perhaps you’re expanding the infrastructure on your property or having a new home built? In such a case you will need new water service installed to deliver clean, fresh water to your home or new building. Toronto has fairly stringent bylaws that must be adhered to when installing new water service and that is why seeking an insured, licensed plumber should be a priority for all new home owners and builders.

Plumbing Rough-in

We perform all plumbing rough-in services. What exactly is a plumbing rough-in? During the construction of a new home or building, once the carpenters and builders have completed the majority of their work has been completed the plumbing needs to be installed before the walls, floors, and bulkheads are closed up.

This phase of the plumbing installation is referred to as the rough-in plumbing because there are typically no finish aspects being installed such as faucets, sinks, or toilets being installed during the rough-in. Coordinating the plumbing rough-in with a visit from the building inspector is fairly common to ensure that all elements have been installed in accordance with the building code. For all of your plumbing rough-in

Thawing Frozen Water Pipes

The climate in the City of Toronto is definitely on the colder side, especially during the winter months where temperatures can reach -20 degrees celcius. Pipes that are located outside, under a crawlspace, or in unheated areas such as basements are very susceptible to becoming frozen. When water freezes it also expands, which can lead to burst pipes. If you happen to have a pipe that’s frozen there are ways to go about thawing them that are safe and low-risk.

We provide full Toronto area pipe thawing services; if you are experiencing an issue with frozen pipes we solve your problem.
