Ontario Drain Cleaning Services

We have the equipment to clear any sort of drain in or around your home. We've seen it all thanks to our decades of practical experience.

Drainage in the Kitchen

Because your kitchen sink is frequently used, it is not surprising that it has become clogged. Whether the cause of your slow drain is grease, fat, food debris, or a stray fork, our Ontario plumbers will take the time to clear the obstruction and leave your sink drain looking brand new.

Cleaning the drains in the bathroom

Isn't it essential to keep the drains in your bathroom in good functioning condition for overall hygiene and comfort in your home? From the sink to the shower, we have the resources, experience, and skills to handle your bathroom obstructions and inefficient drains.

Clogged Bathroom Sink

Our plumbers are well-equipped to unclog a clogged bathroom sink caused by soap scum, loose hair, or toothpaste. Excellent Service Plumbers in Ontario are on hand to clear the clog and clean away any leftover residue. This is done to prevent the clog from recurring in your drain.

Blocked Toilet

A plunger can help with minor obstructions, but larger ones should be handled by one of our Ontario plumbers. A clogged toilet can occur for a variety of reasons. This reduces the possibility of your toilet overflowing or sewage backup in your home.

Clogged shower and bathtub drains

Nothing is more inconvenient than a clogged shower or bathtub drain. While some do-it-yourself drain cleaning methods may provide temporary relief from a clog, it is critical that any buildup of human hair, pet hair, or soap scum be removed by a professional plumber.

Laundry Drainage

Laundry drains contribute to the overall comfort of your home. And, because we rely on our laundry rooms on a weekly, if not daily, basis, it's critical to give all of your laundry room drains the attention they deserve in order to make laundry day as easy as possible!

The Washing Machine Drains

Our washing machines must drain the water at the end of each cycle. If a drain becomes clogged, whether from lint or detergent residue, acting quickly can help to reduce the commotion caused by the clogged drain.

Drains for Kitchen Sinks

If you have a utility sink in your laundry room, cellar, or garage, you must take special care of these water fixtures to avoid clogs. Avoid utilizing utility sinks as garbage cans; not everything should or can be flushed down the drain.

Floor Drain Cleaning

Floor drains are extremely beneficial for averting significant water damage after a storm or during plumbing difficulties. This is why it's critical to get your floor drains inspected and cleaned on a regular basis. When dealing with any type of water in the home, our staff in Ontario will ensure that they are dependable and efficient.

Cleaning of Exterior Drains

Outdoor drains, like those in your home, require regular maintenance and care. Your home's outside drains are important for channeling water runoff away from the house, lowering the risk of flooding and other typical water damage. Outdoor drains can become clogged over time owing to the buildup of soil, sand, sticks, rocks, and other natural debris.

Main Drain Cleaning

The sewage line is the principal drain in your home. It can fluctuate in length from 12 to 24 inches, making it difficult to find clogs of any length. Our plumbers can execute the necessary cleaning and clog removal services to prevent sewage backup regardless of where your home's main drain is located.

Guttering on the roof

Roof drains, whether on a flat roof or along your gutters, must be cleaned and maintained on a regular basis, just like the other drains in your home. Water can overflow if your roof drainage is obstructed. This can cause roof leaks and other water damage to the exterior of your property.

Drains for Landscapes and Yards

Landscape and yard drains can help stop flooding after it rains, but they can get stopped up with leaves, mulch, dirt, soil, and other natural waste. You can make sure your drains are ready for any weather with the help of Top Service Plumbing in Ontario.

Sump pumps and basement drains

To keep your house from getting flooded or having sewage back up, make sure your basement drains are clear and test your sump pump often. With the help of Top Service Plumbing in Ontario, your system can get the maintenance it needs to make sure it doesn't flood when it rains hard.

How you can tell if a drain is stopped

Even though the severity of a clog can vary, you should call a plumber as soon as you notice one. If you know the signs of a stopped drain right away, our team can get to work right away and help you avoid expensive repairs and dangerous situations.

Listen or watch for the toilet to erupt.

If your toilet makes gurgling or popping sounds before, after, or even while flushing, there is probably a blockage somewhere in your plumbing system. The bubbles you see are caused by a blockage somewhere in your system. You can use a plunger to get rid of the clog, but a plumber in Ontario will be able to come up with a better answer.

Water Backs Up

If there is a backup of water or garbage in the house, you should call a professional as soon as possible. Not only does this mean that there is a blockage somewhere in your plumbing system, but it could also make your home dangerous for you and your family to live in. From the bathtub to the kitchen sink, any drain in the house can get clogged and cause a backup.

Very slowly, the water drains away.

A common and clear sign of a clogged drain is that water drains more slowly than normal. The water in your home's drains should move pretty quickly. If things are taking a lot longer than normal, this is a clear sign that there is a clog in your system. It is very important not to ignore this sign and to get trained experts to help as soon as possible.

Bad Odor

When there is a clog, there is a good chance that there will also be a bad smell. No matter what caused the clog—a pile of soap scum, hair, toothpaste, or food scraps—the smell will come from the decomposition that happens when things break down. After a while, the bad smell will travel through your system and start coming out of the other drains.

a few small puddles of water

Even though puddles of water that don't make sense aren't always a sign of a stopped drain, it's important to have a trained plumber look at them as soon as possible. This cuts down on how much water is lost, which lowers your monthly water bill. It also makes it less likely that water will hurt your house or yard. Lastly, it lets our staff find and get rid of any blockages that may be in your system.

Clogged drains are a nuisance, and knowing what causes them is important for two reasons: understanding your plumbing system and avoiding future clogs.

The Buildup of Garbage

Debris buildup is the most prevalent cause of drain obstructions. Soap residue, hair, and other debris can all get caught in drains and cause blockages. We regularly clear clients' drains of soap, hair, cooking oil or grease, food leftovers, and other natural detritus like twigs and leaves.

You might not give much thought to what happens to the things you flush down the toilet when you have a major clog in your system. Make sure all of your drains have appropriate covers and traps to prevent clogs. We're here to help you out.

Broken or leaky pipes

When pipes are fractured, cracked, or ruptured, it often causes backups and blockages. This emergency calls for the immediate attention of a qualified plumber in Ontario. Some of the most common causes of pipe damage that might lead to a blockage in your system are as follows:

Pipe deterioration caused by age-related corrosion
Joint and seal failures
Activated by soil movement Pipes are under additional stress.

We are a full-service plumbing firm, so we can clear the pipes of any obstructions and fix any broken parts as well.

Nature

It doesn't matter where you live, mother nature will wear you out if you're not prepared. Our team can help you anticipate and respond to any situation that could compromise the integrity of your system, from severe weather to intruding vegetation and tree roots.

Storms

Pipes can become obstructed in several ways during a storm. Intake of water is one such factor. A blocked system is inevitable if you don't keep your home's storm drains clean and your sump pump in good working order. Clogging material, both natural and man-made, can be washed into your system by heavy rain.

Soil movement caused by storms, strong rain, or floods can also be detrimental to your system. Things can break and allow pounds of soil, rocks, and dirt in when the pressure on your system increases.

Roots

Always consider the availability of water before establishing a new forest. No matter how old your pipes are, thirsty plants will eventually find their way inside. The expansion of the root will reduce the efficiency of the drainage system.

Things that shouldn't go down the toilet

You shouldn't put everything you find in your toilet. Knowing these will help you maintain your system running smoothly and efficiently. The following are examples of items that should never be disposed of in a toilet:

Cotton swabs, q-tips, baby wipes, wet wipes, etc.
Condensed Milk
Feminine hygiene products
Don't reuse your towel.
Wraps for Hair
Medications
Oil and grease Used cooking oil
Dental

The bottom line is that anything that isn't trash or water generally shouldn't go down the drain. You can ask our plumbers anything you want to know about what can and cannot be flushed.

Pipes Burst

Repairing a damaged water or sewage line is an emergency situation. We can efficiently find the damaged pipes in your system, clean up any resulting mess, and fix or reline the pipes as required.

Frozen Pipes

It is essential to check on your pipes and take the appropriate measures to avoid frozen pipes during the winter months. These can cause flooding in your system and impede normal operations as the ice melts. Damage to your pipes, backups, and blockages in your system could result from this.

Blockage in the Vent Pipe

Vents in a plumbing system are a crucial but often disregarded component. The stack, or vent pipe, can run from the basement to the attic, releasing sewer gases. Sometimes your vent gets clogged, leading to increased pressure and potentially dangerous levels of sewer gas within your home. If there is a clog in your plumbing system, our Ontario team can take care of it safely.

Using Liquid Drain Cleaner in Ontario vs. Hiring a Professional Plumber

In your home, clogged drains are a common occurrence. Liquid drain cleaner, which is sold in those little bottles at any department store, can seem like it will solve the problem, but it often causes more harm than good.

When you use chemical drain cleaners, the caustic cleaning agent enters the drain and pipes, heats up, and then pushes through the obstruction and the pipe lining. This provides your drain with some little relief, but if all of the debris is not cleared, the clog will reappear. In order to clear your drains, it is recommended to hire a professional plumber rather than using drain cleaner because it is so bad for the environment.

Hiring a qualified plumber guarantees that the right cleaning techniques are used, protecting your pipes. We can produce clean drains that last much longer than DIY plumbing because of our cutting-edge equipment and time-tested procedures.

Can a plunger scratch the surface of my toilet?

Despite the fact that plungers are constructed of a soft, rubbery material, pressing down too firmly on them can cause lines, scratches, and other surface damage. You may discover several simple how-to guides online to fix your toilet if you scratched it by plunging it.

Is using Drano safe for my toilet and plumbing?

If you quickly check the Internet, you'll discover that the most, if not all, knowledgeable plumbers advise against using Drano or any other similar chemical drain cleaner. A chemical reaction in your toilet, drain, or plumbing causes it to become extremely hot, which damages the interior of your pipes.

Drano also doesn't always work. If you use Drano to remove standing water and it doesn't work, you'll be left with a fitting that is full of hazardous chemicals. This makes clearing the obstruction more challenging.

Work plungers?

Yes, if you use it properly! If your sink or toilet is clogged, a powerful plunger should be able to remove the obstruction and restore water flow.

The proper way to utilize a plunger is as follows:

Placing the plunger directly on top of the drain will create a strong seal.

Maintaining the seal, move the tube back and forth for about 30 seconds.

Test it by opening the cover.

If necessary

How do I determine which plunger to use?

Your local department store or hardware shop should carry a variety of plungers. Plunger kinds that are some of the most often utilized include:

A plunger with a cup-style design is a traditional plunger. The best places for cup-style plungers, which feature a wooden stick and a red rubber cup, to be used are tubs and other flat surfaces.

These plugs, often known as toilet plungers, feature a cup on the end that fits snugly in the toilet drain. Flange Style. Any drain can use this, and it's simple to create the seal required to get rid of both small and large jams.

Similar to the flange design, accordion plungers have an odd appearance yet are incredibly robust. It's not ideal for all household drains, but because it generates more pressure, it works best for toilet obstructions.

The standard plunger is inexpensive and versatile, but it lacks the strength to clear out large clogs. We advise using a flange-style plunger for clogs around the house as a result. This ensures that you can repair any drain that needs a good seal.
