- Drain Cleaning
Whether you own a home or a business in Greater Vancouver at some point in time, you're likely to find yourself faced with a clogged drain. In kitchens, greases and soaps can build up on the walls of your pipes and cause blockages. In bathrooms, showers, tubs, and sinks, they can become clogged with hair and soap, while toilets can become clogged with paper and debris. No matter the cause of your clogged drain, one thing's for sure: You need the help of a reliable plumber to come to the rescue. Fortunately, we offer drain cleaning services designed to tackle the toughest of clogs.
- Sanitary Sewer Lines
The Sanitary sewer line is the drainage pipe that takes away sewage from your home, to the City lines. This line will be underground and will travel out from under the house. In the case of many older homes, the lines may be constructed with clay tile. Unfortunately, these tiles are prone to root intrusion, breakages and dips.
- Snaking/Inspections - If you are experiencing a back up of your system or would just like your line inspected, we have the equipment for the job.
- Repair/Replacements - We also offer the service of repair and replacement of old Sanitary Sewer lines. With our camera equipment we can accurately map the location and depth of the existing line, making the repair / replacement more efficient.
- Perimeter Drainage
Houses should have a perimeter drainage system if they have below ground areas. They are designed to catch rainwater that comes off your roof, down through the rainlitre pipes, and to also absorb ground water. These systems can vary in design and materials used, depending on age. We can perform a camera inspection of your current system to examine the integrity of the pipework and assess whether your system is adequate to protect your home.
- Maintenance - It's very important to perform regular maintenance on a perimeter drainage system. Systems that aren't cleaned regularly can become fully plugged with sediment. This can then lead to moisture, flooding and efflorescence issues within the home. Depending on the age and material used, cleaning should be done every 2-3 years. We offer camera inspections, hydro flushing and snaking.
- Repair / Replacement - We offer repair and full replacement options for systems that are broken or not performing to the adequate levels. All of our new systems are two pipe systems. One line for the roof water, another for the ground water. These lines then tie into a new sump which will then connect to the City storm system. We always obtain permits from the City for such jobs and pass all subsequent inspections.
- New Construction Installation - We also offer perimeter drainage installations for new construction projects.
