Sewer Repair
Tree roots, cracked pipe and repeat backups in the line from your house to the street.
A toilet that runs all night, clogs every week or rocks when you sit down. We repair and replace toilets across Algonquin and give you a flat price before we touch anything. From our office on Esplanade Drive.

Most are one-visit jobs:
A worn or scaled flapper or fill valve lets water trickle into the bowl. You may hear it refill every few minutes.
Many toilets installed in the 1990s were early low-flow designs that don't clear the bowl well.
A failed wax ring or loose flange. Left alone, it soaks the subfloor.
A loose toilet can be reset on a new seal. A cracked bowl or tank needs replacing.
Many Algonquin homes still have the toilets they were built with.
Toilets installed in the 1990s were often early low-flow designs that clog easily. Today's high-efficiency toilets flush better with less water.
Well water minerals build on fill valves and flappers until they stop sealing.
If the basement toilet drains to an ejector pump, only toilet paper should go down it.
Many homeowners replacing original toilets choose a taller, comfort-height model. We'll check the rough-in and the supply line height.
Simple and priced first.
A fill valve costs far less than a toilet.

"Anthony was our technician to take out our old water heater and install a new one as well as install new inside parts to two of our toilets. He was very professional, courteous, respectful of our home, and very pleasant with whom to deal. We were very happy to have had Anthony as our plumber."
"Stephen and Brendon were great. Explained the options, transparent pricing on parts, had quick support from management on bid questions and great communication from scheduling to job completion. Efficient, cleaned up the area and worked well together even though they came at different times for different portions of the job. Definitely recommend them."
